We had a great stay. The room was directly across from the kitchen so we enjoyed speaking with other travelers. Great downtown location and just a few blocks from the cruise terminal. Bar was hopping on a Friday nite. The huge exhaust fan out the window was great for white noise. Staff was very helpful and happy! Would definitely recommend.

The location was great and the price was reasonable but the property is old and worn out. There is a one-room kitchen/lounge but there was little to no hostel vibe

Someone left a camera in the room on the floor. I can only assume the floors were not cleaned well or they would have found it. The room appeared clean, bed was comfy. Room was very warm.

No elevator was an issue but they got me a room on the second floor. I no longer had a single room I had to share with one bunk mate. In the end it all worked out well. Good place to stay before my cruise left.
