I stayed there for a few days. It was a very good and peaceful stay. I stayed in a female dormitory, which was comfortable and always clean. The owner is very kind and friendly.It is also well-located, close to tourist attractions and public transport. The prices are affordable. Highly recommended!

Although this hostel is a bit old, it’s absolutely worth it to stay. The owner at the front desk is absolutely wonderful, he helped me in SO many ways when I arrived too early to check in, giving me recs but not too many, and figuring out airport transport. He even moved my luggage for me. The location is also perfect. Easily accessible to all things. It’s just a bit old of a building so that comes with its own character! Has some unique smells occasionally but nothing terribly horrible!!
