    No issues!

    The property is a lovely little hospital with excellent, helpful and friendly staff. The room was comfortable and clean, and the kitchen and fridge area, including free drinking water and tea and coffee, were well equipped and well maintained.

    Thin walls, sometimes we heard people in the room next to us talking very loudly.

    It was nice. The Hostel is clean and comfortable. The room for two people was small but has everything you need. The people there are very professional and nice! I liked my stay here and would recommend the Hostel.

    Location could be a little more central but it’s nice to be in a quieter neighbourhood too. The social space could be more comfortable

    Very nice hostel, so much space in the dorm, no bunk beds, extremely clean, helpful staff, free breakfast and coffee, excellent value for money

    Roosters can be heard very very loudly in the dorm without AC. They start at 2am and don’t stop until 9am. Quite hard to sleep even with earplugs

    Very clean and modern. Staff is very helpful with booking tours or to organise transport.

    Thin walls and small with bad layout room (double room). Could benefit from more hanging space inside. Hanging for wet clothes outside though. Safe/locker required for room.

    Gabrielle very helpful on the front desk. She booked us our tour. Walkable to restaurants and town.

    It's a little bit far from the city centre, but you can call a tuktuk or rent a motorbike for cheap. So I still recommend to stay here :)

    The stuff is very nice and whole area is very beautiful and has a positive vibe. We loved being here, and it was hard to leave. The changers on the walls are not compatible with European devices, but they gave an adapter and you can also buy it. The Bamboo house war very clean and tidy, the tours we booked was well organised. They are very helpful and flexible with planning. The scuba diving was amazing. I hope we will see each other on the future.

    The only thing we really didn’t like was the lack of noise isolation from the direct neighbours. You could hear people talk and more like they were in your room. Especially when people get back at night very drunk it’s not a pleasure listening to all “that”…

    Very nice and calm area. A 10-15 minute walk to the center. Beds are very comfortable and nice hot showers!

    The 'bedroom' is rather really small, and the AC is set up in a way that goes straight on your head (we ended up sleeping the other way around, and after the first night we caught the cold)

    The bathroom was really nice, and the place on its own was super cool. The staff was extremely helpful, they organized transport from the airport for us and later on transport for the ferry:)

    The way to the dorm does not have a roof so if it rains it could be inconvenient. There are also many roosters singing since 5am - it didn't bother me but in case you're a light sleeper!

    Basic but great small hostel! I would recommend it. Clean, 5min walking to the center, surrounded by local stores. Has a small kitchen and you can prepare yourself coffee and tea anytime. Staff were nice. You can book tours with them too if you want to avoid looking for options. I would recommend other companies as I didn't have the best experience but of course this is not the hostel's fault.

    Room is spacious but no privacy. To be honest, it wasn’t that bad. Hot water didn’t work in the room but there were alternative bathrooms with hot water. Overall not much to complain about.

    Staff were the best!! Super, super helpful with everything like booking tours, ferries, transport anywhere and recommendations for places to eat. Everything was easy to do because of them. One even killed a cockroach for me. Great air conditioning and shared space outdoors with complimentary water, tea and coffee. Place is close to main road with cafes and restaurants, massage parlour, bakery and sari-sari store. Bathroom and toilet were clean! There’s a bedside table with a locker but BYO padlock.

    The night shift staff are lazy and not useful when we ask for stuff. We didn’t even really feel like they’re caretakers lol. Also, the room was kinda small so it was hard to move inside. And we were not provided with a place to hang our wet clothes when all other rooms had one. We asked but we were told there was none available. We were only given the next day when the others checked out already and we asked about it. Another thing we really didn’t like was the big group of Filipino guests from Luzon. They were VERY NOISY from dawn til late night as if they own the whole place. We requested for the night shift staff to tell them to lower their voices cause there are other guests in the hostel (which is us), but the night shift staff didn’t do anything lol. She just let them keep being noisy. We had to tell the Filipino group ourselves because they wouldn’t stop with the very loud voices and laughs (and it was already past 10pm that time). We were also woken up very early the next day cause they were really noisy at 6am already. If only the caretakers took action themselves because they know it’s a hostel and normal voices can be heard inside the rooms so what more if they were really loud, right?

    I like how the day shift staff is very polite and hardworking. She’s very welcoming and attentive to the needs of the guests. The kitchen was also useful as they have a lot of stuff you can use. And the common places are cleaned regularly.
