Déçu par le personnel
Pros:

La piscine.

Cons:

Personnel antipathique (au check-in et au petit-déjeuner). Le petit-déjeuner était passable. Le ventilateur ne fonctionnait pas bien. La chambre était très petite. Au final, cher et relativement loin du centre.

Relaxed stay before and after jungle excursions.
Pros:

The pool was great for cooling off.

Cons:

Because people are coming and going from the tours, the bar and other communal areas are not overly social.

Pros:

- Der Pool, der regelmäßig gereinigt wurde
- Das viele Obst zum Frühstück
- Spaghetti Bolognese ist lecker dort
- Hängematten-Area mit Ladestation ist super, besonders wenn man schon ausgecheckt hat aber der Bus erst am Abend fährt
- süße Katze

Cons:

- Die Dusche war nur einmal warm, sonst immer kalt (was bei den Temperaturen nicht allzu schlimm ist aber nach dem Pool ist eine heiße Dusche schöner)
- die Hängematten stinken extrem nach Schweiß, sie müssten Mal gewaschen werden
- die zwei Damen waren extrem freundlich aber der Mitarbeiter könnte definitiv freundlicher sein
- das Bett ist nicht sehr bequem und man spürt jede Bewegung vom Partner
- DER ABSOLUT GRÖẞTE MINUSPUNKT: Wir haben dort für teure 17bs pro Kilo unsere Wäsche waschen lassen und sie kam komplett dreckig zurück. Wir hatten es schon öfter, dass nach der Wäsche manche Flecken nicht rausgingen aber das gar kein Fleck rausgeht hatten wir noch nie. Jetzt sind die Flecken (einfacher Schlamm, normalerweise einfach rauszuwaschen) noch fester drin und wir haben super viel Mühe, sie überhaupt wieder rauszukommen. Wir finden es nicht in Ordnung, so viel Geld zu verlangen und dann die Wäsche nicht richtig zu waschen

Pros:

Nice and cosy hostel with a swimming pool and a good vibe

Cons:

The room had no AC or ventilation so it was like sleeping in a sauna. But for this price with breakfast and swimming pool included I'm ok with that.
