Traveled with group
Disliked: Staff & service
JBR is always nice and the proximity to the area was amazing. Nonetheless, the hostel felt very run-down and the people checking us in almost seemed like they had no idea what was going on with our reservation. They were nice, but the check-in process was abysmal.
