Liked: clean, atmospheric and helpful staff - who are always smiling! a pleasant stay.
Disliked: the bathroom was separate to the room, and shared with another guest, who spent a VERY long time in there both days (over 2 hours!). I booked a 'private single' room on hostel bookers and wasn't expecting this.

Liked: Breakfast was good, small selection but good quality. Small, cosy atmosphere, staff were friendly and helpful. Free wifi connection, PC and bookshelf on rooftop. Air-conditioning in room, mosquito net, towels, soap, tea and hot water.
Disliked: Old room (spirits of nature with ensuite bathroom), dark and small. Walls were painted a dark orange pattern, wardrobes and chair were old. Facing road and noisy even with all windows closed. Bed took up most of space with not room left to move around. Room was clean but due to age and decoration does not feel that way. Old bathroom with just a shower curtain as a door, very poor water pressure, takes ages for a shower. Wear flipflops. Near to a mosque and were woken up before 05:00 am with very clear loud broadcasted calls for prayer.
