What the reviews say
- The staff maintains high cleanliness standards but can be rigid about following hostel policies rather than offering flexible, personalized service.
- Needing to specifically request female dorms as mixed accommodation is the standard offering.
- Features a clean courtyard and shared kitchen area that serves as the main communal space.
- Staff operates strictly by policy which can feel less flexible than typical backpacker hostels, though they maintain clean facilities and provide free breakfast.
- Mixed dorms are the default, so women need to specifically request female-only dorms when booking.
