When I arrived, there was a guy drinking and smoking who said he didn't know anything. He gave me the owner's contact because the contact information on the app was wrong, and even then, nobody answered or replied to my message. I don't recommend it, and the place is very strange. The owner didn't respond to confirm anything when I asked for information, so I believe it's a robot when you talk to the place. I had to pay more and go somewhere else. It's a disgrace! I want my money back. ##### Sumaia Stayed 1 night in Mar 2026 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sharon Sep 11, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Should allow cooking ##### Sharon Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Margarita Aug 31, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Best Hostel Perfect space for the price 💯 ##### Margarita Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verkesia Jun 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort It was ok ##### Verkesia Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Skyler Aug 23, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This saved me from spending 80 bucks on a layover, and the other tenants where super respectful and friendly.

Then changed it back. But then when they sent me check-in information, it was with a different address again! Their phone number always goes to voicemail. I slept in my car rather than deal with all that. ##### Miranda Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2024 Verified ### 2/10 Terrible #### Olatunji Mar 18, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Stay here at your peril This hostel stands out as my worst experience in over 20 years of hosteling. I wonder how it was able to be listed on hotels.com. Checking in was to be seamless but after waiting for email for two hours past the check in time of 3.00pm, despite filling all strange details in the link sent by email, I was still stranded at the entrance. I never received any check in details and couldn't even get to stay in that unhealthy environment. The ambience does not portray a safe place for any decent person. Bad place, please don't even think of it! ##### Olatunji Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [2BR The Cardinal C!
