Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    In love with the room, for the price the room is comfy and A/C is nice in especially in hot weather. Got cafe at the GF with really cheap croissant (and not bad as well) and cakes that is 40% off after 6pm! Love that they have drinks at lobby too. Great location in the middle of city centre. Its near to a lot of local / town attractions but bit far from PCB / beach. would suggest for u to stay near beach area if u want to travel near beaches.

    You get, what you pay. I’m a backpacker and not looking for luxury. I’m looking for cheap guesthouses. and My Friend is cheap and has everything I need. A bed, and a good shower. But what i loved most are the owners. A lovely couple. They even took me to a place nearby to taste durian, a fruit. A great experience and had a great conversation.
