Took me 20 minutes to find with my taxi driver at 130am. The entrance is in the parking unit to the left and up the stairs until you see the monkey sign on the left! otherwise easy location that is close to fort if you need to move around. Be warned the phone number didn’t work for me and when I emailed I got no help when i needed it.

I’m never one to leave bad reviews unless I really mean it but this place was the worst hostel I’ve EVER stayed at. It’s located in an abandoned building, incredibly sketchy and scary to get to as a solo female traveler. The whole place has such a strange and unnerving energy to it. None of the doors lock at night and the common area and rooms are clearly very unhygienic and dirty. I understand the standards are different for each country, but this was just beyond. Sadly would never recommend.

Lights broken, area is really creepy. I was only there for a few hours, had a rest on the bed and bed bugs bit me where my skin was exposed. There were also staff sleeping in the rooms when I arrived. AC only goes on at night. I don't not understand the rating of this hostel. It's the worst I've ever stayed at.
