The host manager was very helpful and guided us with the local routes. The room was clean and quite spacious, with outside shower facility as well. It is located in close proximity to beach and overall a good stay☺️

Amazing host who was super kind and accommodating. I liked that it was on a quiet street just a short 10 minute walk to town or the beach. Quiet area and relaxing space. I booked the dormitory, but was given a room that wasn't listed on the site. It was private, which was nice, but the room and shared bathroom were not as updated/nice as the rooms that are pictured are. I ended up staying there 5 nights still because it was a great deal, but I do with there was more transparency exactly which room I was booking.

“Good Trip but sadly cut short”
The hostel was closed for Poyi festival and I was alone for one night, Podi was very sweet and accomodating when I requested him for an early checkout. The puppies are very adorable and you have a lot of locals who pass by to give you enough company.
