6/10 Okay

We had a private bathroom but it was quite dirty. The room was just ok. It's not as nice as the pictures show.
Kenneth, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Spacious rooms and so clean! Large bathrooms and personal safe's. We were not there long enough to use use the kitchen but it was large and bright.
Allison, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Staff are really rude . Very bad experience
Drishyanadh, 3-night trip

4/10 Poor

There were no lockers in or around the rooms, no staff, two toilets and one shower for the whole floor. The bathrooms had toilet paper all over the floor. The kitchen sink would only do super hot water, that smelled like the lagoon. The vending machine did not have normal water. No staff visible.
Katherine, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Be aware that there is no reception. You need to receive a sms for your room number and code that i didn't received, so you have to writd them an email. You are by yourself. No option for late checkout, they don't allow. You can leave your luggage in lockers for $20 or more depending of the size.
Sebastien, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

The property was very close to the downtown areas and the church nearby, bubt that was it. The hostel is basic barebones, just some bunk beds and shared bathrooms. Bathrooms were not clean and kitchen was ok. So if you need a place to stay and only need to crash for a few hours, this place is perfect.
lakshmanan, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I’ve stayed at both hostels in this property. I booked a private room this stay. The beds were very comfortable. Staff was friendly. There was a light out in one of the bathrooms but there was no wait time for showers. The kitchen is located at the back of the hostel so that was a little difficult to find. I like the location as everything is walkable. I will stay here again 😊
Cassandra, 2-night trip

4/10 Poor

I don't recommend this hostel because the room had not prepared at 3pm. After checking in, bed making staff came into my room and start bed making with laughing loudly. They did not explain the reason because they don't speak english. In several minutes later, another cleaning staff came in and start cleaning. That experience was very unpleasant.
Aya, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great location and friendly staff!
Chao, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

I like the diming option where you can cook your food, condiments provided, pots, pans, dishes are available for you to use. There are left food from prwvious guests that you can take if you want. The wifi connection though isnt the best in our room. The router isn't reachable enough on the farthest area. We usually stays in the kitchen or the reception area so we can get a wifi. The resr is ok. Rooms fine, few shower rooms and bathroom outside oir room. There's sink inside the room at least for you to use to brush uour teeth.
Glenda, 4-night trip
