Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I had a pretty good hostel experience. They had a decently priced breakfast available, and the included wifi was decent. The bathrooms were also decently clean. I would go back. The only problem was that it was overpriced because of a certain pop star being in town when I stayed there.

The room was very hot and stuffy, the small air con did nothing except move warm air around. Balcony door was locked, couldn't open for fresh air. Impossible to sleep all night. I wouldn't recommend.
