Pros (+) The building is beautiful, clean and service is good too. The pancakes and eggs were tasty and installations were great.
Cons (-) The mattress could be more comfortable and I wish the area wasn’t so full of junkies.

Pros (+) I'm a traveler from Japan and this was the first time to use a hostel. This hostel has really nice facilities. I enjoyed good service.
Cons (-) The place around the hostel was a little dirty and there was few clean restraurants. But it's okay because I could go to the market street easily from this hostel.
