Ideal place to spend the night, before an early flight or arriving on a late flight. The place is relatively inexpensive and it was clean. I would stay there again. However, it is a shared bathroom, so some travelers may not like that.

The hostel was great in many aspects but it's essential to bring ear plugs. The airplanes will lift and land literally next to the building.
