The hostel was in a very convenient location and is next to popular eateries. It is also very well priced. There was very little communication with the managers who we didn’t see for our the entire stay, which was really bizarre and unsettling. The cleanliness was typical for a hostel. There were only 3-4 showers which would get annoying in a peak period. There was no hot water on our first night as well, which was odd. The pool and other facilities were well kept. If you’re after a decent night stay, I’d recommend here over Monkeys. Id stay here again.

It's small but clean. It’s surrounded by all you need; the lagoon, restaurants, market, food court, tourist information centre etc. just in front of you or few minutes walk. It’s all about the location. The manager is a lovely lady who would happily help you. There’s still room for improvement.. Will definitely be back.
