"Un des meilleurs hostel pour moi"

10.0

J’ai adoré cette hostel ! Il est à l’écart donc un peu loin de la ville principale mais au calme dans la jungle. Les espaces communs sont super agréables, l’équipe est top, ils instaurent une super ambiance tres familiale !

"Agréable séjour dans la jungle"

8.0

En pleine nature, c’est paisible.

La douche de la salle de bain des chambres privés est très particulière, elle ne fait pas propre … La cuisine est parfois mal entretenue.

3.0

Lokalizacja - w dzungli. Kazdego ranka budzą Cię małpy, super przyroda.

Czystość - kuchnia w tragicznym stanie. Wszystko brudne, stare, ulepione, zaniedbane. Toaleta - brudna, niesprzątana Pokoje - tak samo brudne i mocno zaniedbane. Personel ktory okupuje non stop kuchnię i nie daje przestrzeni do korzystania z niej. Lodówki w pełni zapełnione przez personel. Jak dla mnie powinno być rozdzielenie kuchni personel / gość hotelowy.

Una maravilla en el medio de la jungla. Excelente atención del personal. Muy confortable lugar. Se puede llegar en uber o en tuk tuk o sí prefieres caminando desde la ruta hasta el hostal.

"Uncomfortable and unpleasant due to the poor lighting and extreme damp"

2.0

Cool quirky design

Really dark and damp room. One of the volunteers said to us ‘I can’t believe people complain about the damp, we’re in a jungle’ which may be a fair enough comment but it was so damp it absolutely impacted our stay and our friends in other properties did not experience this to nowhere near the same extent. Every time we showered we had to borrow the dehumidifier (which should just be left in the room and left on all of the time!). The kitchen is outside, and we’ve used plenty of outside kitchens but this was the most unclean one we’ve used. We just didn’t feel comfortable at all throughout our stay.

"Los dueños muy amables y sitio precioso, pero la habitación deja que desear"

7.0

Muy amable la dueña y precioso el jardín y el edificio, decorado con mucho gusto y muy buena vibra los demás viajeros. Un poco lejos del centro, pero preciosa ubicación en la selva!! Y café gratis :)

La habitación (doble) no nos resultó acogedora, hay una luz blanca cegadora en el techo y ninguna otra luz, nos encontramos el suelo lleno de polvo y el baño no daba la sensación de estar muy limpio. Algunos utensilios de cocina sucios (maderas de cortar con moho etc…). Caro para ser un hostal y en relación con las cosas que mencioné.
