Très coloré comme établissement. Très propre même dans les dortoirs de 8 personnes. Les voyageurs sont respectueux. donc il est bien pour dormir avec le décalage horaire et prendre le rythme du pays. A l’hôtel,Il y a resto-bar pour petit-dej, dej et dîner $, sur place avec boissons alcoolisées. Pas de cuisinette pour préparer des repas mais il y a frigo, micro-ondes pour le nécessaire .
