The structure is perfect! Once you enter you will never want to leave! The owner is the kindest and most altruistic person you will meet during your trip. All the staff are super helpful (they picked us up at the station and picked us to the main road several times) The services are always clean, the kitchen is very spacious and well served, the owner has also provided tea and several infusions for every need, all of high quality. Relaxing outside will be a must! More than in a hostel I felt like I was staying in a 5-star hotel !! 😍 The owner also made us do meditation and for my birthday they also organized a wonderful surprise, I couldn’t ask for anything better, we felt like family, we can’t wait to come back!

I had a great time at this hostel. It's a chilled and social vibe, met many nice people and stayed for 4 nights at the end. The breakfast was okay (noodles with Dhal Curry). The location is a bit further in the "jungle", but the surrounding of nature is beautiful. Just from my perspective the prizes for the scooter and bicycle rent was a bit too high (compared to thei conditions of the bikes).

I had a very good stay at this hotel. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the room was clean and comfortable with everything I needed for a pleasant stay. The location is convenient, close to Kabalana Beach, which made it easy to get around. Overall, it was a nice experience and good value for the money. I would be happy to stay here again.

It is a good place to rest, pass by a tuk tuk if you want to go to the beach or you can get there on foot in about 15 minutes.

Very nice welcoming staff who were very helpful, they also took our clothes to be cleaned for a small fee. The whole place was very modern and clean, also a short walk from the beach/main road with plenty or bars, cafes & restaurants. Would definitely visit again if we ever came back.

A very nice, new hostel, super clean. The location is very good, just next to the bus and railway station and also, very close to the fort entrance, only some minutes on foot. People work there are very kind and helpful. There is also a pud downstairs of the hostel where visitors can find very tasty local food in good prices and huge portions. I would highly recommend this place
