Liked: Rooms have lots of space, staff at reception is very helpful and nice. Location is great, close to the lagoon and shops.
Disliked: It's really noisy, it's hard to meet people because of the set-up of the hostel. Also the staff that works for accommodation act like it's they're property and are not friendly to other guests!

Liked: The location was fantastic and the staff were helpful when booking trips and activities.
Disliked: The rooms were small, cramped and quite dirty. The 'pool' is more a dirty, rather large bath tub than somewhere you'd actually swim!
