"It is a great spot the location couldn’t have been better. Staff were helpful and I had no issues with the room. It was quiet enough with the other guests present. Awesome bang for your buck!"

Only issue is parking. If you have a car, parking tickets are more than likely.

I can plan trip from the hotel and go. The thing I didn't like was the communication between the Expedia and the hotel.

Susie was great to deal with and very accommodating to our requests. The vibe at the place was tame but also the other guests were respectful and helpful. Great location and walkable to everything.

5.0 / 10.0

If you ever stayed in a hostel before, this one seemed to be about middle of the road. The location is fantastic for attending conferences at the convention center, and Street it's on is very quiet and safe, so the best of the both worlds.

Horrible, very dirty

4.0 / 10.0

The owner does the bare minimum with the building and it's really not a comfortable or a welcoming feeling. He's not taking care of the bedding, the fixtures in the bathroom aren't cleaned by staff. The Kitchen isn't pleasant. He not a pleasant man to talk too 😞. There's no elevator, you have to enter through another door outside and walk upstairs on a dirty carpet. So it's not handicapped accessible 😞. Plus the check in hours start at 4 pm and end at midnight. I have to be honest because I travel and have enjoyed other Hostels because the atmosphere was joyful 😊.

This is the WORST hostel I have ever stayed by far. I think the Manager is truly mentally unwell. The staff couldn't find my reservation. It was very stressful staying here. I don't not recommend staying here to anyone.

It was decent nice bunk mates and staff was helpful.

The staff & guests are friendly and keep to themselves. It’s a walkable location for shopping and nightlife too. However, the unsanitary conditions were too much. While I understand that this is an old property, that’s not an excuse for the general uncleanliness. There were layers of dust everywhere, completely stained mattresses, and pillows with holes too. This is a communal living space, practicing frugality, and that’s ok. It’s not ok to have a stack of filthy oven mitts in the kitchen though. I went into the bathroom and someone had sprayed disinfectant but didn’t bother to wipe it up with a clean cloth. They launder the sheets, but you also have to mop, dust, repair water damaged walls, clean the windows, and remove blackened carpet on the stairs too. Nobody deserves to sleep in filth no matter how cheap the room is.

It’s a hostel so stuff is old, if you’re good with that, this place is great for the price.

Several things not mentioned on the website they take $20 Cash refundable deposit. If you have to use card there is transaction fee to pay the deposit and to get a refund. They charge for a towel also and many others.

James- the manager and staff were all very nice and really helpful accommodating & professional. Be sure to check out by 11am otherwise you can lose your $20 deposit

They wouldn't let me check in. Nothing made sense. All paid for, reserved and just turned away! Said to go back to Expedia for refund. Terrible experience.

The location is perfect, I think is better put the private toilet for every room.

From the lobby/community area it seemed pretty nice. Unfortunately, the age requirement (18) was not transparent on Expedia when I booked a room for my 16yr old daughter and myself, so we were unable to stay. I am STILL hoping for a Refund...

4.0 / 10.0

Low price and proximity to the airport are the best features... but i get the sense that the owner/manager is committed to providing only the absolute minimum in terms of service, upkeep, maintenance, improvements, cleanliness...

Check in closed at midnight. This was not very well documented especially in a party area full of young college students.

It’s a cool looking place in the reception area until the moment I walked in and the front desk attendant told me to go sit down without greeting me, knew this was going to be a problem. They don’t take American passports. I had to wait before someone on the phone called the front desk attendant to let them know if a room was available. I proceeded to read their reviews while I waited and decided NAW this place is not for me. Hotel.com charged me $106 however hostelworld’s price is only $41. It wasn’t my jam so I left and went somewhere else. DON’T do this place.

The private rooms only have bunk beds. They charge an extra $5 if you don’t pay the security deposit in cash. The room was extremely hot and no AC. Considering the price I paid, it’s a rip-off.

The room was small as a jail cell, the furniture looked scary to sit on, the mattress was terrible you felt every spring! They water down the liquid soap in bathrooms and in kitchen. The room felt like a sauna! I will NEVER stay there again
