This was a great place to stay for a hostel alternative. The price was right, and fit the bill. I checked in late at night, so Richard had arranged another staff member to help get me checked in. I had chosen one of the smaller rooms for a week, with a single bed. There wasn't much natural light coming into the room, and I was told that I would get a room with cable tv. However when I checked in, I found that room wasn't available. It still worked out though, since I was out most of the day and some nights as well. I really just needed a place to sleep, and hold my things.

I had an immediate issue with my door lock not working properly, but once I brought it up, Richard had it fixed within 15 minutes! I didn't talk too much with my housemates, but they were all very friendly. Overall, it was an enjoyable stay for the price! The best part was the location. It's a very walkable area, with 24hr stores within a couple blocks, and bus stops within minutes. I felt safe walking in the area, and Richard was there when I needed something.
