Here is a quick guide to help you have a great time during your stay with us. Please also see the hostel terms and conditions. Cheers! :)

o    We operate on a one-person-per-bed in the private dorm rooms policy. Please be considerate of other guests and do not bring extra people back to the rooms. Violators will be fined.

o    Check-in time: Your room will be ready at 2 pm.

o    Check-out time is 12 NN. You may check out from 8am-12nn, but if you wish to check out earlier, please let us know in advance.
