I loved how comfy the bed is. The showers and toilets were separated and kept clean by the care takers. Though I have to keep quite all the time as the dorm was also occupied with other travellers. I checked in quite late and stayed only for 6 hours and prior to my late arrival, as the reception is only available for 12 hours, the management sent me a message on Booking for self check-in which was so convenient and great especially for a late check-in. Thank you for the auntie who was there to help me out as well. Loved her vibe!
Place is situated at the heart of Gaya Street, right in front of Jesselton Hotel and quite close to Wisma Merdeka (which was my main purpose to go there). I'm grateful for the locker underneath. Got to store my luggage inside safely, whilst I roam around the street.

Spotlessly clean, staff were so kind, great location right near the park and excellent food much cheaper than in the park!! No air con and cold shower only which we were expecting so no complaints.
Amazing culture, stunning sunsets from the hostel panorama window and very clean! Definitely one of the very best hostels I’ve been in so far. Special thanks to Jenny of the hostel staff for integrating new people into the amazing social culture!
Great location, great food, warm personnel and comfy and clean room. Couldn't have wished for more for that price, we stayed at the dormitory.
This was without a doubt the best hostel I ever stayed in so far. It’s clean, safe, good facilities, nice rooms, nice kitchen and living room, super friendly people who work there,… I definitely go back!
Typical hostel for backpackers and budget tourists, besides there is practically no other choice in the area. Nicely situated on the riverside, nice relaxing view from the terrace. Modestly equipped, fans in the rooms, tea and coffee available. The hostel has a pleasant homely atmosphere. Wonderful owner Diana who is the soul of this place. Helps with everything, arranges transportation, guide (private guide costs MYR 150 for half day, airport transfer MYR 5 per person), will prepare delicious home-made breakfasts and dinners.
