Probably the cleanest and calmest hostel that I have been to :) The name is accurate, here you really can sleep (confortable bed & nice pillows+curtains on every bed). Showers have shower gel and there is water, coffee, tea and cookies available in the kitchen/lobby. No fridge nor cooking facilities but there are loads of cheap places to eat nearby. Very recommended!

We really enjoyed our stay here. The location was perfect—only a 5-10 minute walk to Jonker Street and Dutch Square and just around the corner from some nice restaurants. Wi-fi worked perfectly, the accommodation was super clean, and the communication was easy between the owner/manager. There are also hot water showers and filtered water, which are much appreciated! We didn't need it, but a kitchenette is available for use and a small, nice communal area with a table and couch.

Location is good, very near to town but not exactly in town, so got to skip the traffic and parking wont be a problem. Check in and out process were smooth. The room is good, bathroom is excellent. Very worth it. Water dispenser is provided which is good.

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.

    Good vibe in the lobby with people greeting me, offering snacks, etc. Comfy, spacious sleeping pod and secure locker provided. I was stranded at the hostel by the weather after checking out and the staff helped me try to get a taxi (very busy with chinese new year) and made me feel really welcome to hang out there until the storm had passed. Great location too- I felt safe walking home late at night alone.
