There was a mouse in the kitchen. The cleanness also depends on luck-sometime the corridor might smell like socks, sometimes it’s ok. Staff is friendly.

Generally this place is good. Room is high ceiling. The AC is a little loud and that is the only thing I don’t like

First time in a hostel, and I checked out reviews of several. This had the best reviews, and I was not disappointed at all. Very much deserving of the good reviews.
