It was nice and quiet. The location was good. Our room (dorm for 8pax) was spacious. Lights and sockets for charging in each bed. Sufficient water in showers. Clean and well maintained. Tissue paper, shower gel and shampoo are always refilled. Separate toilets and showers.
Common/shared bathroom. With the many dorm rooms on the upper floor, there were only 2 showers and 2 toilets. We heard they were fully booked during our stay, so you have to wait to have a shower. There were a total of 16pax for our group alone. There could have been more in the upper floor so that we don't waste time waiting for others to finish.
Also, our ladies dorm was opposite the men's dorm with glass windows, we can see the men from our room through those windows, since there was no curtain, so they can surely see us from their room, too.
Airconditioning was slightly insufficient, so we had to request for an electric fan to keep the room cool. Aircon was dripping a bit during our last night, person sleeping on the upper bunk got some clothes wet.
Only 1 pillow per bed.

I only stayed here for one night because it is close to the airport. Unfortunately, my experience was very disappointing.
The air conditioning was set extremely cold, almost like a refrigerator and I couldn’t adjust it to a warmer temperature. Because of this, the room was uncomfortably cold throughout the night. On top of that, the building is very noisy. I could clearly hear people walking on the floor above, and it was quite disturbing.
I also had a roommate who made a lot of noise very early in the morning while packing. There are supposed to be quiet hours, but these were not respected. I think it’s important that staff clearly emphasize the quiet hours during check-in to avoid this kind of situation.
Additionally, the bedding was inadequate. The blanket was extremely thin, more like a sheet and provided no warmth at all. Even wearing my sweater wasn’t enough to stay warm.
Overall, I had a very cold and unpleasant night.
