We really liked the location near the colleseum. We like that it was convient easy and affordable. Honestly I misread "hostel" as hotel, but was really pleasantly surprised when I saw it was a hostel but this nice. Your area is private and comfortable and it's great if you are doing things in the city all day. Great place to lay your head down.

A hotel with basically unmanned management and distinctive features is highly recommended
This hostel is very clean and tidy. Probably the cleanest I've seen in my life. Even the kitchen was clean and had everything I needed to cook a simple dinner. The room is cozy with new furniture. Although it says there is no parking, I messaged the front desk and they allowed me to park on the property for a small fee. Seems like they allow it if there is availability.
Everything was clean and organized. Very comfortable stay. The staff was very accommodatiing with service timely. Street parking is very limited to none if you arrive after working hours. I would stay again. Thank you!
It was horrible. We followed the instructions and found a whole family in our room going in an out in their pajamas. Turns out they were told the same thing buildinf 617 room 1. We obviously didn't have a place to stay for the night so we had to leave. Contacted the company and they refuse to acknowledge another guest was in our room. They also refuse to give me a refund. Also absolutely no parking as this location is smack down in the middle of a narrow street neighborhood.
Forty first place is clean, comfortable beds, quiet atmosphere, WiFi works great, and close to eateries. Management responds to any questions in a timely manner.

The room has a strong paint smell and feels dusty. Checked in however, didn’t stay and left as-is. I couldn’t put up with above conditions. Customer service was average as its best. I felt that an AI or auto responder was answering my concerns.
They need to improve check-in process. I had to contact them to get the instructions. Guy at the office forgot to send me room code & wifi info. Posh, new looking hostel but kitchen sink has some mold. Very clean bathroom. Firm mattress. Standard queen room is overpriced consid. how small it is & neighborhood isn't great. But I had a huge closet & house is walking distance to BMO Stadium & USC.
Very clean but cold with no ability to change temperature. I tried to use the oven veggie I even put anytime in every fire alarms went off on the floor. The cleanliness was amazing but I can't stand being cold for no reason. Also the bathroom smelled like mold after showering.
