We had a 14-hour overnight layover and didnt want to sleep at the airport. The hotels by the airport are insanely expensive but the trains run 24/7, so we decided to try this place out. It's quirky and has wonderful artwork/murals all around. It's so centrally located that we were able to absorb a LOT of the local flavor during just a 2 hour morning walk. Will definitely go back there and spend more time.

Maybe it was just by virtue of being in one of shared dormitory rooms, but it was so hot and stuffy that, even with all the windows open, it was difficult to sleep and often woke up dehydrated. The staff were very helpful, though

Bustling with People, Secure Building
The building was lovely and easy to locate. Check-in went very smooth and the room was a bit tight, but the roommates were friendly. The biggest issue was that there wasn't much room at all to access the lockers under the beds to get to your luggage. The shower was spacious, and separate from the toilet. There was a working elevator, and lots of activities going on at night for guests. Breakfast was delicious, and even though there were a lot of people going in and out, but I felt secure the entire time.
