Got bed bugs from the carpet

Bill is very business like and treated each situation equally and professionally. The building is older but we had clean linens. The conversations were stimulating with people from all over the world. Bring your phrase book, it will be fun. And VERY easy access to bus and Metro train into the city, government buildings and tourist sites. There were maps to borrow and magazines to read. Cable TV in the living room and a community fridge and kitchen(very convenient).

The hostel is fine, I stayed at a lot and thats one of the good one. Just the location is not the best but you can still see tha city well. For that price perfectly fine.

Small hostel with great host. Felt like home away from home. Nice double beds & free computers with internet. Location OK on bus route or can walk 20blocks to downtown.
