Nice place to sleep and hang around — the main problem is that it's right next to the Grand Canal, which sounds nice, but also comes with it's fair share of mosquitos which will raid your room and your bodies if you have the windows open at night (which you will in summer). But when that's not happening, the workers are friendly and flexible, there's complimentary coffee and other food on hand, and the beds aren't too bad. Some lockers available, as necessary with hostels, but it all feels homely and safe anyway. Can be hard to find when it's dark out as you have you turn in a slim alley, but follow their provided directions and there won't be a problem.
