Hostal mandala Evelyn

The staff was friendly and they lend me an extra blanket

I would not recommend staying here. The bathroom was super dirty, I didn’t even want to shower here. Also there were cracks in the walls everywhere and also lots of spiders and cockroaches. The bed also didn’t feel clean. Yes it’s cheap but still too much for what you get in my opinion

Nothing

Everything

Nothing

We booked a private room with shared bathroom. The shared bathroom was in a horrible state as if it hasn’t been cleaned for months. It was dark, walls were all wet, loads of rubbish on the floor, a rotten plank to step on to have shower, soap to wash hands were full of hair. We didn’t dare to use it more than it was necessary. The room conditions was very poor. It didn’t feel clean at all. It was also humid and cold. We couldn’t sleep as we didn’t feel safe and also disgusted. We didn’t dare to explore any other facilities and left the next morning.

Nothing to like. A place people go to when everything else is booked.

The first thing I encountered after arriving on site - the owner tried to scam me to double-pay for the accommodation, saying that online payment through Booking.com didn't go though (which was a lie) and asking me to pay in cash. I stood my ground and she pretended that suddenly everything was okay. Rooms extremely basic, just bare concrete. Nothing was clean. Would not recommend to stay.

I’ve arrived at 12, and I couldn’t get my room, got to leave part of my staff at the kitchen cuz i wanted to go out. Bathroom was clean but to rough. No lock at he rooms door, didn’t feel safe to leave my stuff on my room.

It was very cheap and Evelyn was very very nice. They provide breakfast, which was nice and the place is super central. I had a great time. You should definitely consider it. Recommended, loved it.

It is an economical place and travelers should be aware that there are things which may not be considered appropriate for more picky people. I wouldn't let this get in the way of a good time, but there were things which were not entirely as they should be. I had no issues with any of these things all things considered.
