Liked: Staff & service, room comfort

Comfortable place to stay

Third place is super comfortable. The pool is very nice, and the beds in the dorm room each have a fan, and a power outlet for charging. They also have lockers in the dorm rooms. Everything was great, except I'm uncomfortable that they do not provide soap in the bathrooms. Especially during the coronavirus outbreak, I want every person in the place to wash their hands often.
