"Pros: Alright, so: location? Perfect. Staff? Super friendly. 24h café downstairs? Bless. For a hostel, it ticks the boxes:big dorm rooms, solid Wi-Fi, big communal kitchen with all the shared gear you need. Cons: But let’s dive in, because this place has layers. Like an onion. A very crowded, buzzing onion. wow was it crowded. I’m an introvert and I was emotionally prepared to speak to maybe 1.5 humans a day. Instead, it felt like rush hour in a train station. Want to cook dinner at a normal time? Good luck. You’re better off starting at 2pm or pretending a banana is a full meal. The bathrooms were clean but… the showers? Glass doors. Almost fully transparent. I don’t know who decided hostel-goers needed to display their bathing routine to the world, but it was giving accidental performance art. And now: the flies. Not one or two. I’m talking dozens. The big, bold ones that land on your toast and look you in the eye. In the kitchen, common area, rooms, everywhere. At one point I considered just naming them and accepting their presence. So yeah, come for the location, stay for the café, mentally prepare for a lot of people and even more wings." ~Elissa
