The pool area and rooftop terrace are very nice, the hostel is kept pretty clean. The bathrooms are more than basic. There is no communal kitchen. The container 16 bed dorm has good sturdy beds, curtains, top bunks no railing, but just not enough space to move with 2 or more people being around, not talking about sorting luggage. The 4 bed dorms do not have AC.

Hottest room I’ve stayed in during 5 months travelling. Do not stay here, slept outside rather than in the room

My stay was eh. Top bunk doesn’t have a pole to help you up so I was fighting for myself every time I got in my bed. Kitchen isn’t for guests it seems. Bathrooms are fine for outside. As a black traveler though… I didn’t feel welcomed and ppl barely spoke to me even after I spoke to them. So I was happy it was just a night then on to the next!
