    The location of the hostel was very convenient, with easy access to food options and amenities nearby. the rooms were clean and comfortable, and the air conditioning was effective in keeping the room cool. the hostel provided shampoo and body wash in the bathrooms, which was a nice touch.

    The difficulty in visiting attractions from the hostel without having to hire a private car. the availability and information on buses to the park and hot springs were limited, and the locals were not particularly helpful in providing guidance.

    The value for money at this hostel was excellent, with a spacious and clean room at a reasonable price. The location was also great, just a short walk to the supermarket, market, and various restaurants. The staff were friendly and helpful, and even went the extra mile to show me how to use the shower.

    The breakfast offerings could use some improvement, perhaps by adding more variety or options to choose from.

    I had an excellent stay at a budget hostel located in a vibrant area. the staff were friendly and helpful, recommending local eateries and providing complimentary coffee, tea, and biscuits. the bed in my room was comfortable and the shower in the bathroom worked well. the property was clean and had a pleasant atmosphere.

    The noise from the surrounding area, especially in the early hours, was disruptive at times.

    I had an amazing stay at this hostel! The staff was extremely kind and professional, and they even showed me how to use the shower when I thought it wasn't working. The hostel is conveniently located near restaurants, stores, a clinic, and a market that sells fresh fruits and vegetables. I was pleasantly surprised that the restaurant opens as early as 6 am, making it convenient for early risers like me. The evening market, which is located just 200m away behind the DIY building, is also worth a visit as it opens from 4 pm to 7 pm. Additionally, there was no smokey smell or any uncomfortable odor in the hostel, making it a pleasant environment to stay in. the cleanliness, hotel facilities, transportation options, and the helpfulness of the staff made my experience here truly enjoyable.

    Nothing, it was perfect!

    Neat and simple room with a central location. Friendly staff and good wifi. Enjoyed the balcony area for morning coffee. Tea and coffee facilities always available.

    Staff made us feel really welcomed, nothing was too much trouble.
