Pros about staying in this location: 1. once you are there, there really is no need for a car - there are lots of great things in the area to check out day or night. 2. The hostel was very clean and guests seemed respectful of masking rules. 3. Chris was responsive to all messages. 4. My room had a sink, which was gravest. 5. The bathrooms were very clean and well kept
Things they could’ve been done better: 1. I was given a completely different room from what I registered for (room w twin beds) upon arrival, instead given a bunk room with 3 bunk beds. Stay wise, didn’t really change much for me but it was very confusing and it could be easily remedied by updating the listing. 2. The businesses immediately downstairs are open later and the street stays busy especially on weekends - pack earplugs if you are a light sleeper. 3. The blinds in my room did not go down all the way, meaning for privacy I had to draw the dark curtains completely. The lighting in this room is very dim already – having the blinds to let in a little air light and air would’ve been nice. 4. Since it is an old building there is a musty smell issue in my room the whole time.
Overall, things were clean and Chris was responsive, so that’s obviously a win. Just a few things need to tighten up for me to bump them into 5 star territory.
