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.

    I loved stay here, the frame is a very Minimalistic, backpackers vibe! Very cool place! It’s easy to find, great location and is in walking distance of everything you need to see in Pantai Chenang/Chenang Walk. The dorms are spacious, very clean and secure - the doors are opened, hahaha! Booked here for training and ended up staying four nights.

    The hostel was a great location, close to the beach! It was good value for money and the private room was exactly what we needed for our time there (3nights). June was helpful - we booked the mangrove tour with him and would 100% recommend (it was interesting and good value) and the bar at the back of the hostel was also good and cheap drinks!

    Great location (close to restaurants, beaches, scooter rentals, taxi stand). The bed and pod were comfy and clean. The dorm room itself was big and spacious (with a couch). Probably one of the cleanest hostels I've stayed at! Would definitely book again.
