Summary: This is my 3rd time staying in a hostel, and, sadly, the worst I've had so far. Some of the staff seemed like they had better things to do than to be there, and the attitude showed throughout the visit. My partner and I had a private room that shared a bathroom with 3 other private rooms, and housekeeping missed a day of cleaning the bathroom. Our mattress was stiff and uncomfortable with scratchy sheets. The common hostel kitchen was often unkempt (including one day when the water stopped working) with used dishes piling up, "cleaned" dishes of varying cleanliness, and, despite them asking us to label our food with check-in/check-out dates, there was food in the fridge WEEKS past labeled check-out dates. It would have been nice if the hostel had a dedicated common kitchen deep-cleaning day (as other hostels often do), but it's fairly clear that they don't and that kitchen sanitation isn't a priority. It was also really sad to see housekeeping staff taking the free food left behind by guests - seemed to me that they aren't paid well enough to afford their own food. I appreciate HI's overall mission, but I do think that a greater understanding of our world can include them taking better care of their guests too.
