If you’re not afraid to walk a little bit, the hostel is perfectly situated in between a lot of the attractions and nothing is too far to not walk. However, there are a few different bus stations just five minutes from the hostel.
The bathrooms were especially dirty in comparison with the rooms. If you want to go to that hostel (which I really can recommend for that money) you should pack some flip-flops to be able to use the bathroom.

Do you like black mold and bed bugs??
Nothing good to say, this hostel was absolutely disgusting. Mold on our ceiling, shower, garbage left in basket when arrived in room. The shared bathrooms had sanitary napkins on the floor and were dirty. Blood on the curtains in our room. Our sheet wasn't even on the bed. The lock on our door was faulty. We woke up with little clusters of small red bumps and ended up finding a bed bug.
The "available parking" was street parking. The street we parked on was filled with needles and drug paraphernalia. Our car window was smashed and broken into. The man working the front desk wasn't helpful and could have cared less that we were robbed. The wifi was slow. The bathrooms were rarely available. The bathroom didn't have a curtain and people across could see in the bathroom. The only good thing about our experience was leaving.

OkayDec 20145.1
I won't repeat this experience in the future.
The staff is helpful to my needs, but the location was a bit scary for solo traveler (gals)
Bed was rough, I had a hard time falling to sleep. The bed was so hard on the top bunk. Waking up with a stiff back! There weren't parking at site. I had to go a block away for it. It was an uneasy feeling to felt while traveling there.
