The property location is good enough to book for this hostel. However, staff has no English knowledge at all (but they were helpful anyway), rooms are too packed, beds are inflatable which are too noisy, there is no common area/place to sit etc. The room I stayed was too small but there were 4 bunk-beds which are for 8 people. So, this was making the room full of male-odor. The toilets and the bathrooms are daily cleaned and were clean enough. Yet, the showers are so small and are few in number.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
In the middle of the night a guy pissed on an other guy and on all of his belongings.The receptionist and the cleaning staff didn't even care about making sure how everyone feels l.The only thing they did right was to tell the guy who pissed to go out.The guy who got pissed on,was cleaning the floor himself. DISGUSTING MORE THAN YOU CAN IMAGINE.THEY DIDN'T EVEN CHANGED THE BEDS WHICH GO PISSED ON.Now the next person will come and sleep on the same beds. NOT RECOMMENDED.NEVER GO THERE.
