    A nice hostel, clean and quiet. Very nice hosts who go out of their way to make you feel welcome. The lockers are a nice size, about 40x40x40cm (however you’ve got to bring your own lock). The AC is well maintained. And there are at least 10 other hostels on this road, so there’s always someone to meet. Excellent!
