Located in a great area, but heater went out when we stayed and staff did their best to accommodate.
This was a wonderful stay with a fantastic location.
The staff were friendly and very inviting.
The hostel alone is very safe and secured.

Easy check in, staff were friendly. Stayed on the 5th floor which had a shared full kitchen that was nice and convenient. No Elevator so be prepared to do some stairs. Good area out back to smoke or sit outside. Overall, not a bad stay.
Check in was easy and instructions on how to access rooms and the building were thorough and clear. Staff was very polite and kept areas clean. Check out was easy process. As a hostel, its amenities were enough and more as far as availability of clean linen, bathrooms and showers, and kitchen. Great location - relatively quiet.
The building is very well maintained, with bathroom and kitchen on each floor. The furniture in the room, especially the dresser, could use some update.

Nice staff , the heater system was very hot, needs tv.
The staff was very friendly, courteous and professional. The shared spaces (kitchens, bathrooms) we're always clean. I didn't get to experience the open backyard space, but I'm sure it falls right in line with the other shared spaces. The room I rented was very clean too. The only standout was the armoire - it was getting of age and not able to hold my clothes on hangers as it was shifting sideways to fall/collapse. I recommend this place for solo travels, especially last minute travels that are in need of something highly affordable.

It was clean and comfortable for what I paid, but the room lacked amenities and was cold with limited heating.
The room was clean and the staff was nice and helpful, but i stayed on 2nd floor in the rear, noise from the upper floor was constant. And cigarette smoke smell came from downstairs, really really bad.
The thing that I missed the most was the ability to control the room temperature other than opening/closing the window since it had a heater but didn't have an ac. Otherwise, everything was really good, even the shared bathroom.
