BUG review
Considering some of the other options, USA Hostel is a real gem. It is spacious, clean and organised. Staff arrange nightly meals in the fully stocked kitchen and the upstairs bar has great atmosphere and cheap drinks. The outside patio is always crowded with young, hip, fun-loving travellers. Attentive and cheery staff make the place feel like home, the kind of atmosphere that makes you want to stay an extra night. They provide free Wi-Fi, a tiny library and a movie room, as well as day trips and nights out. Most nights they offer dinners, sometimes free. Interior walls are adorned with cool art, decorations and information and great music floats through the large hallways. Security is excellent (you must show your key to be buzzed into the front door) and location is perfect.
About BUG's hostel reviews
This hostel was visited by one of BUG's team of hostel inspectors who write independent reviews and assess a star rating based on an objective assessment criteria.
We show up unannounced at hostels to write honest and unbiased hostel reviews. Many of BUG's reviews now feature videos and photo slideshows. BUG never receives payment for listing any establishment and BUG's researchers never accept free accommodation in exchange for favourable reviews.

I think it was one of the best places :D in terms of everything, i did find that it was a pity there was no drinking water and there was no water in the vending machine. that was a big bummer
