Very sociable hostel - but not a big party vibe which I loved. The staff, in particular Joe & Naijeen were super friendly and helpful and there's always some activity to join in with. They brought us out on trips to local attractions and helped us sort out scooters for the journey, even organising birthday cake on a whim for some friends! Rooms were comfortable with air con & a fan and plenty of space for your stuff. Also space on the roof to hang out or do some yoga! Would highly recommend staying here I had a wonderful stay 😊

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.

    The location was perfect, a 5 minute drive or 15 minute walk from airport. The staff were friendly and organised a taxi to the airport for us at 3am, they were also communicative over WhatsApp when needed. The room itself was fine, had air conditioning and was a good size for two people for one night looking for a cheap stay near the airport.

    Good location, good staffs. When I reached to the hostel, they wanted to suggest me another option of the lower bunk bed in another mix dormitory(Ⅰbooked 1 Lady dorm but already occupied lower bunk beds). More over, after arguing with other inns, when I was suddenly told that I wanted to come back here, I was warmly welcomed immediately.
