Staff was lovely! Very nice vibe, and would be perfect for anyone looking to meet new people at a hostel. Could get a little loud at night with no soundproofing, but to be expected. The private queen room had a very comfortable bed and spacious bathroom with complimentary soaps, which I am not used to at a hostel!
