    Very clean and modern hostel. Offers a big common area with a nice pool and ping pong table. Beds are comfortable and offer privacy. Breakfast consists of different fruits with oats, eggs or hoppers and is a welcomed variation to dhal curry. Service was good (information and scooter rental) but probably due to low occupancy at our time the reception time was limited.

    Super nice new Hostel, so everything super clean and comfortable right now. Spacious dorm, private bed. Breakfast was amazing (porridge+fruit and also bread+veggies, could have both). I was alone due to the new opening, but looked like a nice place to hang out with people, great pool, table tennis, chill out areas. Also appreciated the possibility to do yoga and the intent to be more sustainable (separate waste and water dispenser, equally shared tips for the whole staff). Saw some turtle on the next closest beach.
