I love the campy vibes of the property and all the various accommodations
It can get pretty moist and humid which can cause issues with electronics

Lovely property lots of common area. Chill vibe versus party. Activities each week plus yoga. AC room was a plus, clean with great kitchen
There are quite a bit of mosquitos so bring bug spray. 10% additional payment by card or 5% via PayPal

It says “Home Away from Home” at the door, and it truly is! Love all the details of this place, including a yoga space and outdoor gym. They rent out bicycles as well with guest rates. Excellent Wi-Fi even for those who work online. Definitely recommended :)
Our room could have a desk and chair, but overall, it worked out for us as there were communal spaces.

The nice thing is that they have yoga class every day (extra cost)
The dorm without aircon is very noisy because it’s on the main road without window. The beds are also very uncomfortable. The dorm with AC is ok. You need to walk a bit or rent a bike to go to the center so better one hostel in the center.
