That’s how this hostel has an amazing warm welcoming family vibe, thanks to the owner, Tharita. She is shining so good energy around, and I met only good people here 🙂!! Bed was quiet spacious and comfortable, with small shelf, power socket, curtain. Everything was clean and quiet by night. You won’t regret if you stay here, and Tharita will take care of you like she is taking care of her roses 🤗. All the best, DK mama, you are a true gem in this world!
