8.4 Very Good Based on 494 reviews
Editor's Pick

"Toast, jam, and fruit comprise the daily breakfast, served alongside all-day complimentary tea and coffee. Traditional colonial architecture defines the interior, with shared showers kept clean. Squarely aimed at backpackers, much less at guests needing natural light."
