Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Yuck.

Yuck. Fat bed bugs. Filthy showers. Staff doesn't do proper cleaning. I stayed for several days and there was some crusty stuff on the bathroom faucet. I felt dirtier after using the sink to wash my hands. No one ever bothered to clean them in all the time I was there ! Several of the showers were missing curtains, and someone had cut little holes in the remaining curtains, so they could peek at those who were taking showers without a curtain. Have always had good experiences at other Generators, but not this one.

There is a great vibe here, with relays of teenagers and twenty-somethings visiting in groups, alongside older generation singles, couples, and families. Not having TV was a benefit, not a loss.

Would not recommend this for a first hostel experience. Felt bugs crawling on me at night, dorms had a bad smell, people getting it on in the washroom, roommates had soiled clothes hanging everywhere. This is literally a frat house with 0 AC. Also rooms were not gendered, didn’t make me uncomfortable but as a general safety concern would not travel here alone. People aren't briefed about basic rules and expectations, cleanliness is out the door, guests rummaging at 1/2am with no regard for keeping it down for other people in the room. I checked out 1 day early, def not worth it, pay the extra price and get a hotel. First and last motel experience. Overall just sketchy to be honest.

My room was horrible. I had a family room for my husband, two sons and myself--it was tiny! There was no TV, Wifi was spotty, towels were extra, the place was extremely noisy, there was mold in the shower and the sink didn't drain.
