“Stay away from this place!”

I liked the host very much. Everything I asked for he helped me with. I felt mostly comfortable in the room. And if there was a small problem he was there immediately to help. One of the best hosts I ever had.

Wanted to try something different and this place attracts a fascinating mix of people from around the world. Real old school sharehouse feel. Incredibly cheap. Bathroom looks old but actually shower pressure is fantastic. Air conditioning in my room.

“Cheap but it’s the only bonus.”
The place need a some deepncleaning and renovation. The bed is hard. The guys does everything to be nice and kind but it really should improve a bit. The bed is rock hard, the mattress is 2 inches thin and the AC insufficient. It’s a bargain per se, close to the airport and easily accessibile with number 9 Mikrolet… but that’s all.

“Nice location”
The location was nice. Walking distance from Timor Plaza, Dili's biggest (and perhaps the only) mall. Microlet (public minibus) no. 9 also pass by near the hostel, making it convinient to go to other places using public transport. The staff were helpful and friendly.

The hospitality of the manager, he picked me up from the airport at a very short notice. He gave me plenty of suggestions for exploring Dili ranging from vegetarian food options, transport to buying souvenirs. He pays attention to every guest's needs and is very flexible and kind. I highly recommend to book this place if you are in Dili. You will be surprised by the size of the heart of the owner. He is now a friend. 100 out of 10!!
