Overall a Great Stay

First time in a US hostel. Helpful employees and volunteers. Great location. Bunk bed was a bit noisy but comfortable. Almost always a bathroom free. Diverse breakfast choices. Laundry was quite confusing, but anemployee helped me out. Very clean spaces. Only negative was how many guests walked around talking and laughing loudly in the halls and letting the heavy door slam.
