Property owner was awesome and very approachable. Also has a bar onsite very nice ☺️

All staff were absolutely lovely but accommodation is run down majorly. Arrived with a big group and given any company would find that stressful, there was no organisation whatsoever. Half of us were left without a key, facilities weren’t great and one of the rooms were without a lock. It’s fine for one night but don’t stay by yourself.

I wasn’t comfortable with the shower privacy and felt that some blacked out glass would be better. Also, a shelf for my dry clothes in the shower would be helpful. Floor wasn’t clean either. Affordable, but next to I’ll spend a little more to stay elsewhere.

I paid $297 for the double room which was nothing like the photo's, it was a half finished room with no blankets and the mattress was filthy. I was locked out of my room and the staff were unable to find a key for a considerable amount of time. Terrible experience.

Good social hostel just lacking a few basic things: No microwave in the kitchen; no lockers in the room; no milk provided with the cereal and toast breakfast.

Very cozy hostel. They organize an activity and food for little money for 5 to 10 dollars. They also have a kitchen with two stoves. Clear and tidy kitchen. Shower and kitchen are very clean. The bedroom is practical and clean. The employees are very helpful. If they can, they will drive you to the train station and to places of interest to make a nice outing as a group.

Super cool place with great vibes and lovely people. Really impressed with the bar called 'Charlies' within the hostel, there was also a little simple gym next to the pool which was a blessing. I was shattered when I turned up and there the perfect offer for $5 to have a great dinner cooked for me....I took it, it was fab. Thank you for a great stay!

Very dirty need to clean once a day. Clean towels in kitchen every day. Couches and chairs look disgusting need to be replaced. Faucets do not work. Need outside light on night entry. Kitchen dirty. On the other hand the owner and staff were friendly and helpful. It was a good location for me close to rental car return and airport
