We saw this hostel online and had a idea of what it would be like after reading reviews of it from other sites.

We were there end of Jan 09 when it was the Chinese New Year and thus all the hotels were either booked of overpriced. Thus had to settle for this one. The prices were reasonable and we got what we paid for... ;-)

Philip the main guy there who is pretty much in charge of everything is a really nice guy.

The rooms are really small but we just needed a place to crash so it was ok. The rooms were not even a bit sound proof. I could hear the guy next door snoring.

Fresh towels and linen everyday and the rooms were very clean. Overall it was OK.

This would be my first choice of a budget hostel. Next time will book in a normal hotel well in advance.

So if you are looking for a budget hostel this is one of the good ones. Though don't expect too much in terms of space and privacy.
