My favorite things are the tables, chairs, and plants in the yard, as well as warm lighting tones. Every night, scattered friends gather to chat, and the living environment is also very comfortable. If I have the opportunity to come here again next time, I will continue to choose this hotel.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
