    I was surprised to find this hostel so great :) because it is a big, massive hostel :D spans along many floors, therefore there are a lot of people. I only stayed two nights, and outside of the weekend, but everything was kept clean, the bunk beds...

    Private room was comfortable and relatively spacious. The desk was a nice touch, as were the USB ports and the many charging points throughout the room. The onsite staff were absolutely exceptional, check in and out was a breeze.
