Guests frequently highlight the convenience of being within walking distance to the night market and ferry terminal, making it a solid choice for backpackers. The breakfast provided is noted as being generous and high-quality, though some guests mention limited options for vegans. While the beds are described as comfortable, some reviewers have noted that the Wi-Fi can be slow and that bathroom facilities could use improvements, such as the addition of toilet seats. Overall, it is considered a fair value for the price, provided travelers manage their own transport arrangements.
