Positive: They were really helpful in cancelling my booking 48 hours before even though it said on my booking I couldn’t. I managed to get a refund. I am glad I did only stay one night in this hostel as I booked a no aircon room which I didn’t realise so was quite warm. It was also a very quiet hostel which was okay as I was only there one night. Toilets and showers were kept really clean.
Negative: No aircon, not very sociable.
Summary: Was a good place to stay for a night wouldn’t want to stay longer

Positive: Great social vibes with the volunteers, a fun planning of activities to connect people (yoga, surfing, beach volley, game night, ...), proximity to the train station and main road with restaurants
Negative: Very compact room, difficult to climb on the upper beds and quite hot (fans are powerful so very noisy but much needed), compact showers and toilets too, construction works were happening next door and right under our window

Positive: Cute hostel, nice to have a plunge pool and kitchen. Comfy bed, big locker, curtain, individual light and plug socket. Close to bus stops and train station. Great comms from hostel manager Lucky.
Negative: Most of the guests seem to be "volunteers" and "work" (even they joke they barely do anything!) at the hostel in return for a free stay. This has never been an issue anywhere else I've stayed but here it felt "clicky". They say the right thing but actions speak louder and it's very difficult to integrate a group who have lived together for several weeks so if you're a solo traveller you could be on your own. Also not great when your staff talk about you behind your back in front of the paying guests - gives a really bad impression! Sad as this place has potential to be a lovely hostel!
Summary: "clicky" vibes

Positive: This is a wonderful place to stay. Since the first moment when I arrived I felt the nice vibes of this hostel. It's clean, comfy and there are some nice people working there. They so organize many group events and activities, so it's perfect when you want to socialize. Also the owner literary saved me when my laptop stopped working and he offered me to use his spare one. Loved staying here and I will definitely be back! :)
Summary: Excellent hostel with chill vibes

Positive: Nice hostel for the price with good pancakes & fruits for breakfast. Individual fan right on the top of each bed ! 👌🏼 The staff was lovely and helpful !
Negative: Mattress are too thin you can feel the boards underneath so mattress upgrade would be good 😊 And the room are a bit small for 8 people (on booking it says dormitory of 6 beds but it was actually 8 beds …) not much space to put your stuff except the locker.
Summary: Nice and lovely hostel
