As this was my first experience in a hostel, my main concern was safety of my belongings. Not only did Michelle confirm that lockers were available, but on check in, the staff put me at total ease with security information. (Front desk is manned 24/7 with camera on each floor and outside the building).
All staff were amazingly attentive to every guest, incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and welcoming.
Events are organized every day and listed on the wall at checkin, all the walls on each floor are plastered with iconic images, actual artwork, photos and memorabilia, each floor has clear signs for common spaces, bathrooms and showers.
The photos just don’t do the place justice, neither does a basic description of comradery or, if you’re less social, peace.
Yes, the place is above a bar, its loud and boisterous, but earplugs are available at the desk.
The place is EPIC and I’m really sad I couldn’t stay longer.
