Run by a lovely hippie holdover desert rat, this hostel is your typical bunks in a large room affair. Decent enough AC to keep you alive and comfortable (even cold) over night. Ridiculously great kitchen (I had to change my boxers after seeing the range) and amazing table for large group meals.
As far as hostels go there isn't much to complain about.
Except the bunk beds. They're frighteningly creaky. One strong earthquake and you've got squished hostelers.
Walking distance to downtown, a handful of decent bars and a punk venue.
Makes me happy.
The many hostel (the movie) accouterments lying about are a bit terrifying - crowbar, saw, hatchet et.al. The torture porn possibilities are endless!
Fortunately our group left with all of our fingers and toes.
