Only way to the property is walk through an alley about 1.5 meter wide and hard to find it. After find it, the way to the property is steep, through a swing wood bridge, and steep ramp afterward, it’s not safe and not accessible for elders and handicapped. We didn’t stay because my parents can’t get property and have to get another hotel. It also doesn’t have a parking space, the property refuse to issue us the money back. Worst experience ever.

Room smelled like sewage, smell came from a drain in the bathroom. Always a long line to get anything from the reception. Very unhelpful. Overpriced

So the hostel is doing lots of renovations! So the property looks dirtier than the pictures show. There were no towels given but we brought our own. Staff were friendly but the language barrier was a problem. I think once they are done renovating and clean up the property will be beautiful!
