There's no ventilation in the room, so the air just sits there, and the Wi-Fi didn't reach my room. The hostel's cleaning was poor too. They didn't change the bed sheets, just sprayed perfume, and the kitchen wasn't properly equipped or clean. One guest even used the microwave to dry their shoes. The other guests seemed very strange, and some seemed homeless. The manager seemed rude. Our locker was outside the room, and we had to rent a padlock. Towels cost extra too. This hostel shouldn't exist. Please don't book it if you want some peace of mind, mentally or physically.

I felt unsafe the whole time, and the service was basically nonexistent. This was my first hostel stay, and I immediately regretted going for the cheapest option. About $150 worth of clothes were stolen right from my room. Staff brushed it off and made no real effort to check the cameras or even look through the so-called lost and found. Now I have to replace clothes and toiletries. The rooms were freezing and cramped like prison cells. The people I was sharing with seemed sketchy, almost like ex-cons. The janitors didn't clean the beds, they just sprayed perfume around the room. You couldn't leave a single thing unattended for even a couple of minutes without it being stolen. I know I was looking for a cheap hostel, but this one wasn't worth it at all. Extremely mid, and I wouldn't recommend it to my worst enemy.

Location was the one good thing, though there was trash everywhere right outside and the downtown area felt unsafe. I was glad I'd only booked one night and wouldn't stay here again. The beds weren't very comfortable, the place was dirty enough that wallpaper was coming off, and there weren't enough utensils or other kitchen items. The guests felt weird, and the mixed dorm was full of older men because there's no age limit. The policies weren't clearly explained. There was no lock on the mixed dorm door, so anyone could come and go, and the lockers were in the common area, which felt strange. Staff were rude, especially Lucas the manager. DO NOT WASTE MONEY HERE.

Worst hostel stay ever. The women's dorms had no locks, and sketchy men were allowed to sleep on the couch. One guy even drunkenly pleasured himself as we were walking out. DON'T GO!
