Banana Leaf Eco Hostel

It was a fine hostel , they room was very hot and the bathrooms could use some more love. There was a kitchen but not available for guests and there are not many shops or places to eat in the city.

Beautiful location. Staff were really lovely. Most of the people staying there were volunteers which was “interesting” as a guest. Property could do with a good clean and the toilets didn’t flush. Some of the volunteers and the owner were really great and made my stay extra special though. Great property with lots of potential!!

Pros: Excellent hostel, very well organized, spacious, and with a beautiful view. To get there, I suggest taking an Uber if you have heavy luggage, as the uphill walk is a bit long, though doable. If you arrive at a dead-end street, keep walking and you’ll find a trail. Follow this trail until you reach the hostel. Cons: The music was very loud and bothered me a bit; I was expecting a quieter environment. Some bathrooms don’t have doors, which can be an issue during busy periods
