I stayed here for a few nights during the rainy season so there were not many people here. I stayed in the mixed dorm room, it was cheap, about $3 USD per night. The beds and room are clean and comfortable, but the bathroom needs some work. The sink in the room was falling apart and the soap provided leaked all over the bathroom. There is also a putrid smell in the bathroom. The window in the room does not have blinds or shades so people outside on the balcony can easily see in at night if the light is on inside. This area is quiet but at night there are weird guys lurking in the shadows that will whisper "hello" to you and if you engage them they will offer all kinds of substances and services. It is about a 10 minute walk to Pub Street for the night life. They serve breakfast and other meals here in the small kitchen area. The swimming pool is just ok, could be cleaner, not many people using it. It is easy to get a taxi or tuk tuk to the airport and local tourist sites.
