The employees kept calling me an idiot and kept trying to "dominate" me. I'm not sure why they kept following me around but it seems like they were trying to entice me to fight them, in order to get me arrested.

Staff is very responsive and friendly. Opens your mind to the world with transient occupants coming from different parts of the world and share experiences & travel hacks. Practical accommodation if your day is busy traveling around doing touristy stuff! Will definitely recommend to friends!
