Extremely quiet and clean, comfy beds, good air con in bed rooms and comfy beds. No personal lockers in each room but most people staying here are also working so was never a problem, everyone was nice and trusting

The only thing to keep in mind with hostel is that there are a lot of long-termers staying here, so it’s not sociable for solo travelers if there are no social people in your room. Besides that, the dorms were very clean and spacious and the kitchen / communal room had everything you needed. Staff was happy to help as well

I had a really great time in Mad Monkey Waterfront. The combination of the really convenient location, the affordable price, the super nice atmosphere and the good service can just not be beat. The hostel has a really nice "living together" vibe going on, where everyone is super open and sociable, yet it's not too busy either. I didn't expect to like this hostel as much as I do.
