Strategically located in the city centre, you get a contemporary-themed room - spacious, clean, and well equipped. A restobar serving great food just across the street and numerous other famous food stalls within minutes’ walk. Almost perfect!

They say first impressions last. When I first entered the building, I was already welcomed by a nice smelling stairs going up to the lobby which I can say is very welcoming. They have a unique elevator, too! All the staff share a very friendly smile. The bed is clean and comfortable. They also have comfy slippers. Lastly, the hostel is nearby to many shops, restaurants and market.
