The room is clean and quiet so far, but the pillow is too flat, making it a little uncomfortable. Additionally, the table and chairs are insufficient for 4 people in a dorm, so I have no place to put my personal items except on the ground, as they are already occupied by previous residents. However, overall, it's a good experience that exceeds expectations, especially with breakfast included.

Friendly staff. Tiny lobby, but large patio. Good private room with balcony. Unfortunately parking garage was full and we secured a spot on the street. But car was broken into via smashed window, ransacked, jackets and other items stolen. We asked for extended checkout to take care of things and police report etc and they offered extra 15 minutes. Disappointing.

Everything was clean, the staff is helpful and the people I met in the common area's are very open and welcoming. I enjoyed my stay here, close to the waterfront and close to the city center. I felt safe going to the store (safeway) after dark from the hostel. Also the view from the balcony with the bridge is a nice plus!
