It's a hostel that can pack people into a private room. Window was missing glass slat. Nosound insulation, so noisy until 11 PM. AC made squeaky noise. Plumbing was loose and you could see sunlight through the edges. Mattresses were old, one was overly firm, one was soft. Common areas, kitchen, and pool were nice. Staff is really friendly and takes pride in the community environment.

Excellent staff! Very friendly and accommodating. Such a happy, and inclusive community vibe. Extremely affordable, and convenient. I wish I’d booked here from the beginning. Don’t think about booking one night just to be sure you like it, with thoughts of extending your stay. It’s unlikely they’ll have availability. Jump right in if you’re looking for an affordable, friendly, no fuss stay, with parking, and everything within walking distance. I will definitely stay here again.

Everything was great and everything went smoothly. Staff was accommodating and offered dinner service. Only con is the dustiness that's caused by it being on a main road but location is good!
