Reviewed Jun 30, 2026Stayed here for while exploring. The location was ideal, and close to good food options nearby. Check-in was smooth and the staff were genuinely helpful, giving good local tips and being quick to sort out any small issues. The room itself was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the shower had good water pressure, something that's not a given in hostels! Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a comfortable, well-located, sociable stay. Already thinking about booking again next time.

Reviewed May 9, 2026Nada. Muito ruim !!
Um dos piores hostel que me hospedei em 3 meses de viagem pelo Sudeste Asiático. Tem 2 lances de uma escada giratória super apertada até chegar ao quarto no segundo andar. O quarto compartilhado tinham 6 camas e o chão tomado de malas e roupas sujas dos hóspedes. Um nojo!!! Se você gerencia um estabelecimento, não basta definir regras, do tipo: colocar sua mala no armário, ou deixar seu sapato no térreo e caminhar descalço nas dependências. A gestão simplesmente não fala nada, portanto um monte de jovens sem noção de higiene e respeito, tornam o local um depósito de lixo. Tem que monitorar e reforçar as regras para que sejam cumpridas, caso contrário vira o caos que eu me deparei. Os funcionários parecem peças de museu, sem nenhum tipo de vontade em servir ou perguntar como estavam as coisas. As tomadas na cama também não funcionavam adequadamente. Armário pequeno e apertado para uma mochila grande. O quarto tem uma varanda, e a todo momento tinha fumante abrindo e fechando a porta para fumar, portanto espere por barulho e cheiro de fumaça dentro do quarto… No banheiro não é fornecido nem sabonete, nem shampoo. Minha sorte foi que passei somente uma noite e me mudei para outro hostel na mesma rua. Não recomendo a estadia. Local péssimo.

Cold showers which were filled with loads of empty bottles of shower etc which should be removed. Spiral stairs are steep to get into the room but not too bad. Not much place to hang wet clothes. No social area. First few nights the air conditioning didn’t work and it was very hot and staff didn’t do much to help.

Reviewed Feb 11, 2026המיקום מושלם וקרוב להכל. הקומה העליונה היא הכי מומלצת לשהייה עם נוף יפה. המקום עצמו מאוד יפה. הצוות מאוד נחמד.
אין מים חמים באף אחת מהמקלחות. יש הפסקות מים כל כמה דקות שתוספות אותך באמצע המקלחת אבל הן לא נמשכות הרבה זמן. מדרגות ממש לא נוחות. ביחס למחיר הגבוה מאוד של המקום אתה צריך גם לשלם על מגבת. הדבר שהכי הפריע לי הוא שכשעברתי לקומה השנייה כנראה היו פשפשי מיטה איפה שישנתי, כל הלילה נעקצתי והיה לי מאוד קשה לישון, יום למחרת עברתי למיטה אחרת והיה יותר טוב אבל גם שם נעקצתי קצת. והיה שם עובד אחד שעשה לי בעיות עם ההחלפה של המגבת שהייתה מלוכלכת והוא לא רצה לתת לי אחת נקייה, אותו העובד גם איבד את הפתק של הפיקדון שהשארתי למגבת כי הוא החזיר את הפיקדון שלי לאורח אחר. הוא גרם לחוויה שם להיות פחות נעימה, חוץ ממנו שאר הצוות מאוד נחמדים.

There aren't no elevators and the spiral stair is so narrow and small.... 🤢🤢 to climb up. It will kill you to take your luggages all the way from the ground floor to the 2nd floor. The shower doesn't have hot water and the shower sometimes stops the water while showering.

Reviewed Jan 11, 2026Very clean Room had a nice modern feel to it Balcony was cool, overlooking the street and great for hanging wet clothes Ladder very easy to climb Staff friendly In the rooms there is a very social vibe, mainly girls seem to stay here so it felt like a 12 bed female dorm, seems to be a lot of solo travellers too which I didn’t expect. Everyone says hi as you walk in which is nice
No actual common area other than the restaurant Expensive for the price given other hostels offer more for the same price Need to include tax in the price Staircase is a thin spiral staircase, awkward to climate with luggage. The sea view room js on the 2nd floor and non seaview is on the first floor if you want to make life easier you can go to the first floor room No hot water or soap in the showers Floor is frequently sandy even though we remove shoes before entering the upstairs area

Creo que es el hostel donde van a parar todos los maleducados el que se pone con el movil y el volumen a tope, el que llega como una apisonadora, los que roncan, los que se ponen a charlar en la habitacion, mira que he esatado es hostel pero lo de este no tiene igual.
