I am sorry to say I had to leave this Hostel after the first night and ask for a refund of the other two days. I am a traveler, and a Returned Peace Corps volunteer, and have stayed all over the U.S. and overseas, and am accustomed to all kinds of situations and yet felt unwelcome and unsafe there. I specifically reserved a female dorm and it was confirmed by the manager at the time, Michael. When I arrived the desk clerk was not familiar with how airbnb works and tried to charge me again. Michael straightened it out. Then he put me in a mixed dorm, saying the female was full even though he admitted that he himself had confirmed it. I had been traveling all day and was tired and didn't complain. The mixed dorm had two bowls of left-over food sitting on the floor. The one guy in there said he would take care of it and did, but it was nasty and never should have been there. There was loud music all night, "ok it's a party scene" I said to myself. In the morning however, while in the bathroom, a man walked by and said some very offensive things about me (I am a transgender female). I felt very unwelcome and unsafe, packed my things and left. He went into a staff only area, so I thought he was staff, Michael said he was "just a friend". Michael did give me a refund for the remaining days and an apology, but even while doing it, the man came down and was yelling that I was a liar and not to give me a refund. It was horrible. I left at 6:30 in the morning, cancelling my other two days, dead tired after traveling the whole day before. I also lost a pair of cherished silver earrings in the rush to get out, and received no response to my email inquiring about them.
