First time in a hostel and it was a great experience. They allowed us to check in early since our flight was a morning one. Convenient to venue we went to and all the local eatery spots. I would’ve given it a 5 stars if they had ac in the room. For a small fee of $4 you can also store your luggage in a room till your flight. Definitely would recommend people stay there.

Great location, and you generally get what you pay for. There is no 24-hour service. The sink is quite small, and luggage storage after checkout costs $4 per room. There is no housekeeping service, and towel changes cost $2 each.
