Perfect location to catch the...

Liked: Perfect location, nice staff.
Disliked: The noise during the night, doors beating. The bed I slept was also noisy with every movement. But as I had to wake up 4am to take my flight it was alright. I wouldn’t sleep well anyway.

Great value and very clean.

Liked: Cleaners came twice a day, making sure everything is clean. Air-conditioning is great, no cold memory in the hostel. Kitchen is tidy and mostly clean, with free milk and soy milk provided. Got activities as well.
Disliked: The bed sheets are making my skin itchy.
