This hotel provided a unique and fun experience! We really enjoyed the decorations and ambiance throughout the hotel. The rooftop was a great oasis from the city with music, pool, and bar service. The staff were very friendly and great! The only things were we didn’t have a coffee maker in our room, the WiFi wasn’t great, and no capability to stream any services on the television. Overall experience was great and would definitely stay here again!

This time we booked a Quad dormitory, the two bunk beds were really comfortable, one of the lights inside the bunk bed wouldn't turn off I guess it was sensor activated. The pictures gave the impression it was bigger. The quad is very convenient for young people they had lockers to keep your things safe (unless its a full size suitcase. The Quad room does not have a hair dryer or mini fridge. Did not review the details in the room description that is on me. Its a very good low cost option. Private spotless bathroom.

Very nice lobby area with restaurant attached. Rooftop patio was a pleasant surprise. Great ambiance there with a chill vibe. I was in a 4 person Room, bathroom was clean. Only thing I didn’t like was how uncomfortable the beds were. Other than that it was a good stay.

The room was fine, very basic. No clock and the refrigerator didn’t work. Otherwise, I really just needed a place to shower and sleep so it worked.
