I liked that they had coffee and a full kitchen we could make our own meals. Very clean and surprising very safe. Could use better pillows and could provide there guess with wash cloths not just a single towel.

Great spot, neighborhood pretty good but a couple of surrounding areas not great, but trolley stop really close by, so not really a concern. Staff super helpful, local knowledge always the best. Property itself is the kind of really cool spot you come to know using hostels when travelling.

It would’ve been a nice and interesting place to stay if there was more upkeep. I also found a syringe and needle in one of the toilet stalls, also the showers were behind a screen door which exposes them to the outside which is not a pleasant experience for winter temperatures.

Everything was perfect. Would always go back there

My new favorite hostel 👍
2-night trip

10/10

Perfect budget accommodation. We were in the Green House and had the "Ocean View" room LOL (it overlooks the pool). The beds were comfortable, the AC worked fine, and it was perfectly quiet at night. Never had to wait for the toilet or shower down the hall. The shower was decent but the sink definitely needs more water pressure. Safe area, had no issues parking the car on the street. Would stay here again.

10/10

The hostel is a good place to stay if your looking for the hipster vibe and the staff are both friendly and respectful to everyone.
1-night trip

6/10

The buildings and rooms were unique and private. I wish we could have used the pool but we were a little self conscious because of all the young adults.
