The staff and guests were all just genuinely nice, which seems to be a rarity these days. For a hostel, it was perfect. Not too many guests, no long waits for a shower, really laid back and accommodating, great front porch to chill on with a swing and long bench, and right in the middle of a strip of bars and restaurants. Free parking lot, easy public bus access, coffee and food available. The home was old but clean and cozy. It didn't have the usual feel of a bunkbed style multi-room share hostel. Highly recommend!
