This place is beautiful. It doesn’t even feel like a hostel. The kitchen to use is better than what I had at home, walking distance to shops, market, groceries store, atm and bus. The view is great as well.

Rooms were great - clean, comfy and spacious. The hostel is a little bare in terms of extras and there isnt too much in close proximity but its walking distance to the markets.
