I recently had the pleasure of staying at a backpacker hostel during my solo travel adventure, and I must say it exceeded all my expectations! I couldn't have asked for a better experience, and I wholeheartedly give this hostel a well-deserved 10-star rating. First and foremost, the staff at this hostel were absolutely phenomenal. From the moment I walked in, they greeted me with warm smiles and genuine hospitality. They went above and beyond to ensure that my stay was comfortable and enjoyable. Whether I needed recommendations for local attractions, directions to nearby places, or simply a friendly chat, the staff were always there to assist me. Their dedication and attentiveness truly made me feel at home. The location of the hostel was also superb. It was conveniently situated in a prime area, surrounded by vibrant streets filled with local markets, cafes, and cultural landmarks. I was able to explore the city effortlessly, and the hostel's proximity to public transportation made it incredibly easy to venture further afield. It was the perfect base for my solo travel adventure, allowing me to immerse myself in the local culture and experience everything the city had to offer. Moreover, the hostel exceeded my expectations in terms of the facilities and amenities provided. The dorm rooms were clean and comfortable, and the common areas were thoughtfully designed, creating a welcoming atmosphere for socializing with fellow travelers. The hostel also organized various events and activities, which provided fantastic opportunities to meet like-minded individuals and make lifelong friends. It was an incredible social experience that added immense value to my journey. Overall, this backpacker hostel truly went above and beyond to create an unforgettable experience for solo travelers like myself. The exceptional staff, perfect location, and the chance to meet incredible people were the highlights of my stay.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Good location, good staffs. When I reached to the hostel, they wanted to suggest me another option of the lower bunk bed in another mix dormitory(Ⅰbooked 1 Lady dorm but already occupied lower bunk beds). More over, after arguing with other inns, when I was suddenly told that I wanted to come back here, I was warmly welcomed immediately.
