Comfy Privacy Pods

“I stayed in a dorm room with four pods, and they were incredibly comfy, allowing for that much-needed privacy which can be hard to come by in a hostel setting. I felt relaxed and well-rested every night!” view full review

Clean and Accessible

“The bathrooms were always clean and well-maintained. I especially appreciated the bathrooms on the first floor, which had music and plenty of mirrors. They were much nicer than those on the upper floors!” view full review

Great Common Areas

“The common areas were well-furnished and inviting. There was plenty of seating available, and it created a great atmosphere for mingling with other guests. I enjoyed hanging out here after a long day of sightseeing.” view full review
