Booked a private room for my partner and I. Check in was easy, room was very clean and had a good amount of space. The staff were all very helpful and the stay was good value. I can’t speak to the backpacker side of things, but the vibes were good and we would happily stay here again.

8/10 Very good

The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. I stayed in a solo room with a private bath. I chose the budget interior option and I was pleased with the choice. Note there are no typical amenities such as gym or pool. Also, there is no maid service unless you put the door tag out requesting service. If you are comfortable with those tradeoffs than this might be worth it.

Great hotel! Staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. The restaurant serves delicious food and has vegetarian options as well and very affordable prices. The community kitchen is massive, having a travel agency for local attractions is simply amazing. 100% recommendable!

Perfectly comfortable hostel. Nice shared eating area with what looked like quite a lot of well furnished kitchen space. Room with an ensuite bath was comfortable, had everything I needed for a long layover before continuing further south. There’s a desk where you can get info about things to do in the area and the staff there were really helpful- I didn’t know whether they’d just be trying to push pricey tours on me but they were very happy to just help me pick between a variety of free hikes and figure out how to get to them. That was super appreciated!
