I wish I had booked this property sooner! We reserved a private room last minute and were so glad we did. The happy hour was a blast and a great way to meet other hostel guests. The food wasn’t amazing, definitely skip the cheap freezer meals, but the social atmosphere more than made up for it. We met some awesome backpackers and ended up going out together that night, which was super fun. The rooms were wonderful with comfortable beds, and the location couldn’t be better, just a 10-minute walk to Golden G

It's okay. IThe rooms with the cabins, even when the lights are on it's very dim in there. Not enough space for everyone's suitcases so theyre just get in the way. The one I was in had another section which was private for 3 people but the only thing separating them was a curtain. Even with earplugs in you can hear them chatting cos theyre all friends in there which is quite disruptive. The cabin is really nice. Luggage storage 0 security, you fill out a form but people can help themselves
