lovely place to stay right in the heart of the city. would not recomend to anyone with a heart condition or astma, as the hostel is up 4 flights of stairs and there is no lift.

Pros: Excellent location, friendly staff, bathrooms were always very clean, wi-fi in the rooms. Cons: It is located on the 4th floor of a building not equipped with elevator, really small lounge, a bit high price for the single room

very small place, and breakfast was minimalistic; I had problems with my booking (no private ensuite available) and had to settle for a shared bathroom). Later I saw two more people with booking problems as well. Other than that it was a nice stay, the place is very clean and the staff was brilliant.

A well run hostel in a good location. Double room was nice although be sure to bring mosquito repellant. Staff were very helpful and let me put the hostel\'s address as the sender\'s address on a parcel to Australia. The one issue I had was that smoking was allowed (both staff smoked there) and the common room is small enough that it\'s hard to escape it. Also there is no one there at night so guests can make noise when they come home late (as happened to us). Otherwise happy with our choic...More

Very convenient location close to the major sights. Nice friendly family atmosphere in the hostel and a handy supermarket across the road for food and other supplies. Kept awake by mosquito\'s at night so remember your bug repellent :-)

On arrival we were told that they had no register of our reservation. They managed to put us in a room but one of us was told to sleep on the sofa, they then moved us a further two times claiming it was our fault that we were in the wrong rooms even though they put us there! There was no atmosphere whatsoever, and the lounge / kitchen area was very small.   Read Owner Comments

Very nice hostel but extremely rude staff who don't speak English. Of the two of us who stayed there, one was on the floor and the others bed had someone else sleeping in it so was moved to a separate room at 1a.m. Very nice common area.
