+: Second time staying, it's such a little oasis. Comfy bed, outdoor shower, AMAZING milkshakes and food. I was working remotely and was able to take work calls from the swimming pool.

+: Really nice place overall. Bathrooms were always clean. Dorm is quite big and enough space for everything. There are also some shelves which is quite nice. Beds are big and not only standard small. Wifi overall good, sometimes bit spoty but works for calls. It is a place with quite some locals. Kitchen has the basic things.
-: Food is quite expensive. For example small small plate of chicken wings for 500 which is a lot. There are no lockers in the dorms, which would be nice. Fans don't really help the top beds so quite hot.

+: Loved the restaurant on site, such good food! The pool is fantastic, nice chill area and overall relaxing mellow vibe.
-: Air con in rooms would be amazing, its just so hot that it's hard to sleep in summer even with fans. Also a little bit far away from everything.
