    Rooms are just a bed on the floor, no room for bags. There are lockers outside the room though.

    Cheap and clean rooms. The staff is helpful and the location to the airport is convenient (less than 5 min with grab).

    You share the toilet with the restaurant. It would be nice if it was a bit more isolated. Rooms are small but you can fit two people in there with luggage.

    The staff were super nice! Location was good. It is worth the price.

    The aircon worked really well in the room because it was so small😆 the staff where all super sweet and friendly and we witnessed one of the girls deep cleaning the bathroom, so it felt very clean

    Room is small and mattress is directly on the floor (my bad, could have checked the pictures before) so it was full of ants by night time. There's not much around , you need to walk at least 20min to arrive at the road where all the restaurants/shops are. Toilets could be improved

    The place is a 15min walk from the airport Staff is very nice and friendly The restaurant is good (recommended to do the bbq) They offer laundry service for not much Hot water in the shared toilets Nice patio outside to let your things dry The room is small but there's a storage room to keep your luggages. WiFi works well

    OK if you just need a clean place to rest
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveler
    • Budget Double Room
    • Stayed 1 night

    Mattress on the floor takes up about 80% of the space, would be tight for two if staying more than one night. It's okay for one. Somewhat far to walk from the main street (~15 min). Not a place to socialize, no vibe, just some tables with chairs under metal roof as a common space near reception/restaurant. No kitchen, food for purchase (did not try). The staff could not make me even a tea at 6:30am when I was leaving, maybe not their fault, they said all ingredients to cook were in locked cabinets every day until the owner comes at 9am. Hmmm, so much for trusting your employees, if that is true.

    Room was clean, excellent A/C, good towel included, hot water in the showers, okay for one night. Big food supermarket one block away.

    Fairly good value

    The rooms are barely bigger than the mattress, leaving little room for walking or standing. Not a huge problem if you're alone, but I wouldn't want to share a room with someone else. The showers are next to the restaurant section so customers will be able to see you walking to the shower which can be awkward. Mosquitos will enter your room. Bring mosquito spray. This seems to be a problem throughout the city though.

    Pretty good value. Friendly staff. I unexpectedly had to check out an hour late but they were nice about it! There's a restaurant there and some shops maybe 300 meters away? Location is fairly good: not in the center but still walkable. Big lockers. Walkable from/to the airport. Free towel and 2 bottles of water.

    The container is just a mattress on the floor, there was hardly enough space to put both our backpacks also inside, the electricity failed two times in our stay and if the air conditioning isn't working you just cannot be there it's too hot

    Air condition worked, the girls working in the place are always smiling, the mattress was comfy, place was clean, we were given free hot water in the morning, shower is nice

    The room is super small. You dont have space to stand up. It is nothing more than a bed in the room. It is really a container not a proper building. The bathroom is public and shared. It is not Noise proof. mosquito can come into the room through the gaps even though you have closed the door. location Not in the city centre, you have to take taxi to everywhere.

    Staff very friendly and helpful Price is good They have restaurant
