The staff at this hostel were really friendly and helpful, providing us with great tips and advice during our stay. The facilities were modern and clean, creating a comfortable atmosphere. The location was convenient, with a shopping mall nearby and easy access to the night market, boat terminal, and airport. We also enjoyed the cozy and comfortable bed in our single room.

The limited amenities in our room. There was no table or chair, making it difficult to relax and unwind.

We had a fantastic stay at this hostel. From the moment we arrived, the staff welcomed us with warm smiles and were incredibly helpful throughout our stay. The cleanliness of the hostel was impressive, and the bed was incredibly comfortable. The shared bathrooms were modern, clean, and well-maintained, with shampoo and soap provided. We also loved the addition of a seating area with free coffee, mugs, plates, and cutlery, as well as games and a TV with a cozy sofa. The location of the hostel was also perfect, right in the heart of the city.

Everything was fantastic! 😊
