    Despite seeing all of the off-the-wall reviews for this place, it's actually a good value for the money. It's a backpacker hostel, so no one should be expecting the Hilton or anything, but there are comfortable beds, halfway-decent showers (the consistent supply of hot water is something to be desired), and kitchen facilities that are MORE than adequate for budget-friendly accommodation. The staff are helpful, yet not overbearing;; if you ask, they will give you what you want. Overall quite good
