    Makes me fell in love with backpacking in my own city
    9.6 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2026
    Clean, ambiance was great! perfect for people on solo trips. loved every part of my stay here. Slept like a baby on the first night despite not having AC. The fan was more than enough! Met lots of people from different parts of the worlds. Loved that they had a common area that brings people together for breakfast and dinner. The world cup also helped everyone have a common ground to enjoy and watch. I couldn’t have asked for a better first solo trips stay! 5/5

    The shower is terrible, very little water, very low water pressure. I was freezing every time I took a shower. Multiple clubs and bars outside, can never get a good nights sleep. No towel provided for free. Cleanliness isn’t the best.

    The location of the hostel is acceptable, however, there are often homeless people sitting on the hillside next to the building, which feels uncomfortable. The hostel itself is a maze of long corridors with no elevator. There is carpet everywhere in the corridors and in the rooms which doesn’t feel very clean. My room had a sink, but the toilet and shower were shared, with several rooms using the same facilities on each floor. The breakfast is very poor: bagels, jam, and some fruit (apples and bananas). What bothered me the most is that guests are required to wash their own dishes after eating and leave them out to dry in the kitchen. The cleanliness of the dishes is questionable, as it depends entirely on how well the previous guests washed them. Another major downside is that all the dishes are reusable plastic. Overall, I would rather skip breakfast altogether than eat at the hostel.
