Cheap and centrally located but....
I booked this hostel for the price and it was passable but for me the bathrooms were pretty gross and too few in number (1 shower/toilet combo per dorm of 10). The beds were super uncomfortable. Everything else in the common area was kept very clean. They also have a cheap breakfast and the staff is super nice and helpful.

Amazing value, even better staff!
I thought this place was amazing for the price. Very close to the main walking street and restaurants and stores. Still far enough away to not be loud. Very clean place. The staff was AMAZING!!

1-2 rooms per floor, so you can expect to climb up to 5 floors to get to your room WITHOUT a lift. There was problem with water pump and there was no water overnight. Lot of mosquitos wirh stagnant water out on the street. Charged me for a stain on my bedsheet when I was checking out (which i do not feel i caused and I was in a rush to leave for the airport, so just paid it). Possible scam. Overall not worth it

Response from Manager on 17 Jan 2019
Dear customer, We are sorry for the water issue, and it was fixed few hours after the situation. We have many rooms are on lower floors, but because it's high season, the room you booked was the last room, so it's on higher floor. And we also offer mosquito repellent for customer to use for free here. We even have one in room to keep mosquitoes out In order to provide clean bedsheet without any stain, we rent them with bedsheet supply company to make sure we provide high standard quality. We are sorry but it's the policy of the supplier, they charge if there is damage. We are doing long term business and we aware of the customer will feedback bad review so of course it's not scam, we tried to do what is right. We feel sorry about what you experienced here, but it's reasonable to pay what you damage.

Good location, just 2 mins walk from Jungceylon Mall. Like the idea of no shoes, no eating in the room, therefore rooms are very clean and quiet

Great hotel. Close to bars and the beach but tucked away nicely away from main road. Awesome service, clean rooms and beds are comfy enough for the price.

Very comfortable room. Bathroom adequate. Bar and food service not so good but plenty nearby. No elevator is the biggest let down.

Need to made clear that it's a shared room.
Wanted a room for myself wasn't made clear at the start when I booked and paid that I would be sharing with 9 other guests who are complete strangers then there was no refund after I had paid for 3 nights.

Beste Unterkunf für das Geld
Man kriegt was man bezahlt. Das Preisleistungsverhältniss ist super. Alles gut gelegen. The Beach Banglaroad Grosse Shoppungmalls Hatd Rock Cafe und das Hooters. Sonst noch jede Menge alles zu Fuss zu erlaufen. Bonn von der Reception war besonders toll.Hilfe bei Ausflügen wirde geboten.Bei Fragen wird an der Reception kurz und einfach geholfen und berate. Ich habe für eine geringen Aufpreis ein DZ genommen im Erdgeschoss. Alles Perfekt Zudem bauen Sie jetzt gerade den Eingangsbereich um.Sieht schon mal super aus

Hallo Lieber Joerg, Ich Danke dir herzlichst fuer deinen Review. Wir wuenschen dir alles gute und auf ein baldiges Wiedersehen. Wenn dann alles soweit fertig ist erwartet dich das gleiche Hotel mit einer besseren Lobby und demselben hilfabereiten Personal ( haha ) . Habe einen guten Heimflug und schoene Gruesse in die Schweiz.
