This is a hostel, if you can't tell. It's in a great, central location. The wifi worked fine. The elevator does not work all the time and is pretty shady. The room itself was clean and recently remodeled. I did not have any direct interaction with my host, only hostel staffers. My particular room was very dark and quiet at night time, and the bed was decently comfortable. The continental breakfast was pretty low quality- just various breads, bagels, pastries, etc. and coffee- no yogurt, fruit, etc. There was also no soap, shampoo, or conditioner in my room. I had to go purchase it myself, but the staff said I can be reimbursed. Apparently this will be installed in the rooms soon, so may not be an issue.

I had a bad experience at the hostel because they were doing major sanding and painting work in the hallways and stairways on my floor all week, right outside my room. It was disruptive and unpleasant and really made me feel very unwelcome. They should definitely not have put me in that room while they were planning on doing the painting. Of course this likely won't happen to you but just be wary, I don't think that customer service is the first thing on the mind here. They ended up refunding me a large portion of what I paid, so I am somewhat appeased, but I still wanted to give an honest review.

Overall, if it weren't for the painting, it would have been an acceptable yet still underwhelming experience.. You get what you pay for..
