Everything was good, the only suggestion I would give it’s to put charges closer to the beds. The only 2 by the kitchen for everyone to use.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
One of the girls at reception is really lovely and helpful and was able to use critical thinking. Another on the other hand followed a very robotic approach and wouldn’t let me wait in the comfortable room with my friend while I waited for my room to be ready. This was minutes after I’d “checked out”. I was trying to extend my stay but I had to move rooms, so when the cleaners had finished doing whatever it is that they do (not much since guests are required to make and strip the beds and I never saw them clean the rooms) I could’ve just moved my belongings three doors down. Instead, they thought it was a better idea for me to take 5 trips down to the ground floor and leave my belongings on the ground. A strong lack of care from this place for guests because of simplicity in policy. Power tripping security guard also threatened to evict me while I was talking to the receptionist, asking questions about leaving my luggage on the 5th floor instead of taking 5 trips to the ground floor. So yeah that’s great. I was feeling good about this hostel mainly due to the first girl I was dealing with and it all was undone by that security guard and receptionist and left a bad taste. If only reviews were taken seriously by people. I guarantee this will just be read and then ignored because “there’s two sides to the story” and someone won’t agree with me

Conveniently located
I had booked a single private room but was given a room with six beds. Weird, but ok. They did react quickly when I told them the window didn’t latch, and when they realized it couldn’t be fixed quickly I was moved to another room right away. This second room also had six beds. Everything was clean, staff was friendly, common space on ground floor was cozy. Tram stops directly in front, there’s a convenience store at the corner, and a grocery store half a block further.

Cold room
Hostel was great, room was good, location excellent. I would give it 5 stars if room was warm. The heater was insufficient for the room size and even at the maximum setting, it was cold inside.
