You get what you pay for with this place. I had never stayed in a hostel before so it was a new experience for me, I cant say how it compares to others. I got in late when I arrived and was going to early conferences on the two days I wad there, getting up around 6:30. My bunk mates, who I never formally met because I was out of the room most of the time, were asleep whenever I arrived and each morning when I was leaving, so I had to leave the lights off and be very quiet out of respect. There wasn’t any natural light in the space due to a tiny mostly blocked window. The space was very tight for 4 people to a room with little space for storage. I had trouble sleeping, but mainly from city noises. Overall I feel like I got what I paid for. It was clean enough and easy check in/check out. Nothing particularly special about the place.
