Record store underneath the building, which is cool. Didn’t like how there wasn’t any conditioner in the showers despite it being advertised.

Only stayed for one night. 1. Got allocated to a room without any available bed first so I talked to the receptionist and ended up in a new room. I guess there were mistakes with the system. 2. Facilities are good, rooms have high ceiling and every bed has individual outlet and curtain, however there’s a huge cupboard which I can’t even open on the wall above my knee, and when I sleep my knee hit it a few times through out the night accidentally, and I’m only 5’4, I can’t imagine how tall people could survive this. 3. One of the shared toilets was a bit dirty but I guess it’s unavoidable for hostels. Overall I gave 4 stars as the facilities are good but to be honest not live up to what I expected especially the anti-human design of the cupboards.
