“Great Location and Spacious Family Room”
Stayed at Yaarl Hostel and had a pleasant experience overall. The location is great and very convenient. We took the family room, which was quite big and spacious, making it comfortable for a family stay. Check-in and check-out were easy and smooth, which made the stay hassle-free. One of the highlights is that it’s within walking distance to Malayan Cafe, making it easy to grab meals anytime.

“A dissapointed experience”
The staff was rude. Service was poor. Rooms and bathroom were not clean. The staff asks us to clean if we want to stay, telling its not their job and the cleaning person is not available.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. They let me do an early check in and late check out. The breakfast is included and was very delicious. It’s offered even after 10am. The hostel is well situated but not well maintained at all. Everything is dirty. I didn’t see them clean our room once in 3 days. I’m not even sure they cleaned the bedsheets…There is no real common area. Overall it was okay. But they should really work on the cleanness.
