"Hostel was well organized and ran, with fun free activities every night. Some of these activities like karaoke can be a bit loud outside rooms that are close to the bar area if you are trying to get rest, but it is quiet by 11pm. Bathroom in shared dorms but also extra bathrooms by kitchen area to use which was really nice and tended to be a bit cleaner than my dorm one."

"The room did look small in the photos but it really is tiny. It's about the size of a shipping container, 8 1/2 x 20 and that includes the bathroom. The room was very clean but the mattress had a lot of stains on it . The only natural light in the room was the sliding glass door which didn't have a sheer curtain and the only way to get privacy was to close the heavy curtain making the room even more cave like. The vanity sink was a wall mounted unit and there was no place to put your toiletries...
