Comments: Spent a week here. A very welcoming place that you could almost call home. Great place to meet, lots of young travelers. Pancakes every morning at 9am :)Great location for walking downtown. Average Cleanliness, Slept at the top of a Bunk Bed, bit hard on the back but hey for 20$a night, it did the job.

Comments: A bit expensive for me and a female staffer at the desk was quite curt and rude and gave no details of the food, towel, services until i asked; perhaps it's because as one Canadian said to me, you're an American and the cause of the world's current problems.

Comments: If you go there for clubbin' (I mean real clubs with covers, guestlists, Paris Hilton style in crowd of young teenagers driven there by dad), the location is perfect. It's almost all you'll find all around. The staff weren't really helpful when I checked-in at midnight. I asked for a place to eat and the only one they suggest was already close.

Comments: A great hostel to stay at, its very lively, the staff are helpful but it seems to be full of University students so its hard to meet other travellers. Also beware rude people in the rooms, in my room I had two girls who sat up talking and laughing loudly for two nights till 2am making sleeping impossible!

Comments: The staff were extremely friendly and the location is perfect. My only gripe was the noise at night but this was due a specific drunken guest nd does not reflect the hostel as a whole.
