The hostel itself is beautiful, well cared for, gorgeous gardens and nice rooms. However, the owner is very unprofessional by swearing in front of guests, and treats his staff like slaves. The staff as a result are demoralized due to putting up with poor treatment. It takes asking 11 and 12 times to get basic items done. The staff should stay and the owners should be replaced. I would not return to this hostel due to the negative environment that the owner creates.

The kitchen needs attention and fumigating (roaches), A few tap washers would save them a lot of money. The facility suits me but would not return unless kitchen was attended to.
