I
recently
had
the
unfortunate
experience
of
staying
at
Milhouse,
and
as
a
seasoned
traveler
with
over
60
countries
under
my
belt,
I
must
say
it
was
one
of
the
most
disappointing
hostel
stays
I've
ever
had.
First
and
foremost,
the
staff
at
this
place
seemed
utterly
disinterested
in
their
jobs.
Their
lackadaisical
attitude
was
evident
from
the
moment
I
walked
through
the
door.
It's
as
if
they
were
doing
me
a
favor
by
allowing
me
to
stay
there.
A
warm
welcome
was
nowhere
to
be
found.
The
check-in
process
was
excruciatingly
slow,
and
it
felt
like
I
was
being
punished
for
wanting
to
stay
at
their
establishment.
After
a
long
journey,
the
last
thing
you
want
is
a
drawn-out
check-in
process
that
saps
your
patience
and
energy.
Now,
let's
talk
about
the
supposed
amenities.
The
Wi-Fi
was
an
absolute
disaster.
It
was
either
nonexistent
or
so
slow
that
it
might
as
well
have
been.
For
a
hostel
that
boasts
of
catering
to
travelers,
having
a
functional
Wi-Fi
connection
should
be
non-negotiable.
And
then
there
was
the
elevator
–
if
you
can
even
call
it
that.
I've
seen
my
fair
share
of
slow
elevators
in
my
travels,
but
the
one
at
Milhouse
took
the
cake.
It
seemed
to
move
at
a
pace
reminiscent
of
a
sloth
in
a
leisurely
stroll,
and
it
served
the
entire
building,
which
meant
waiting
forever
to
get
to
your
room
or
back
down
to
the
lobby.
To
add
insult
to
injury,
I
had
heard
whispers
during
my
travels
that
Milhouse
used
to
be
a
lively,
party
hostel.
However,
during
my
stay,
it
was
far
from
lively.
It
felt
more
like
a
deserted
library
than
a
place
for
travelers
to
socialize
and
have
a
good
time.
But
perhaps
the
most
infuriating
aspect
of
my
stay
was
their
insistence
on
gouging
money
from
customers
by
making
you
pay
in
the
US
dollar
equivalent.
This
is
not
only
inconvenient
but
also
feels
like
a
blatant
cash
grab.
Why
not
just
charge
in
the
local
currency
like
every
other
respectable
establishment?
In
conclusion,
my
stay
at
Milhouse
was
a
profound
disappointment.
The
indifferent
staff,
painfully
slow
check-in,
non-existent
Wi-Fi,
and
glacial
elevator
made
for
a
truly
miserable
experience.
If
you're
a
seasoned
traveler
looking
for
a
vibrant
and
accommodating
hostel,
I
strongly
recommend
you
steer
clear
of
this
place.
It's
a
far
cry
from
the
lively
and
welcoming
atmosphere
I
had
heard
about,
and
it
left
me
with
nothing
but
regret
for
choosing
to
stay
there.
