    My 2nd time here & it never disappoints. Spottlessly clean, lovely decor, quality furnishings, super location, helpful staff. Right in the middle of the market yet silent inside. Great value for money. TV, towel etc included.

    ...think the high rating on hostelworld is mainly due to the location...room and bed sheet was dirty...room was freezing cold from the air conditioner..ended up being sick for more than a week..totally ruined my holiday

    This was the second time we stayed there, and we will again next time. When booking through Hostelworld, keep in mind that you can not specify if you want to have a room with window or if youre happy with a cheaper one without window. Reception solved this problem for us though, and changed us... more

    We have stayed in 2 different rooms a regular and a deluxe and the deluxe is much better. There is no window at the regular and you should expect more for that price.

    The room we were in was in need of a good lick of paint. Lovely reception area and lounge downstairs. Great location and better than the hostel we staying in when we first arrived. Make sure you put an accurate time in your booking reservation as they gave our room away due to the default time...

    This place is all about location, location, location. you can walk from the bus, be right in the heart of Chinatown, on the coolest street, and for the price is pretty good. Could have a good cleaning and new sheets but it is cheap and worth it for the location. Good wifi and nice lobby lounge.
