A few things to point out. We thought we had booked an en-suite with our private room. It was a shower- no toilet, still had to use the communal toilet. The accommodation only had hand towels, no full body towels- I appreciate this is a cultural thing but there was no option given to guests. Yes the streets around the building are noisy- didn’t bother us as much as we were up really early and gone for 15 hours most days and would pass out after the day. There is no elevator so be prepared to carry your bag up a few flights. Room was very small. We didn’t meet any staff members while we were there- a bit odd? Our communication was through what’s app. The booking has guest house- I thought it was like a bed and breakfast but in actual fact it’s a hostel.

This guesthouse is located in the middle of several nightclubs that blasted music until 5am. This was not mentioned in the property description and the room was not soundproofed! We booked for three nights but had no choice but to find other accommodation after a sleepless night. Unless you are into clubbing and plan to go to bed at 5am this is not the place for you! The beds are also rock hard!

This was one of the worst experiences I’ve had at a hostel. When I walked in, the attendant looked me up and down with clear disdain, then immediately berated me to “be quiet” — before I had even said a single word. Apparently, there was a “very important guest” staying there, and regular paying customers like me were treated like a nuisance. It was an incredibly rude and unprofessional way to welcome someone. I will never stay here again, and I strongly advise others to avoid it too.

Don’t stay here unless you are fine with music blasting 24/7 and dogs barking all night. I ended up leaving early and only staying 1 out of 3 nights. The bar(?) underneath the hostel has loud music going nonstop (no joke, it did not turn off or quieter at all) and it is located right beside a dog cafe where the dogs are barking constantly. And the bed was hard as a rock. I’m not sure if it is different on weekdays, but in the morning, there was an abundance of trash and throw up on the streets. The only positive aspect of this place was the gentleman at the front desk who was very friendly and helpful.

Property itself is safe and clean, but staff isn't there much and the area around it is very noisy as it is all bars and party establishments.

Super loud at night, but for the price what can you expect. Have to be a heavy sleeper, and it’ll be perfect if you want to party every night

Terrible beds and loud music all night

The "beds" were more like boards and were incredibly uncomfortable. Destroyed my back. Plus, its in the nightclub district so there was loud dance music playing until 4am. Probably the worst hostel I've stayed at.
