Review: "This was a very bizzare property. It’s NOT a hotel. It’s a 3 Bedroom apartment with locking bedroom doors. There is a common living room and common kitchen.

Review: Honestly, this was one of the best hostels I have ever been to. It really made my whole stay amazing. The accommodations were clean, cozy, and comfy, in a great location, and everyone was super friendly and helpful. The rooftop deck and bar were especially awesome. Jamie especially made my stay special, chatting with me a bunch my first night and organizing an amazing bar crawl (better than the official one) my last night.
