It is the only hostel in bada Aceh, the capital city of Aceh province, and it's a very nice hostel to stay in. The beds are very comfortable, the hosts are very nice, and location is very close to the attractions in the city. It is a nice place to stay before heading to sabang, and they can help you with your planning for sabang, and give you good tips for food in bada Aceh.

Lala Hostel is maybe the best Hostel I have seen in all South Asia. This is by far the most clean that I have been. I stayed 20 days there and never seen any dirt !! The staff working there is so welcoming and helping everyone to get the best experience there. Ilham will give you a lot of different tips if you are looking to visit the region, planning to go to sabang… I would definitely recommend it

Pillow and bed are comfortable. Every bunk bed has curtains to keep your privacy. It has locker too!

Suggest some basic hostel rules particularly around noise at night in the dormitories. My roommate was on the phone at 1.30am and receiving calls around 4am - her volume on full. Hopefully simple rules will stop this behaviour! Also hooks in the bathroom, there are shelves but for the taller people.

Ilham was great, knowledgeable and helpful. Hostel was a 30min walk to the main centre and sights of Aceh.

A lot of mosquitos in the hostel. In the room too

The staff was really friendly and helpful. Room was nice and cold

Dorms are a bit small for 4, we stayed with 2 in a 4-bed dorm and that was perfect!

Super kind staff and clean facilities

There is nothing to dislike - I think Ache is less travelled so I didn’t meet any other backpackers while I was there but all the locals that I met were so welcoming and ready to show me around Ache!

The staff are the highlight, so lovely and helpful! I learnt a lot about Ache because of them and they gave me a lot of advise. Facilities are clean and bed was comfortable! Tea and coffee available is always lush! I stayed 4 nights over all and I left my backpack for a few days when I visited Sabang. I would stay there again :)

I believe this hostel is one out of leading hostels in Banda Aceh. Located in the city center and you can just make your journey by staying here. Pretty worth staying!!!!

Poor owner doesn't get to take a break, everyone wants to stay here (this review probably won't help, sorry in advance) :)

I always put my faith in good reviews - and they didn't disappoint once again. This hostel is everything you want in a hostel - good location, clean rooms, everything's working properly (from AC to Wifi), good price, and probably the coolest people you'll find in this city, from the owner to the guests.

The best place to stay in Banda Aceh. Good Wi-Fi, comfortable bed and bathrooms, free water, coffee and tea. But the important is lovely people who can help you for any situation, tell about city and locations and of course have a good talks

Stayed at Lala hostel twice already. It’s like a luxury hotel in Indonesia. Hot water, clean, comfortable bed, small rooms with only 4 beds so doesn’t feel crowded. Tea and coffee facilities. Had a very good sleep. If you need to work wifi is great.

Surely the best budget option in Banda Aceh. The host Ilham is a super nice guy, with good local knowledge, also super helpful in every corner. Can highly recommend that hostel.
