This budget hostel is good for those solo travellers. The place is clean and vintage. Not as fancy as others but good enough for what I paid for. The AC is cold and there is a hot and cold shower too. Close to shops to eat and go around the River of Lights. A quiet place to relax and sleep after a long walk. The wifi is reliable too. Not for the fussy travellers.

Horrible bed. Mattress is so thin that it is practically nonextistent. I can feel that I was sleeping on the spring. One of the metal spring siral actually poke through the mattress. Next morning waking up with stiff neck and back pain.
Also take note that the cheaper room rate does not come with air conditioning even though it was advertised as "air-conditioner" and an air-conditioner remote control was issued. I ended up having to pay extra to change to another room with air conditioning. The total amount was therefore more costly than other advertised hotels that have better location and decent facilities.

Location is A1,
The lone staff seems overworked when multiple checkins occur. The other non-staff older chinese man on site was rude, uninformed, had no information or phone numbers and had no role except taking up space and being antaganistic as far as I can determine.
It would be great to have available boiled water.
Very very basic, but great location!

The checkin location is at the map location, and the hotel is a short walk nearby. It's a cheap place and you'll get what you pay for. Thin windows and walls, so earplugs are nice.
