This is my first time staying here, and this is by far the best Hostel experience I have ever had in my entire life. I love coming here because I get to meet starving artist and intellectuals from all across the globe. Oh the artwork is exceptional.

Will stay again and again!

I liked the area! It was very convenient with lots of great bakeries, fast food, restaurants, and bars nearby. Transportation was a breeze, walking, citibike rentals nearby, Ubers, metro, and bus. Check in was smooth, bed sheets etc. were clean and locker was a good size. I liked using the kitchen, freezer, and fridge for the snacks and food I bought. There’s also a grab and go and a mini restaurant at the hostel that is decently priced. The outdoor area is nice and there is a separate upstairs area that has more chairs and privacy. I enjoyed my stay and liked that there was all ages there, from like 22-62. The shower stalls and bathrooms are clean and private. You can choose from all gender, male or female.

Great for budget travelers

Surprisingly wonderful! Very clean and quiet. Stayed in an 8 bed dorm. Everyone was respectful of each other. Bed was comfortable with a privacy curtain, charger and light. Lockers were available to store luggage and/or valuables. Lots of food options from low to high end in immediate vicinity. Close to subway stations and easily accessible to mid/downtown neighborhoods. I would absolutely recommend this to those traveling on a budget.
