    The staff were very friendly and helpful. Accommodation was comfortable and secure. The bathrooms were few for the number of people who shared it, but it was not a big problem since most guests were on different schedules. There is only one chair in the dorm room, but downstairs there is a comfortable and relaxing area to hang out in with a television, wifi, and couches/tables. Overall I enjoyed my stay here and recommend it to others looking for a relaxing hostel thats close to the waterfront.
