Cool property. The front desk worker was cool. He gave us a solid 15 minute tour of the place and explained the history. Very nice guy. It was a great location for New Years Eve. We could walk to all the bars and clubs for the girls and gays and eat at some available open options. Centrally located for sure. Super loud all night due to New Year’s Eve though so don’t plan on getting any peace and quiet until 230/3am and it’s a hostel - so even though we had a private room, we were next to a public room where everyone woke up and started making noise at like 8am. Other than that, great for partying and walking safely to a ton of fun things.
