Worst staff ever
Pros:

The absolute disrespect from the staff makes the experience terrible.

Cons:

The worst staff I have ever encountered in my life. The team is extremely disrespectful; they talk bad about the guests in Thai right in front of them. One of the receptionists is even mocking and sarcastic when you ask her for something. They scream and laugh loudly in the morning. One day, they woke me up before 9:00 AM to change rooms, claiming they had to clean the air conditioning. Whenever it rains, the hostel loses power and stays blacked out for hours. At night, you are kept awake by the noise from the bars; early in the morning, by the staff themselves.
