Leider kam es zu keiner Übernachtung. 2 Tage vor meiner Ankunft wurde mir wegen Überbuchung der Aufenthalt storniert, was für mich unerklärlich ist, da ich sehr frühzeitig gebucht habe und ich es daher nicht besonders fair fand. Ich habe mit Glück noch eine andere schöne Unterkunft bekommen, war allerdings durch die kurzfristige Stornierung sehr gestresst. Auf meine Anfrage hin, ob ich die Anzahlung zurückerstattet bekommen kann, die ich bereits an Hostelworld gezahlt hatte, folgte eine ...

The awesome reviews were tempting, so I made the booking on hostelworld and made a partial payment. On my way to langwaki, I received an email that said that my booking was cancelled by "accident," but they still had a bed for me. I sent them my number and got a call from Nadia, and she was nice on the call. I told her I'd arrive at 3 and call her when I arrive. When I did, she never answered or called back! I booked in another place and didn't call because I didn't need to have any arguments. A...

Had all my valuables stolen while staying here, had to leave for early flight so couldn’t hang around to file police report etc. messaged the hostel and they said they’d done one for me. Asked for a copy of report and have just been ghosted by the host. Have messaged several times now and still no response. Other people in the dorm had stuff stolen as well. During my stay, staff were never around- saw 1 member when checking in- other than that there was never anyone available at the hostel.

Water stopped working on my 1st day and therefore there was no drinking water, running shower, sink or flushable toilets. also believe the bedding had given my head lice during my 2 day stay so not impressed!! also not super social. if you are on a top bunk and someone is walking around the 1 dorm the hostel has you entire bunk shakes making it very frustrating trying to sleep!

No free breakfast, no host and a wobbly floor We were really excited about our stay here based on all the reviews about a family feel, lots of cats and nadia the host. However, when we arrived there was no one to greet us. We only saw nadia for about 10mins on our second day and then again on our last day. She seems like a nice person but just very disorganised. On hostelword it said a free breakfast was included however for our first 2 mornings nadia was not there and there was no breakfast. S...

I don't know what's going on with the manager of this place. I left some things in the locker and took the key back to Kuala Lumpur. When she suggested I send the key by mail, I did so as soon as I received confirmation from her. She promised to send the items back to me within two days (I promised to cover all costs), but then she went silent and didn't respond. I contacted Agoda for assistance, and they said they had tried to contact her multiple times without success.

The idea of this hostel is nice but the absolute lack of any security here made me feel a bit uneasy. There is never any staff here (just the volunteer Asha who was great!!) and the door to the room is never locked so literally anyone could walk in day or night. There was also only one working toilet when I was there for everyone in the hostel and only two showers which isn’t enough.

I had a wonderful stay in Bungahostel on Langkawi. The atmosphere was super friendly and relaxed, and it was really easy to meet other travelers. The staff were incredibly kind and helpful, always giving good tips about what to do on the island. The hostel was clean, safe, and perfect for solo female travelers. I especially liked that it felt very comfortable and social without being too loud or party-focused. The beds were comfortable, and the common areas were nice for relaxing and chatting w...

J’ai passé un super séjour dans cette auberge. La chambre était très propre, climatisée et avec une vue sur le jardin. L’auberge est toute neuve , très jolie on s’y sent comme chez soi. De plus elle est tout près de la plage - de 10 min à pied. Nadia la gérante est super gentille , de bon conseil et s’est montré disponible. Je recommande !
