Reviewed Jul 17, 2026Ostello carino e pulito, a pochi minuti di cammino dalla stazione degli autobus e dal porto. Il personale è davvero gentilissimo, molto accogliente e super disponibile per la prenotazione dei tour in barca e per qualsiasi informazione o consiglio. Ottimo il fatto che sia possibile usufruire della lavatrice gratuitamente. La colazione inclusa era semplice, ma comunque apprezzata, così come il fatto che siano sempre disponibili caffè e tè.
La stanza è un po' piccola e non c'è molto spazio per sistemare le proprie cose, in compenso però c'è un armadietto e viene fornito il lucchetto. Il letto era confortevole, ma il cuscino un po' meno: l'ho trovato un po' troppo duro per i miei gusti.

Reviewed Aug 11, 2025Le dortoir femmes de 4 avec rideaux, lumières individuelles et climatisation. La terrasse au soleil le matin, le petit déjeuner de 7h30 à 9h30 et la laundry gratuite. Petits lockers suffisants. Très propre. Très bon rapport qualité-prix Très central et proche du night market et à 8 mn à pied du terminal de bus. Personnel gentil et accueillant même si toutes ne parlent pas bien anglais.
Le mur de la chambre 101 donne sur l'espace commun. Peut être un peu bruyant ( et tôt le matin) surtout si certaines personnes parlent fort ou écoutent fort leur téléphone. Un peu plus de sens de vie commune serait un atout. La terrasse pour étendre le linge est aussi l'espace fumeur, ce qui n'est pas très logique si on veut éviter que des fringues propres sentent le tabac. A partir de 20h, proche de la guesthouse, une bande de chiens errants défendent leur territoire et mieux éviter de croiser leur chemin pour rentrer. Passer par l'autre côté de la rue ( opposé à grande route principale) pour les éviter.

Reviewed Dec 31, 2024Die Unterkunft ist soweit ganz gut gelegen, dass man den Hafenbereich fussläufig erreichen kann. Da hauptsächlich Taucher diesen Ort nutzen, um zu Inseln drumherum zukommen, ist die Unterkunft gut ausgelegt. Ich habe nur einen Tag dort verbracht. Aber es war insgesamt ein ruhiges und sauberes Hostel. Die Mitarbeiter sind freundlich, aber durch sicherlich Sprachbarrieren, eher zurückhaltend. Mich hat’s aber nicht weiter gestört, da ich wie gesagt nur eine Nacht zum schlafen dort war.
Es hat im Zimmer etwas muffig gerochen und da kein Fenster vorhanden war, war es auch nur schwer den Geruch rauszubekommen.

Like most hostels in Semporna it's very basic. Solo Female travelling alone, stayed in the 8 mixed bed dorm as there was no availability in female dorm. I was the only female in my room. The were no curtains for privacy, would recommend they invest. Very small storage lockers for a small backpack and some were broken that couldn't be used. Beds were uncomfortable. The staff done a good job at keeping the place clean but the guests didn't, I watched one man lift his leg into the kitchen sink to wash his shoes (yes, shoes were on). If needed, do it in the shower and not where people wash their dishes. Also be aware if booking the airport transfer at the hostel. It turned up 15 minutes late and the driver causally had a cigarette and made everyone wait for another 10 minutes. Then needed to pick up 6 other people. Plan this around how long it takes you to get to the airport.

La struttura sarebbe ottimale, nonostante il dormitorio sia un po' piccolo e non ci siano tendine per la privacy. Purtroppo ospita persone assolutamente incapaci di condividere spazi comuni ( intendo sia la sala/cucina che il dormitorio stesso ); di fatto quindi è impossibile riposare tanto la sera quanto la mattina. La responsabilità è senza dubbio degli ospiti ma lo staff dovrebbe intervenire. Peccato, ostello potenzialmente piacevole ma sono stato 5 notti e, non potendo dormire mai, non mi sento di consigliarlo.
