Liked: Cleanliness
The biggest thing to be aware of is that there are no locks which was a little surprising when sharing a room with 12 people. The lobby and kitchen and bathrooms are quite pretty

Amazing staff, nice fixtures, and classy for a hostel. This place is always clean and plenty of bathrooms and sinks to accommodate the constant turnover of guests. There is diversity of cultures spanning all age groups. I would stay here again.

Amazing. The best view. The best room. The best location. The best staff. The best price. My first hostel in over 30 years. It was the best. I stayed in a room with a bathroom. It was immaculate. The bed was comfy. There was a large television geared up.with Netflixs. A small spot for tea and coffee. The bathroom had a clean shower. The shower gel left a lingering lavender scent. The bathroom mirror huge.

Pretty but very pricey.
Aesthetically very nice, but not nearly enough bathrooms upstairs by the rooms, always had to go downstairs. Also super expensive for what you get.
