Staffs are nice and helpful. The room is clean (only the shower curtain is a little dirty). Maybe a mirror and an extra chair in the room would be even better.

You get what you pay for

Extremely cheap (about 15 usd a night) and therefore what you can expect shouldn’t be much. Although the very pleasant location of the hostel should allow for quietness and calm, it’s a rather noisy “house” with people coming and going, kids running around and screaming (not guests) so don’t expect to sleep much in the mornings. Breakfast is below average but again, it’s extremely cheap. Other than that, ok bed, cable tv, and ok warmish shower.
