Comfortable, central, friendly-but hard to sleep!
The hostel is in a very central, great location close to 6th street. The check-in process was easy and they were able to hold my bags since i got in early. There is a kitchen area and shared bathroom with 2 women's toilets and i believe 3 showers. The room was standard fare 8-bed hostel but it was comfortable and i was able to take a midday nap before dinner. The biggest complaint: the hostel is above a bar/club, which might be great for hangining out-- but the music and vibrations were SO loud until 2am that i could not sleep. You could feel it in the room/bed. I had earplugs too so it was less about volume and more about not being able to get away from FEELING the music! Made for a tough time when i had to get up at 4am for my flight!

There was a very loud party that lasted until 2/3 in the morning. There is no free parking, you have paid parking on the street, that's very expensive! And I paid 50 dollar for "sleeping" in bunk bed in a dorm, ridiculous! Really a shame! In Holland we call this geldklopperij

Prime place
Really the only option, prime location in the center. By all the nightlife and restaurants. Walkable to the university and capital. Easy 15 min bus to parks. Great WiFi, comfy beds although the pillow is flat. Bathrooms fine. Kitchen was hangout area and it had the basics. Staff was good.
