My friend and I needed to work in the city for the weekend and this place was the perfect overnight stay for us. It was close and affordable and in a secured area. I would stay there again for a short trip.
There were a lot of children around; I don't know their reason for being there, but due to our reason for staying over it wasn't a problem. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone looking to feel secluded or who want privacy.

It was affordable, and for that price you can't really complain about the modest facilities. The place is simple, with no luxury amenities;it's a backpackers bode, with only the basics. The facilities are clean and well kept, the rooms neat and simple. I didn't eat anything there during my stay, so i can't comment on the breakfast which is on offer for a little more money.The place is situated inside a gated community, with much security on the premises,so that was a huge plus. Overally, it's a simple clean place for those on the budget
The staff have a habit of making noise in the mornings,which was pretty irritating when trying to sleep and rest. The rooms are divided by thin boards, so noise easily carries over. The ladies there make quite a raucous, and that was a negative factor for me

The people who work here, treat you like a family and they become one. They make sure that everything’s alright with you and helping you where possible. The bedrooms were nice, clean, cosy and comfortable. There are two bathrooms, one for women and one for men and they’re very clean. The hostel itself is a warm and cosy place, it truely feels like home. You also have a living room with a tv, a nice garden,m and a kitchen. The accommodation is kidsfriendly, and the garden aswell. Is was one of the best parts of the travel—> meeting those people.

Angie was a sweetheart. Always smiling and happy to help. The place is perfect for budget travel. Old but kept clean. Worth a visit more than once.
It's not close to public transportation. Only a train station near by otherwise you use an Uber.
