JUST OK

IT WAS JUST REGULAR. THERE SHOULD BE A SHUTTLE BUS TO THE HOSTEL. THE TAXI DRIVERS ABUSE AND THIEVES.

空港の乗り換え宿としては最適

空港から歩いて10分。ただ思った以上に高低差があるのでキャリーケースでは不便かも。住宅街中で日が沈んでからでも治安が悪くなさそうです（夜間で歩いていないのでなんとも）。 周辺に食堂がないので空港で買い出ししてから向かいましたけど結構お高め。

The ladies that run this place are SO SWEET! The breakfast she personally cooked us in the morning was amazing! The location to the airport was so convenient!

8/10 Very good

Super close to airport

I arrived around 9:45 and they couldn’t locate my original reservation. They said they couldn’t find me and didn’t have my reservation. After looking she found the reservation I had made almost 2 months ago she said it was their mistake. Even though they didn’t have my type of room available they were able to accommodate me with another room. After that everything was perfect

This was the first time I stayed at a hostel. It was clean, quiet, and the staff was very friendly and helpful.

Preis Leistung passt

Preis Leistung stimmt hier. Das Hostel ist sehr nah am Flughafen und das Frühstück war gut. Die Zimmer sehr einfach aber ausreichend. Es gab nur ein einziges Badezimmer und mir wurde nichts gezeigt/erklärt, sodass ich mich etwas unwohl fühlte alleine durch die Etagen zu irren. Das Frühstück wird einem frisch gemacht, auch das musste ich selber in Erfahrung bringen. Die Kommunikation kann verbessert werden.

Nice and clean property
AJESHWAR, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

It was generally fine. The shared bathroom was coed and not very private so I didn’t love that and I didn’t really go around the area, but it doesn’t seem like there’s much as you’re just near the airport and that’s the convenience of it. The people were kind and it’s a really good place if you want to be near the airport

Service and courtesy are excellent! I only wish they could have other options to pay for food beside just cash only… But nevertheless, everything else was good!
