    Exceptional

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Booked a last-minute one-night stay. The staff was welcoming and gave me a tour of the place. Great amenities, wish I had had more time to spend there!

    Relaxed atmosphere. Friendly and helpful owner. Nice kitchen area, good to meet other travellers. I loved the bunk beds, equipped with reading lights and plugs for electronics, and the curtain gives a little privacy. I would stay there again. Entrance not easy to find, squeezed between two shops. It’s opposite to Holiday Inn. Could be better signposted.

    Good stuff movies clean place respectful other tenant that stays here

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Staff were very nice and welcoming, gave great recommendations for the area. Facility was clean inside and beds were very comfortable. Temperature inside was warm and rather humid despite the AC. Parking is very difficult if you do not reserve a space for $10+ per night, the area does not allow street parking overnight. Neighborhood is pretty rough. A few guests came into the dorm late into the night (2-4am) dropping cans of beer and making a fair bit of noise but other than that very quiet. Would likely choose a hotel if prices were only 20-30% more.
