4.0 / 5.0
Different kitchen and bathroom, nice private room (dorms too if it’s for few nights). Good location to be near central but a bit far from the esplanade
If you want to party or stay up late, not the best place to go as you have to be quiet around 10pm. But still good to relax!
2.5 / 5.0
Very basic facilities - no mirror in room or bathroom, no mugs in our kitchen, hard to balance aircon and heat. No chair in room. Otherwise outdoor eating tables etc quite nice and helpful manager
as above

Easy to find it
The cleanliness. We found two cockroaches dead in the floor of our room which means that the cleaners didn't vacuum the floor properly.
If you need to stay for one night is ok, but no anymore.
4.5 / 5.0
This hostel was quiet to rest and I appreciated the female dorm with the shower in the room. The kitchen was good and clean.
2.5 / 5.0
Air conditioning in room. Washer/dryer on site. Pretty garden area and covered spaces for the rain.
Small sinks, no mirrors in rooms, unkempt kitchen area, and small, uncomfortable bed.
