OMG First of all, I have to say that I had my first time in a Hostel at the Walrus, and I was travelling alone - so I was really nervious. HOWEVER this place is absolutly amazing! It is not noisy at all, the bedroom's doors have locks and the guests I stayed with were so respectful - the breakfast is healthy and you can eat all you want. You can keep your important stuff in a locker room which is accessed only by the staff. I just loved the whole experience!!! - AH! and the mojitos at the bar are great!! Thank you for your
