    Basic rooms

    Unsurprisingly, as this is a hostel location, the guest rooms are quite basic. Still, guests wish that there was more to these rooms, and that they offered a greater range of available amenities.

    negative:

    Poor beds

    Guests note that it can be hard to sleep upon the beds in the rooms at this hostel. They are reportedly poor in their construction, with uninspired mattresses that can feel “springy” and otherwise dissatisfactory. If you're already a light sleeper, you'll want to be wary of this fact.

    negative:

    Poor Wi-Fi

    While there is complimentary Wi-Fi Internet access at this destination, guests report that it doesn't work particularly well. The Internet access reliability is instead said to be spotty, and sometimes does not work at all. As a result, you shouldn't expect to get any business done during your stay.
