Très bien mais vigilance météo
Pros:

Très bel environnement, personnel aimable et réactif et de bon conseil. Chambre confortable avec climatisation et salle de bain fonctionnelle. Eau chaude très appréciable. Les lits sont de bonne facture. Cuisine partagée petite mais suffisante. Bon emplacement à 5m à pied de l'embarcadère.

Cons:

Attention à la météo : lors de notre séjour, des pluies violentes et diluviennes ont impacté notre séjour. L'ensemble du village se retrouve inondé, et les endroits partagés (cuisine, chemins d'accès ...) des cabinas sont complètement sous l'eau. Résultat : on patauge toute la journée avec de l'eau parfois jusqu'aux mollets. Les chambres surélevées ne sont heureusement pas impactées. Des pannes de courant pouvant durer plusieurs heures sont également à prévoir, il faut bien s'organiser et être capable de s'adapter à ce genre de situation !

Sencillo pero confortable
Pros:

El sitio era muy sencillo, pero estaba bastante bien, limpio, y cumplía perfectamente con su función que era solo ir a dormir y poco más xq el resto del tiempo lo pasas fuera de excursión, muy céntrico.

Cons:

Las zonas comunes un poco incómodas, la cocina pequeña, una única nevera pequeña y compartida con todos los que allí se alojaban por lo que no podías meter a penas nada, pero si tú intención no es ocinar allí el sitio es buena opción por su calidad precio

Pros:

Good location, the national park and the village are within walking distance. The owner was very welcoming and helpful with organising tours.

Cons:

As there are naturally lots of mosquitos around in rainy season, mosquito nets over the bed would be a big plus:)

Pros:

Struttura semplice e accogliente, vicinissima all'attacco del traghetto, all'entrata del parco e a tutti i servizi.
La ragazza che ci ha accolto è stata molto gentile e disponibile, ci ha aiutato a organizzare le escursioni e il traghetto di rientro. Consigliato!

Rövid tartozkodásra elfogadható szálláshely
Pros:

A szoba méretében megfelelő, kényelmes ággyal, elég tágas fürdőszobával. A szoba berendezése, bútorzata kissé elavult, nem ártana egy felújítás. Meleg víz állandó jelleggel volt a szálláson. Nagyon jó helyen található, közel mindenhez. Szép volt a kertje. A szálláson ingyenes kávé/tea elérhető állandó jelleggel, a recepciós hölgy is kedves volt. Sajnos a fél napos áramkimaradás miatt (ami elég gyakori a környéken értesüléseim szerint) a légkondi nem működött, a telefonokat sem tudtuk tölteni, reggeli kávé sem volt. Ez elég kellemetlenül érintett.

Cons:

- A szobák nagyon közel vannak egymáshoz, így a szomszédból minden zaj hallatszott, a mellettünk levő fiatal lánycsapat néha a bejárat előtti teret-teraszt is elfoglalta.
- A gyakori áramszünet.

Pros:

O hostel é bem localizado, super proximo do local de embarque dos barcos e também doa restaurantes (a parte turística é uma ruazinha principal com tudo la). Fiquei no dormitorio com 12 camas e 4 delas eram no esquema "caixa" (fiquei numa dessas, pois tenho um pouco mais de privacidade). O quarto tem 2 banheiros e todo mundo recebe uma chave (do quarto e do portao). Você pode agendar os tours direto na recepção tambem se preferir. Eles ainda oferexem café e chá a vontade (nao tem cafe da manhã).

Cons:

Três questões principais:
1) locker do quarto é muito pequeno. Nao cabia nem uma mochila normal - apenas mochila muito pequena ou objetos menores.
2) não tem ar condicionado, apenas ventiladores pequenos. Na caixa onde fiquei eles deixam um mini ventilador, que nao fica penduradp (vc tem que descobrir a melhor maneira de usa-lo). E la faz muuuito calor quando nao chove.
3) dos dois banheiros disponiveis no quarto, um tinha agua morninha, e o outro, tinha agua fria apenas.
