Very nice place. I stay here every time I come to Philly. My only complaint was one of the room mates, who was hounding me in the middle of the night because I started coughing and sneezing. Explained to him that I could not help sneezing, and that if he didn't want people to sneeze and cough in the room with him, then he should had gotten his own personal room.

The bedding I was given was gray instead of white, worn and frayed at the edges, the room smelled and was extremely musty I'm certain from other travelers. But I could no stay there, I was willing to lose the cost of the room and stay at a nearby hotel for 10xs the amount.

My first time at a hostel and it wont be my last. Staff was friendly and explained the rules and where everything was. Hostels are "self serve" and they had great accommodations and amenities. I booked an 18 bed dorm by accident but rolled with it. Everyone respected everyone's space. Room and bathrooms were very clean.
