Honestly it’s great if you’re stopping by and quick in and out. The bathrooms are a bit aged and so is the property but it gets the job done. I thought the breakfasts were going to be premade but you have to make them yourself. No real issues the staff were super friendly and nice! I would definitely come back again if I need to be in the area

Amazing location and stay, 10 minute walk from the D line. Staff went above and beyond to correct a mistake I made by selecting the wrong dorm and were able to get me a room regardless. Room was clean, beds were clean and the place was secure. Very much so recommend staying here 10/10.

I really loved my stay at the Rumi Hostel. I met nice people and felt safe during my entire stay. The bed hurt my back, I believe it may not have been firm enough. Other than that, it really was a beautiful stay. I’d like to come back some day soon.
