Pathetic stay, Don't fall for the price. Not even basic amminties
Please understand that nobody would ask for a refund is the hotel had amminites and basic cleanliness before checking in. As per my conversation with the hotelier those extra amminites and entertainment where added without the knowledge of the property owner nu. But the customer has to go for a loss in this case. has to provide is the necessary refund . I had go through a emotional torture because it was raining that day and even there was no minimum efforts the property to owner to provide necessary facilities.

Terrible experience
The place is ill-managed. Basic level of hygiene in the room(the rooms are made of wood sticks and are very unstable)washrooms or security is missing. The washrooms are pathetic and the manager doesn’t answer calls or care whether you need anything. I understand that it was a busy season but everyone i spoke to at the property was miserable. Not recommending to anyone.

Average Stay
It was an average stay; the people i met were really good. Basic facilities, staff could have been better. I was asked to shift thrice in 4 days stay which was not acceptable. The interior and rest of the part of hostel is really good.

Great location, really pleasant and clean, but the thing that makes this such a good place to stay are the staff. All of the people are incredibly helpful and generous with their time and advice.

A nice but chaotic place
The stay and everything is a very cool vibe staying in bamboo and everything. The people are really warming the washrooms too are ok but they could have been better. The place has a real cool vibe attested to it. Basically i was here during peak times so may be my opinions might differ. The rooms we booked weren't prepared by our check-in time so they arranged another room in a hustle.
