The full team is wonderful and they help you with everything they can. The hostel is pretty, clean and very well organized. The common areas are very cozy. This has been for me the best hostel in all Malaysia 🙂🙃🙂
Spotlessly clean, staff were so kind, great location right near the park and excellent food much cheaper than in the park!! No air con and cold shower only which we were expecting so no complaints.
Amazing culture, stunning sunsets from the hostel panorama window and very clean! Definitely one of the very best hostels I’ve been in so far. Special thanks to Jenny of the hostel staff for integrating new people into the amazing social culture!
Great location, great food, warm personnel and comfy and clean room. Couldn't have wished for more for that price, we stayed at the dormitory.
Great location and nice price for low-budget travellers. Very near to city centre and food court. Also, the owner prepared tourist information for sharing, which was very useful for backpackers.
