The receptionists were very helpful and friendly during check-in and check out. They helped me find a parking spot as well during check-in. They maison good hygiene in rooms and bathrooms. The lobby area is vibrant and has good seating, kitchen and pool table to spend time. My only concern was that the linens provided, especially the towel, was roughed up and looked old. They were clean tough. Also note that there are no elevators. So accessibility may be a concern for people with disabilities.

Overall good stay, nice for a hostel and the fact that it’s in the middle of the city is excellent. Bed had weird stains on the pad and undersheets that was brown and I essentially had to lift the mattress and everything on my own because the base pad was disheveled and off. Cleanliness could’ve been upped a decent amount, honestly. There was a bunch of dust on my bed ledge/shelf which is WILD given the amount of turnover here…..

This hostel has everything anyone could ask for while traveling away from home. & close enough to stores and public transportation to go find what you need if you require more. Filtered water is on the premise, area to relax and possibly work, and also a tv on the dorm side is nice for football & basketball games. Highly recommend!
