The common areas and bathrooms were very clean, and there was a locker right next to the bed where you could use a lock. While it wasn't in a super central area, it was very quiet and walking distance to a lot of stuff which was convenient. The front desk staff were also very friendly and kind. I would definitely recommend staying here if you are okay with a hostel.

Overall great stay and worth the price.

Great stay! The beds were comfy and with curtains, nice privacy for the bunk. Cleaning staff was a bit loud while clearing out a couple bunks at 8am, while guests were still sleeping so that was a bit annoying. Also took over 30 minutes just to check in and put my stuff down (problems with the room key, then the cabinet key. In the end they had to change my room). But the staff is really friendly and helpful. Awesome that they offer free water, good coffee, and a little breakfast.

The Common Hostel was excellent. Staff was super friendly. The common areas is great for meeting fellow travelers. The breakfast is basic but gets the job done. I booked the private room and it’s small but has all you need. Only thing is there’s no step to separate the shower from rest of the bathroom so water gets over easily. But overall it was a pleasant stay and would definitely come back. It’s on the quieter side of the old city so it’s a bit of a walk/ride to the markets and bars but overall a good time

Slightly above average

Let's start with the good. Hostel staffs were great. Design is simple yet classy. Appreciate the unlimited drinking water supply. The bad. The unlimited drinking water supply also means unlimited supply of plastic bottles, which equals to unnecessary wastage. The wooden floor creates too much noise each time someone walks on it, which means I kept hearing wooden floor creaking the entire day. A disturbance of peace to say the least. That said, I would still recommend this place. I just wished some extra thought have gone into this during construction.

Okay for the price

The location was good and staff were very nice/helpful. The morning breakfast was so so, mosquitos were a bit bothersome and the bed in private room was not very comfortable but for the price, you can't complain to much. If you are on a budget, i would recomend it.
