Della

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
No reception staff. Three people approached me needing help to find their rooms. They had no emails after 1500 with the necessary info needed with room number and codes. Poor mattresses. Anytime anyone moved in bed the springs squeezed. I stayed in room 100 and around 0030 you could hear loud pounding upstairs and constant moving of what sounded like heavy chairs/furniture. The hall smells of faint sewer all the tome. Price was ok but won’t be back. Only convenience is great location.

Improve the service !

Everything was fine until the housekeeper (a young guy) started knocking in the morning. Check out at 11 o'clock, he started knocking and immediately opened the door at 9 o'clock in the morning - it's terrible! When I opened it, he couldn't really explain what he needed from me so early.

Be aware that there is no reception. You need to receive a sms for your room number and code that i didn't received, so you have to writd them an email. You are by yourself. No option for late checkout, they don't allow. You can leave your luggage in lockers for $20 or more depending of the size.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
There were no lockers in or around the rooms, no staff, two toilets and one shower for the whole floor. The bathrooms had toilet paper all over the floor. The kitchen sink would only do super hot water, that smelled like the lagoon. The vending machine did not have normal water. No staff visible.

Disliked: Staff & service
I don't recommend this hostel because the room had not prepared at 3pm. After checking in, bed making staff came into my room and start bed making with laughing loudly. They did not explain the reason because they don't speak english. In several minutes later, another cleaning staff came in and start cleaning. That experience was very unpleasant.
