The staff at this property was excellent. The facility was beautiful. The room provided exactly what it was described as. The area around the hostel was beautiful, safe, and near great coffee shops, bars, restaurants a little bit of shopping. Great walkable area but also easy to catch a ride form as well. Parking was hard to find and would have been impossible without the staff directing us to where the paid parking was located. Would recommend paying for the parking as there as rarely to never a street spot open. Overall we had a great stay and would book this place again.
