there was a MASSIVE cockroach in my room. I don't balme the hostel though as it comes with the city. Still, quite disgusting!

Owner Comment (Show)
We apologise that this occurred while you were staying with us. The Mango Tree has a permanent contract in place that guarantees no cockroaches for 3 months after the site has been fumigated. In truth it difficult to totally eliminate them for 3 months at a time, so the contract stipulates that if one is found less than 90 days after fumigation they will return and do it again. Notifying a member of staff is the best course of action, as we cannot fight something if we don't know about it. We hope this hasn't put you off returning.

Great Location, nice people and excellent breakfast in the best City ever!!! Only one little thing that bothered me: there was a mix up with my room number on the frontdesk, someone from the nightshift woke me up in the middle of the night, telling me to switch rooms....which I of course declined (4 a.m.)!!!! So I changed the room the next day and everything was fine, but the waking up part was really weird! Stil liked the Hostel very much!
