Great value for your money

This place never disappoints. It’s a great economy place to stay. It is clean, pretty quiet and the coffee is good. They also offer a breakfast in the morning.

Disliked: Staff & service

Good for backpacker.... but simple.

The address listed at hotels.com was wrong. Fortunately someone was near the "old site" and gave us directions (sort of). Since we had an unexpected prolonged walk, we were caught in a tropical rain storm, and on arrival (drenched) a 3% surcharge was added for using a credit card (not mentioned). Housing was simple, small, a bit cramped, but adequate for price. Phot0 of room did not match at all. People friendly, room cleaning during stay non-existent. All and all, ok backpacker's place
