Awesome hostel

Amazing hostel, very spacious with many different hangout areas. Staff friendly and helpful. Room was everything that I needed, basic and small but cleverly designed so that you have space to put things, great night light too. Many thanks and I highly recommend.

A very nice, clean and quiet hostel with hot showers, cooking facilities, 24h reception and a great rooftop area. The hostel café is very good too, it’s possible to get breakfast all day and just down the street is an excellent warung with plenty of vegetarian options (which is rare). All in all I would wholeheartedly recommend it to everyone!

très agréable

Très bien, rien à redire, seul chose un peu étrange la grosse blatte dans la chambre, mais sincèrement à part cela tout est bon. Le thé et le café dispo 24H24 c'est franchement pratique. La gare n'est pas loin, il y a plein de vie dans le quartier, une mosquée une paroisse catholique, des églises protestantes, des temples bouddhistes...

Très agréable

Vraiment très propre. Juste à deux pas d'une mosquée sympa, de plusieurs temples et de l'église merveilleuse de Notre Dame de Fatima. Du thé, du café, un frigo. Sincerely j'ai rien trouvé à redire. J'ai eu le bonheur de trouver une énorme blatte dans la chambre, mais d'un côté on est chez elle. Rien de plus.
