Pros:

Toller Gemeinschaftsbereich draußen mit Bar, dezenter Musik, schöner Beleuchtung und kuscheliger Katze. Gutes Frühstück. Sehr nette und hilfsbereite Mitarbeiter. Wir wurden zufällig am Flughafen mit eingesammelt als zwei Mitarbeiter auf andere Reisende gewartet haben. Tourenvermittlung auf Empfehlung. Gepäckaufbewahrung während der Tour. Zimmer recht groß. Betten bequem. Es gab einen sanitären Notfall, der sofort behoben wurde.

Cons:

Wir hätten uns mehr Ablagefläche und/oder Haken gewünscht.

Ce n’est pas fait pour les jeunes familles.
Pros:

Nous avons bien aimé la piscine au milieu de la cour quoique l’eau ne semblait pas très propre. Nous avons aussi bien apprécié le rapport qualité prix.

Cons:

Premièrement, la salle de bain de notre chambre n’était pas très propre et on pouvait entendre les gens de l’autre chambre à partir de notre sdb.
Deuxièmement, il manquait énormément d’air climatisé. Troisièmement, nous ne conseillons pas aux familles ou aux adultes de 40 et + d’aller dans cette (Hotel) mais pour les jeunes adultes/ados c’est très abordable et convenable. Merci quand même!

Pros:

Perfect after arriving early to chill in the Hammocks and enjoy a swim in the pool, breakfast was decent and the location really nice. Everything was clean and you can socialize in the whole area.

Pros:

Nous avons aimé la piscine, l'emplacement, le personnel vraiment accommodant, courtois et gentil. Le dejeuner est très bon (oeufs brouillés, café, jus, pain, fruits).

Cons:

La salle de bain dont le mur séparateur ne monte pas jusqu'en haut, et dont on entend les bruits et odeurs de la salle de bain voisine.
Cet hotel est bien, mais moins afaptée pour les familles avec de jeunes enfants, vu le bar de l'hôtel ou il a de l'animation et musique le soir.
La piscine est au centre de l'endroit (donc les chambres autour). Les fenêtres n'ont pas de vitres, seulement des moustiquaires.

A well suited hostel for the survivor of the night bus
Pros:

I stayed for a singular night to rest my weary head after a night bus.

The staff were attentive and allowed me to use the communal areas after I had checked out of my room.

The pool is nice for people of that disposition.

Located near the centre of the small town

Cons:

Generally a good egg all round but the music they play in the comunal areas is a tad loud
