BUG review
This hostel is not as clean as the other one in town, but it’s not dirty either, and the facilities are similar; including a kitchen, TV, laundry, pool table, internet access and a swimming pool. Not many travellers stay here as it if often full of mine workers who stay long term, which means that many backpackers feel that it doesn’t really have a welcoming atmosphere . However it is OK if you just want a bed for the night.

The hostel is pretty neat and tiny, but the people make the atmosphere!!!Full of older men who work hard and are ready for a laugh. The people and the place are very layed back and the place is almost always empty because everyone is out and about.The owner and manager is lovely and always available on the phone. The place is truely an experience. And i had the best time there.
