- Chaleur insoutenable, pas de climatisation, obligé de débrancher le ventilateur pour charger son téléphone, à fuir

- It's not a hostel but a large room with four bunk beds. There are no accessible common areas, just two tables. The refrigerator was dirty and full of stuff even though the hostel was empty.

+ It was good basic lodging. No A/C but plenty of fans. washrooms were clean. The owners were great and were more than helpful This is not a luxury location, and is not in the party region of Langkawi. They will also rent you a scooter if you have the proper credentials

+ This is a self check-in dorm with the whole accommodation in one big hall-room. Totally ideal for backpackers though it can look very intimidating on arrival. All the facilities are well thought through for sharing and very suited for backpackers. Definitely not for holiday makers! After the initial shock of it appearing very basic it was an extremely enjoyable and comfortable hostel.

- Not being aware that it was self-check in prior to arrival.

+ Nice hostel in Kuah, notice the area is not so touristy! But not hostel fault. Went there just for 1 night to be closer Ferry, Walk 50 min! Narrow stairs, no shoes. God with code on the door, no keys! Wierd hostel area, I think it was a girl room and boy room! Shower in the same room as toilet! Would say very hot during night and alot of sound from the mainroad. There are a big cooler, but window open you can’t close! Mosquito net if you want, quite bad curtain situation. I think it was a small kitchen area with fridge! Staff nice the short talk we had. Just small lock for your most important stuff, the rest under the bed or something. Fan right over you and lamp.

+ 好久没有住过蚊帐了,还是蓝色的。特别特别多的电风扇,入住的门比较难找,是在两个店中间。老板很用心的改造了很多东西。睡得非常好。

+ Ich habe einige Zeit hier verbracht. Die Unterkunft befindet sich direkt über einer Motorrad Werkstatt. Sie hat wirklich ein ganz besonderes Flair. Es war alles vorhanden, was man als Backpacker braucht. Eine gemütliche Sitzecke, Küchenbereich mit Mikrowelle, Wasserkocher, Kühlschrank. Jedes Bett hatte ein eigenes Moskitonetz. Der Gastgeber ist sehr fleißig und aufmerksam. Es wurde täglich gründlich gereinigt. Motorroller und Fahrräder kann man mieten. Restaurants und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten sind in unmittelbarer Nähe. Das Preis-Leistung-Verhältnis ist sehr gut. Ich kann einen Aufenthalt empfehlen.

- Ich hatte nichts zu beanstanden.

+ The owners son who is running the hostel is a gem. Very nice and informative. The family travels a lot themselves and you can feel it in the way they run the hostel/guesthouse.

+ The dorm have a strict rules about cleanliness and noise. Moh makes sure that these rules and followed by the guests. As a result, everyone is very respectful towards each other. I stayed there for 5nights with other guys that I don't know and nothing bothers me. The shared bathroom is always dry and clean as well as the dining/working table. By 11pm, the lights are off and everyone that are still awake and moves makes minimal noise. The place is well ventilated also that I don't have to use blanket at night. Bonus, every bunk beds are equipped with mosquito net and blinds.

- The lights are too dim at night.
