The worst hostel I ever stayed in. The hostel is badly maintained. It's dirty and has cockroaches in the toilet and bath. It is smelly as well. The rooms are too small but they squeezed in 4 bunk beds inside, 8 people in a size of a bathroom. The aircon is not working properly at night and during the day when it is not allowed to use aircon, there is only 1 fan in the room that cannot cover the entire space, doesn't work properly because old and also very dirty. The worst situation to be in a tropical country where it's hot and humid.
Also, they put me in a room where the room light is not working. Imagine a dark hole ????️ and you are in it. I told them about it and was told they will fix it tomorrow and I politely ask to do something about it during the day it is fine but at night? You cannot see anything. Then they just move me to the next room but the light is so dim. Plus, it's like a chicken house in a factory. Super bad.
I booked for 11 nights but left the next day after a night of stay. I booked via booking.com with the payment on arrival system. I paid in cash upon arrival but when I decided to check out the next day, the receptionist didn't want to give me the rest of the money because according to him I booked on booking.com. It's paid in cash and would have been negotiated but since they are greedy they just took the money and didn't want to meet in between the situation. A perfect example of a business that only wants to earn but doesn't actually love what they do!
