Liked: Staff & service
We booked for 2 people and ended up in one bunk - probably our fault, but it wasn't clear on the website. There was only one outlet which was a bit of a struggle. The room was clean :) The bathrooms were fine, but multiple of them were missing soap for almost the entirety of our stay (5 nights). Location was great! Right up against a nice park + the museum district, with easy access to public transportation.

My 3rd time staying at this hostel. Wonderful location and amazing staff. Also visited the other locations/bars they have and was pleasantly surprised. I travel alone and opted for an all female dorm this time and it was perfect. Thanks for another great stay!
