Security is generally good in these areas, especially within the hostels themselves, which often have 24/7 reception. Meeting other travelers is easy in the common outdoor areas like terraces or by the pool. Public transport is accessible, with bus stops just a minute or two walk away, making it simple to navigate the city.
