my first hostel experience!! it was super clean (spotless even!), the rooms were secure with two locks on the door !! obviously very basic amenities but the system they have in place were very efficient and worked very well. we did not have any problems with noise, apart from the doors closing when people come in at night; for that i suggest to bring earplugs and the problem will be sorted!! the location is EXCELLENT; the walk to the central station was only 13 mins (we are fast walkers) and this allows you to get connected to the whole city with ease.
as of nearby businesses, there is an italian around the corner, a 7 eleven right next door, and a joe and the juice right on the same street. it was very central and we could walk comfortably to all parts of the city…. albeit quite long walks (we do love a wonder!!).
the people in the hostel mainly kept to themselves, which created quite a peaceful environment, and the women’s showers were always clean and comfortable. an overall fantastic first hostel experience and i would come back!!
