There is a great vibe here, with relays of teenagers and twenty-somethings visiting in groups, alongside older generation singles, couples, and families. Not having TV was a benefit, not a loss.

Would not recommend this for a first hostel experience. Felt bugs crawling on me at night, dorms had a bad smell, people getting it on in the washroom, roommates had soiled clothes hanging everywhere. This is literally a frat house with 0 AC. Also rooms were not gendered, didn’t make me uncomfortable but as a general safety concern would not travel here alone. People aren't briefed about basic rules and expectations, cleanliness is out the door, guests rummaging at 1/2am with no regard for keeping it down for other people in the room. I checked out 1 day early, def not worth it, pay the extra price and get a hotel. First and last motel experience. Overall just sketchy to be honest.

The room was clean and modern. The location is around 10 mins walk to train station. Common area is nice. However, the room didn't have fan and air-conditioning and was quite hot. The street was noisy in the night.

Not bad for a hostel, clean for the most part, and decent amenities and product. Staff would rather have personal conversations than check people in and the front door is locked even during the day, the only way you’re getting in is to somehow get the front desks attention.
