(WARNING: DANGEROUS) This is a hostel with extremely poor No Main Gate. 绝不推荐！极度危险没大门的Hostel。
Pros:

✅房主回复迅速。
✅The hostel owner responded quickly.
✅感谢屋主取消让我拿回一点抽税。
✅Thank you for canceling it, which allowed me to get some tax back.
😭我看到环境恶劣马上离开，没入住。我不小心点到最便宜的取消没退款。屋主不善良，不肯私底下给回我钱。屋主在软件取消我的订单，我只能拿回软件的抽税小钱，屋主的2天租金自己赚拿了。
😭I left immediately upon seeing the poor condition and didn't check in. I accidentally clicked the cheapest cancellation option and didn't get a refund. The owner was unkind and refused to give me my money back privately. The owner canceled my booking through the app, so I can only get the app's tax back; the owner has kept the 2days rent money.

Cons:

🛑 绝不推荐！极度危险且肮脏的Hostel
🛑 DO NOT RECOMMEND! EXTREMELY DANGEROUS & FILTHY!
“警告：存在重大安全和卫生风险（警告：危险）”。
“Warning: Major Security & Hygiene Risks (WARNING: DANGEROUS)”。
这是一个环境极差、低端宿舍（Hostel）。
* 安全隐患： 建筑和停车场完全没有大门，任何人都可以随意进出。大门口聚集成群的外劳在抽烟，眼神令人不安，住在这里完全没有安全感。
* 货不对办： 照片全是看不出不是屋子。
* 地点远与所有景点和城市
总结： 这里的环境不好。为了你的生命安全和健康，请绕道！
Absolute Poor! It is a poorly managed, filthy, and low-end Hostel.
* Safety Concerns: There is NO main gate for the building or the parking area. Anyone can walk in and out freely. The entrance is constantly crowded with foreign workers smoking and loitering, making it feel extremely unsafe and intimidating.
* Misleading Listings: The photos don't show any houses at all.
* Location far from all attractions and cities
Conclusion: For your own safety and health, please STAY AWAY!

Pros:

Klein aber fein... keine 6 qm, aber AC, Steckdose, schnelles Internet und saubere Toilette um die Ecke.

Cons:

Kein Personal vorhanden, alles laeuft digital... und wenn man aus dem Ausland kommt und keine Internetverbindung hat ist man aufgeschmissen... Zahlencode fuer Eingangstuer, Wlan-Passwort, Zimmernummer wird alles per WhatsApp mitgeteilt... kein Internet bedeutet kein reinkommen

Partez, vite
Pros:

Rien

Cons:

Premièrement, difficile de trouver l’endroit car rien d’indiqué et pas de personnel.
Deuxièmement, l’endroit fait abandonner.
Ensuite, sommier cassé, impossible de dormir droit, c’est en pente. La douche du bas ne fonctionne pas, pas de pq dans les toilettes, et surtout, ne vous attendez pas à avoir de l’eau chaude !
L’odeur dans la chambre est plus que humide, sans parler de la climatisation qui nous a lâcher en début de nuit et de la luminosité omniprésente au réveil. Pour couronner le tout, l’isolation n’est pas au rendez-vous. Pas de sécurité
Préparez vos jambes, car vous êtes loin de tout.

DON'T STAY HERE IF YOU CAN AVOID THIS HOLE
Pros:

The room has a more or less comfortable bed

Cons:

Horrible place. Wouldn't recommend anyone to stay here. The "Hostel" has no visibility from outside thus difficult to identify the right building.
Worst is the employee that seems to manage the place. He refused to answer questions on phone or on booking. Insisting to communicate only on WhatsApp. He was rude and hang up on me when I called him and asked for help to identify the right entrance.
