+ 1. Quite near city center;

- 1. The guests are very rude, they keeps talking very loud and turn on all lights at night time when I am sleeping on lower bed, obviously they know I am sleep, because no curtains there; also the roommate snores like hell at night, another roommate asked him to sleep in the living room because he badly affects all of us, and the snoring guy did not move at all; and the guest did not close the bathroom door even the notice requesting this to avoid mosquito; 2. No tissue paper anywhere except toilet; 3. No heater for shower; 4. Staff not very helpful, I have two luggage and I have to request so he carry only one of them; 5. Many mosquito;

+ Nice location and nice staff

- I only blame the booking.com. why you upload this type of accommodation in your system. I also notice other places. I will not blame the hotel or accommodation providers. When we look view the property it is look nice as they upload nice pictures for marketing purposes. The booking. Com.has to visit in person and asses the properties. I dont blame or comment of the accommodation providers. We view the property in your web, and blame yourself and your web. I am not happy with only booking.com

No feelings living in a hostel ,every one is staying in their own room as no events are playing activities, two dorm beds are in a tiny room without dorm curtains, big size cockroach saw in a bathroom, lizard and ants also there, no hot water shower facility, internet also not working properly, bus stop is a little walkway distance near the Gale face sea view, dorm rent price is also high, locker is small size and needs your own lock, kitchen small size, eating or drinking items not on demands
