Everything. Cozy place with free coffee and snacks. Free washing machine. Great view on the sea. And the most important: a really warm welcome and the owner, William, really makes you feel like part of the family.
We had an amazing stay here. William is the best host you can think of. Very professional and fast when it comes to booking tours or diving sessions. But also always in for a good talk, good time, party, he really becomes a friend since the 1st day. The rooms are very clean and the place really has an appropriate name « the nest », it is how you feel staying here. I highly recommend this place for every kind of stay.

Cheap stay at a good location with several points of interest at walking distance. Only about 4 or 5 mins drive to Imago. Beds were comfortable, place was clean, and there's a pool!
Modern furnishing and each pod feels very private which is nice. The area immediately outside the hostel doesn’t feel like the most inviting but is perfectly safe, and probably quite insightful. Very central (although not sure that really makes a difference- not huge amounts to do in the city)
Amazing culture, stunning sunsets from the hostel panorama window and very clean! Definitely one of the very best hostels I’ve been in so far. Special thanks to Jenny of the hostel staff for integrating new people into the amazing social culture!
Great location, great food, warm personnel and comfy and clean room. Couldn't have wished for more for that price, we stayed at the dormitory.
Great location, clean, very fast communication, bathroom is on a balcony and it was really great experience. We enjoyed the stay there. Cheap and good. Can recommend it.
Great location 5 min walk from orangutans and sunbears,, nice swimming pool, good that breakfast is included and you can buy all meals at the resort because its the only option for food really. Fine budget option.
The place was in a great location, near night markets and lots of coffee shops and restaurants for during the day. The staff were really helpful, leaving keys in a safe box for us to check in in the early hours. The room was comfortable and had everything we needed - great value for money and would recommend a stay here in KK!
