Good location and price for pretty clean and safe hostel, would recommend

Pros: Felt much more safe than other hostels i have stayed in. Stayed in a 12 person mixed dorm but there only ended up being maybe 6 people in there including my friend and i. Beds were pretty large for a hostel and comfortable enough. Had the option of two mixed bathrooms or one all female bathroom which was very appreciated. Bathrooms were relatively clean for a hostel and had plenty of stalls for the amount of people there. Staff was super helpful and kind. Lockers had locks included so you didn’t even need to bring your own. 20 min walk from city center and felt like a safe area. Cons: No

Decent for 1 night

Pros: Nice staff, good location Cons: 3 bunks per bunk bed (too much), the kitchen opened too late every morning, not enough space in common areas for all the people. Stove was too complicated to figure out how to use. Showers also difficult to maneuver water temperature.
