Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The hostel is clean, the breakfast is good and the kitchen has everything you need to cook your food. The lockers in the room are big, so a carry-on and a backpack will fit easily. They also have bathrooms outside of the room, which makes it easier to use a different one if the one close to your room is occupied. I definitely recommend this place

I love staying here! The guy with the glasses and thick mustache is my least favorite but everyone else is so kind and nice! The word is starting to get out about this best kept secret and it’s starting to get a little wild, SO you had better visit quickly before it gets any more wild!
