We only stayed one night to do a biobay tour and this was the perfect location. The bunk beds were fun and although i was hesitant at first about the shared bathrooms, it worked out totally fine. Rooms had a/c and we slept well! Communication with the host was via text and very helpful and convenient. Would definitely stay here again!

A super helpful staff that picks up the phone and helps out for a self check in hotel. Booked day of, had to change reservation like 3 times, and they helped me through it all. Room was super easy to get into, directions were smooth and simple, and the area was perfect. Right next to one of the most active parts of town, and a 8 minute walk from the Bio Bay tours. Be aware, there's no microwave in the room. AC worked amazing. Showers hot water lasted well, just don't blast it.

Nice stay

This is a no frills, self check-in property. Communications through text messages were prompt and helpful. Should have a coffee brewer in the room or the premises since there is only one place for breakfast in the area which opens at 7am. A beverage and snacks vending machine would also be welcome, as well as an ice machine.

Shared bathroom

The weather was beautiful. Great location. Just be prepared to share bathrooms with no hand soap in any of them. And using the bathroom someone was on the roof with a leaf blower and blow water and leafs all over me when I was using the bathroom.
