Large place with a pool and fun athmosphere, plus you can order a reasonably priced pizza from a joing nearby. They have security handled and seem like fun people, although there is a bit of chaos when it comes to some furniture falling apart (my bed swayed like crazy), or staff being suddenly gone... I also cannot get it why I wasnt allowed to call a pizza place form a hostel phone, it was just next door wnd would unlikely cost a fortune. The staff are actually the nicest people, just a bit chaotic maybe.

Nice friendly place, with a fun atmosphere but a bit unorganised as I booked in for 3 nights and had to change dorm rooms every day.

Told us they would pay for the shuttle to the bus drop off and then told us they wouldn't just as we were getting in the taxi. Otherwise, can't really complain, but be careful about their recommendations for tour guides (you may just end up really ripped off).

Fine for what it was but the staff weren't always the most informative, epsecially when I was waiting for my transfer to the airport.

Overall, it is a great place to stay. My room's shower had no hot water and was leaking, so I had to share another room's shower. I also hear of recent theft at the hostel, but had no troubles of my own.
