Cleanliness:

Sheets, Every Time - Sheets are washed after every single

hostel is professionally cleaned three times a week. Forget your
preconceptions of all hostels being dusty and grimy. Hostels don't have
to be dirty to be cheap!

maid is not around.
- Slippers
at the Door - We ask that everyone leave their outdoor
shoes at the door to help keep dirt, mud and rain outside, where it
belongs.
