The staff were wonderful, we did run into some hiccups with the door alarm going off and since it wasn’t able to get fixed they switched us into another room. The breakfast was descent for being a hostel :) I will have to unfortunately complain about how the room wasn’t really clean nor the bathroom.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The beds and little cubes are great. Some of the rooms at the far ends don’t get much air at night, so try to get rooms a bit more in the center. The stairs are very steep, so if you have issues with climbing stairs this could be an issue. The carbonara and carpaccio were delicious. The watermelon margarita was not great.
