I was reading the tripadvisor reviews and one of them mentioned drug dealers hanging out there. And the fact its 82 out of 91 (bottom 10%), and no longer has the selling point of being next to Happy Hiker is really putting me off staying there.
I notice they have a shuttle too but $1/mile/hiker doesn't seem like such a bargain when there's a $5 bus going by 4-5 times/day.
What I'm looking for:
$70 or less for a shared room
Laundry machines on site
Clean
Close to something like a good restaraunt, grocery store or transportation.
Bonus points for free hot breakfast.
