Flawless

Excellent hostel in so many ways. Very thoughtful design. Cubbies beside beds, lockers, spacious bathrooms. Beautiful building. I loved the herbal lemon ginger tea, thank you.

A top notch hostel!

Ive stayed at a lot of hostels, even internationally, and this is definitely on of the best.
Reginald, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

I recommend, just not my style

I have never stayed at a hostel, but would readily suggest y’all for people who do. The bed was comfortable, bathroom clean, though some were closed so sometimes it was hard to find an open one. My room was right at a major intersection, and it seemed the window was really thin so I couldn’t sleep. That was my biggest complaint. The staff were helpful, cheerful and encouraging. For me, I was on vacation and needed a different experience. Nothing against the facility at all. Now I’ve experienced a hostel and found it’s not for me, though I do appreciate what y’all do.

Pleasantly Surprised!

This was my first stay in a hostel. Had at home privacy feel in the bedroom and great vibes in the common areas. Everything was clean. I will definately be coming back with my friends. I was pleasantly surprised. The location is perfect for Bourbon st. and parades.

I've visited two other HI locations and this was by far the best. Lots of amenities, great common areas, and bathrooms were kept clean. Very convenient to public transportation and in walking distance to lots of attractions, food, and shopping.

It was a hostel. We stayed in room 409. Has its own bathroom. Worth extra cost. Was just like a hotel. Safe and excellent and great location.

8/10 Very good

It was okay. The only thing great about it was the bed was extremely comfy so there is that. There was no where to put my big duffle bag so that is something to improve on is have bigger spaces to lock up bigger bags because of the middle aged men in my room trying going through my duffle bag.
