The interior courtyard was very unique and cute; lots of plants and stringed lights. This is a good place if you want to be in a central location, and if you like socializing/partying with new people. Its not the quietest place, due mostly to the bars open late along Long Street. I stayed in January, and the room got fairly warm even with a window open (no AC or fans). The staff was friendly and helped me out with early check-in, as well as checking-out when I wasnt able to do so in-person before 12pm (I had to be out of the hostel before the office opened in the morning, and the staff were very accommodating in relocating my packed luggage to the storage room).
