La verdad es que la ubicación genial, y los voluntarios que trabajan allí, muy buena honda. Pero, hay música hasta las tantas de la mañana, no hay lockers, es demasiado hippie este hotel, gente manteniendo relaciones en las camas, no repetiría este lugar. Limpieza? Inexistente. Vi como “limpiaban” una mañana los baños, y entré luego que terminaron, y solo habían cambiado las basuras y ya, necesitan LIMPIAR con productos los lavabos y el inodoro, muy asqueroso todo. Tuve que mear de ...

Das Hostel wurde erst neu eröffnet, die Mitarbeiter wirkten etwas überfordert. Es gab keine Spinde für die eigenen Wertsachen oder Aufbewahrungsmöglichkeiten am Bett. Die Bäder waren nicht sauber und der Boden war im Bad immer nass. Meine Freundinnen und ich haben extra den Frauendorm gebucht, aber es standen ständig und unangekündigt männliche Mitarbeiter im Zimmer. Ingesamt wirkte das Hostel ungemütlich mit wenig Privatsphäre.

Good atmosphere, but several thefts at the hostel and the owner refusing to show me the security cameras is a shame.

would not recommend this hostel unless you love the smell of sewage and actual s*** all the time. waking up and going to sleep with that smell just pissed me off. the mattress is also covered in plastic so you can hear everyones slightest movement. very loud music that is on until late and lockers on deposit only. also when we got there, the main light was broken and when it did start to work it was right in the top bunk beds so its blinding. didn't even need a key to get into the room either.

Honestly one of the worst hostel I’ve ever stayed at, pretty dirty, the doors don’t have locks, they didn’t have body wash, staff didn’t really know basic information, bathrooms smelled and weren’t ever clean

The staff here were very nice and welcoming. Outside of that, I thought this place was gross. The room reeked of sewage (they had air fresheners about so they’re obviously aware of the problem, but that did nothing to help). The bathrooms were nasty. The showers were not clean. There were no locks on any doors so someone can walk off the street straight into the rooms with your stuff. The lights in many bunks including mine didn’t work. It was very dark in the room/bathroom.

Insgesamt ganz in Ordnung. Leider hat es sehr stark gerochen und es gab nur kaltes Wasser zum Duschen.

Bequeme Betten in zentraler Lage, man kann vieles umsonst ausleihen. Schwierig finde ich, dass man die Tür zum Schlafsaal nicht abschließen kann, Locker gibt es auch nicht, dh es kann jederzeit jeder hereinspazieren. Das Bad war ok sauber, die Luft war aber immer extrem feucht und es hat abgestanden gerochen. Die Badtür hat extrem laut gequietscht, ich hatte leider das Bett direkt daneben.

Staff was great, very lovely people but that girls bathroom… oh my gosh, I have never smelt anything so rancid in my life. Intense smell of sewage, cold water. Not to mention that it was pretty much outside, saw a gecko trying to come in and a caterpillar. The drains were always clogged because the hair wasn’t being cleaned out. The beds were clean but for the upstairs top bunks, eye masks should be offered. Overall everything was good but the bathroom is not the same as advertised…

Wir haben die Unterkunft für eine Nacht gebucht und dafür war sie völlig in Ordnung. In unserem Schlafsaal gab es nur ein Badezimmer in dem Dusche und Toilette gleichzeitig waren. War leider nicht das sauberste Bad. Betten waren für eine Nacht ok. Das Personal ist überaus freundlich, besonders Sasy war sehr nett und hat bei allem geholfen :)

Awful. 14 bed female dorm is actually 28 bed dorm. Dirty, extremely loud and if the hostel wasn’t loud, the other party hostel next door was. Didn’t feel safe here, no locks on any doors meaning anyone can just walk into the dorms from the street. Wifi doesn’t work. Staff didn’t seem too interested in doing their work andsome of them seemed to be high during their shift. Location is far away from everything. They give discounts for good reviews, don’t let the reviews fool you.

Really amazing for the price. Bed was so comfy and the curtains give full privacy. Temperature was perfect. (It was very light by my bed but fine with eye mask) very clean and perfect location near night markets Showers downstairs were extremely hot and smelt quite bad. WiFi rarely worked consistently in the bed room

it's a good cheap hostel, it's clean enough, beds are comfy and spacious and privacy is okay - there are curtains but sometimes there are gaps. just if you end up in the upstairs dorm you will need a sleep mask because it is SO light all night even from a flood light outside the window

Great location right next to the night market! A nice a hostel, but you have to pay to use the lockers and they’re quite small. Also the washrooms were quite stuffy and not the cleanest ever.

For the price this hostel is great. It is really clean with comfy beds. The location is right by the night market and only a 20 minute walk from the beach and lots of bars. The staff were so lovely and welcoming and there were events on each night. Would recommend!

Our room’s ceiling was over 10 meters high, so if you have the upper bunk bed it becomes very bright early in the morning. It also echoes in the room making every slight movement quite loud. We also only had one bathroom for 12 people! If you stay here and get to be in the two other rooms it will be much better. More bathrooms and not a high ceiling. The rooms were clean but the bathroom was not.

Really nice spacious room. The staff were so lovely especially the nice lady on reception. Beds had curtains and there were lockers for your stuff. Yes the bathrooms could smell at times but it’s a very hot climate and probably can’t be avoided. The rooms are left unlocked overnight but there is always a staff member at reception so it felt safe to me.

Great hostel , away from the hussle and bussle. Free kayak paddle board bikes which is a mayor plus. The upstairs room was comfortable and bright and air conditioned. I extended by two nights. Sasi is a queen and makes the hostel 10x better
