Spent my Xmas holidays at this hostel and it was worth every penny. Clean washrooms and cozy beds with air conditioning were some of the best aspects. the hostel was situated in a prime location with public transport and plenty of food options for the foodies nearby. the rooftop was a fantastic place to chill, relax and take in the beautiful city views.

I stayed at this hostel for three nights and it was perfect for my needs. The location was great, with easy access to public transportation and plenty of dining options nearby. The staff was really friendly and helpful, making me feel right at home. I appreciated that the dorm room was clean and secure, giving me peace of mind during my stay.
Absolutely nothing to say about dislikes.

Clean dorm rooms and a good kitchen with free tea/coffee/drinking water is a plus. The location is key as it is nearby to all major places in the city. The price offered is reasonable and worth it.
It can end up being expensive due to the location as you may need to spend a considerable amount on transport. Some staff members behaved rudely when informed of a delayed check-in, so customer service needs improvement.
