Unfortunately, the stay was not good for me. I was put in a room with roommates that made me uncomfortable and with their outdoor equipment taking over the whole room. So I reached out to the property management. They couldn't so much about it so I hung out at the living room couch and left early morning.

This hostel was good. Beds were comfy but the room was a bit small. The kitchen/dining area was nice but we could only find one bowl. Overally it was a good place to crash for the night with some nice views in the area

It was a decent stay. We liked how clean the room was and the other guests were also quiet and respectful. The hostel is a little run-down but overall clean and safe.
