Being a hostel i was expecting a rough stay but I was really surprised by this place. Overall we had a lovely stay here and would have happily stayed longer. The room was nice and big. the beds were very comfortable. The gardens were fabulous, beautifully landscaped with nice tropical trees, a small stream etc. The pool was a great plus. It also had lots of BBQ stations around the place. Our room was a triple which had a big double bed and a set of bunk beds. It had an en-suite bathroom and a . all reviews »

Location.
One staff at the reception is very nice and helpful.
Good location.
The room had a little kitchen but no dishes or pots you could use in it.
The pamper package thing was a con, I really didn't need a towel and some shampoo!
The beds were very rickety so I disturbed the girl underneath me quite a lot!.
Curtains didn't give much privacy.
front door stuck no washing machine.
Tv unit could be a lot better.
It is not very clean. All taps and showers liking and noisy.
The kitchen is the dirtiest I ever seen.
Running taps all night long. No plates or cutlery in unit. Mould on walls. No shower curtain so bathroom floor got flooded each time we had a shower.
The place needs a dose of maintenance. I found a dead cockroach in one of the cupboards. The spa bath didn't work. The kitchenette comes with no equipment. We bring camping gear with us so it wasn't the biggest deal but this should probably be advertised.
the arrogance of the staff, the drugs around.
Airconditioner , noisy , old
Bathroom, rundown in need of update
Generally rundown and in need of update.
Dirty
Long distance to services
No wifi in the room.
Staff is not very friendly. Time for check in was very long.
One staff at reception is impolite I'm afraid. Clean sheets but very
noisy air-con and insects verywhere, We can hardly fall alseep.
Not very clean. The staff is not very friendly. No lockers. No enough
blankets for everyone. Without light above the bed.
