Following is feedback posted by visitors to this property:Very disappointed of our night in this backpacker : dirty showers, dirty kitchen and unpleasant staff. The worst thing happened when we checked out just 30mn after the time and that the boss insisted that we had to pay 30$ pp! when we said that it was unfair , he explained us that it was just business! our advice is that nobody should go there even if you are looking for a budget accomodation.

Even for budget accommodation i would at least expect fresh clean sheets, not good enough, suspect stains and used smell to them. Not happy.
