Great hostel in terms of location, breakfast, and facilities. The only downside is it was so hard to sleep because of the street noise, light coming in from outside, and the room being quite hot and stuffy even with the window open.

The showers are dangerous, especially for people with mobility issues---too high off the ground and with no kind of hand rails. It would be nice if there were one or two single or double rooms. Megyn was an absolute delight!
