Reviews

Fatimazahra 9/10

Pros: The property is really nice and well maintained, it has a unique style .

Cons: The rooms are not very well isolated and expect noise

Chandra 8/10

Pros: The location was great. Right in the middle of multiple Georgetown highlights. Staff was ok, but shoutout to the guy (forgot to ask his name) who worked 10 feb in the evening. He was lovely. As mentioned by multiple people it is quite loud, but for me it was ok. I was aware, but this is def. Not the place for you if you are a light sleeper.

Cons: Everyone really sticks to themselves. Would be nice if there was something organised by the hostel.

No frills. Decent for the price!

Pros: Location was really good for most of the places I wanted to do and visit and also 10min walk to ferry port. I stayed in a private twin room which was pretty basic but bed linen was clean and bed was comfortable.

Cons: When I stayed, there was no reception staff until after midday - and no contact number or instructions provided at the empty desk… The bath towels are old and tatty… I had to ask to replace mine twice due to black marks and thinness. The shared semi-outdoor bathrooms upstairs was not ideal. Became extremely warm at times especially during the day

Recommend to anyone visiting Georgetown.

Pros: Good location, good clean facilities and comfy beds with good pillows. Nice common areas with lots of space to chill.

Cons: We stayed in the 4 bed mixed dorm with double beds, there are no curtains on the beds for privacy and the locker spaces aren’t big enough to store both persons luggage if you have larger bags / multiple bags per person. Not exactly a dislike just something to be aware of.

Pros: Very nice hostel with excellent facilities. We don’t normally enjoy staying in hostels with shared room, but this hostel was extremely clean - the bathroom was always impeccable. You also had enough space in the room for your stuff and there were a lot of different areas where you could relax on your own

Pros: - I loved the urban design of the hostel - You have lockers in the room, which is very practical. - The hostel is located very centrally so you can explore city on foot - clean bathrooms

Cons: - Two of the four toilets were not working during my stay, which was a bit annoying cause sometimes there are waiting times in the bathrooms - the room smelled a bit musty - I had some issues to find the hostel first cause there’s no sign outside the building

Pros: I stayed here for 3 nights and loved it! The hostel is super clean, well-organised, and exactly as aesthetic as it looks in the photos. It’s also in a great location, close to everything you need. Totally worth it! Also, the coffee shop is really good!
