Stayed here with some friends for 3 nights. The location is really great,right in the heart of the backpacker area. Room was a decent size but we only got one small cover per double bed that was only big enough to cover one person. Also the bathroom door handle was falling off and wouldn't lock and our room wasn't cleaned... More
