Batwo Stay - For foreigners only

The location is very good. Lots of nice cafes nearby. The self check in process was very straight forward. The breakfast is okay. The hostel is responsive on Booking app.

There was no window for the bedroom and this was not clear in the booking. The walls are not soundproof at all - the door was opening and closing frequently in the night (and beeping each time with the keycard) and you can hear people snoring in different rooms. The bathroom is a wet room. The basement rooms feel very cramped with low ceilings.

Comfortable, has all amenities and free water refill station

The only positives are the great location and that it is a very social hostel where you can meet other travelers.

We booked a room with three beds, but it turned out to be in the basement, which we didn’t know when booking. The basement rooms have no windows, which makes them feel closed in and uncomfortable. It was also very humid, so we had to keep the dehumidifier and AC running all the time — both are quite loud and made it hard to sleep. The ceilings are very low; at 172 cm I could touch them. Probably the upstairs rooms are better. We stayed for three nights and never saw any staff, so if you need help there is no one around. The breakfast is not worth it — you have to make it yourself in the kitchen, and the options are very limited.
