Ceci n\'est pas le plus beau des hostels que vous n\'aurez jamais vue mais je vous le conseil fortement. Le gars qui tient la place, Bill es simlpement génial. Il est vraiment accomodant et généreux. Les lits son doubles et si vous êtes un couple et que ovous dormez dans un seul lit il vous fait un escompte. Le cartier semble plus ou moins sécuritaire mais nouc n\'avons eu aucun problèmes. De plus il y a un dej gratuit qui es la toute la journée. Lainie, from Canada ~ 20th Dec 2011
