A really nice place to stay the rooms are clean, the kitchen is well-equipped and organized, the staff are super friendly, and Cody, the manager, makes the hostel feel welcoming. The backyard is also a cool spot to relax and hang out.

This hostel is fantastic. The rooms are always clean and comfortable, and the kitchen has recently been updated with great new equipment and is kept really organized. The whole place feels welcoming, and the staff are friendly and helpful. I’d definitely stay here again.

I’ve stayed in many hostels but none have made me feel as welcomed and at home as this one especially with the new manager Cody in charge.
