Great hostel and staff were so lovely and helpful. Not the most social atmosphere but then again I didn’t do the cooking class or tours where I’m assuming people get to know each other better. Facilities are good and rooms and bathrooms are super clean. I’d say staying here is good if you’re wanting more quiet/chill vibes. Definitely recommend and it’s in a good location as it’s not too hectic and busy but you can get to walking street and centre with a grab easy peasy :) lovely hostel

Great hostel. The location was in a quiet area but a short walk or grab away from the city center. The place was clean and the staff were extremely helpful- especially when I thought i lost my passport. Would return :)
