I had the most amazing time at Ashanti Lodge. Everyone was super nice, professional , helpful and very accommodating. The staff went way beyond their duties and nothing was too much to ask. Thank you again to everyone especially, Kyle, Francois and Cal . I definitely will be back and will recommend Ashanti to my friends who travel. Until we meet again, CheChe

Loud, bad wifi, but nice location. Whilst a peacfeul appearing hostel in an old farmhouse, it was Incredibly loud both at night and in the morning, you can hear every movement of the people in the room above you and next to you. The wifi was also truly terrible. Some of the staff were helpful and we enjoyed the curtains around the bed and the extra blankets. There are cheaper hostels with better better vibes and more quiet.
