Very clean interiors. Very comfortable beds. Neighbours are quiet and respectful for each other’s privacy and need for peace and rest. Strong water pressure in the shower. Strong wifi. Easy to use washer/dryer for laundry. Huge, spacious and nicely decorated common areas. As an introvert, I especially love being able to chill and relax without being disturbed.

I have made a reservation for a double room that includes air conditioning. My expectations were met and everything turned out as I had anticipated. The location is highly secure and conveniently situated just two minutes away from Fifth Avenue. There are numerous stores in close proximity, and all the necessary amenities for a long-term stay are available.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
