What a great place! I've spent a fair amount of time in hostels: this is one of the best, particularly because of the staff. They've created a welcoming, casual atmosphere akin to being in a friend or family member's home. I will absolutely stay at Red Palm again. Comfy bed in the More

Not a bad place for the money. The location is great, it's a short walk to the train and there is plenty to eat/see in the immediate area. The hostel itself is pretty basic, the rooms are clean and simple, but a little loud. My biggest complaint would be about the bathrooms. There is only More

Tv didn't work. Wifi was very slow. Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was a bit lame. A slice of white bread with peanut butter, that's it. More

Awesome location in China Town - loads of markets on the streets around the place. Staff very friendly, good suggestions for sight seeing etc. Nice common room to hang out in, very very good air in each room, breakfast is just toast, peanut butter and jam - could have been more options. More

I enjoyed my stay(s) at the Rainforest. The location is excellent and the staff treated all travellers with patience and respect; nothing seemed too much trouble. Rooms are small but comfortable and reasonably well appointed- and you can find peace and quiet if you need to rest up after a More

The air-cond is a bit old and it wasn't cold at all. The air in room was too dry, maybe due to air-cond and hot weather. Other than that, everything else is perfect, including the breakfast. More
