The place is just off the Parque metro stop which is great. The staff is very friendly. The people staying there were cool and pretty respectful. The hostel has a nice size kitchen. Small garbage can in the kitchen means bags of garbage sitting around. Be aware that the dorm rooms are on the street and its noisy. Also people come and go all night ringing the door bell. That too is really loud. There are only 2 bathrooms, toilets in with the baths/showers. So getting up early or showering late at night is optimal. If you have to use the toilet, plan to be waiting in line in the AM. But the place is nice. The people are nice and helpful. Location is a 20 min walk to center. Great for the price!
