Not a great hostel, I must admit. They claim to pick you up at the train station but not to me, because my train 'was not an international one' (but they don't specify it on their facilities). The couple is run by a Korean couple the wife (Bobby) is friendly and helpful but, sadly, she doesn't always stay there, leaving the helm to her very rude, unfriendly and uncooperative husband, and he doesn't hide it much. It's central, but I can't, in consciousness, recommend it as a first choice in UB

Dear Paolo, I am really sorry that you wrote it with misunderstanding. If you didn't know it or suspected it, you had to let us know first. This is not bed bugs. This is mosquitoes. After a few days raining the city has some mosquitoes. All room heathers are still working. Everybody wants to open window when they go to bed. This open window let the mosquitoes to let in the rooms!

The only thing that bothered me a little bit was that we were out of toilet paper so often! Other than that, good value for the money. They were GREAT in helping me with my tour and orienting myself. Thank you.

Staff were great and very helpful in organising tours outside of UB (very cheap as well). Despite our stay being well put of peak season the atmosphere in the hostel was fantastic as well.
