    The pool area photo is deceiving. That photo is new, it’s much older.

    We had a misunderstanding, but the front desk manager made sure I was compensated and handled everything with brilliance.

    Free bike to borrow, necessary because it's a little bit off, I loved the welcome drinks! 😁

    Nice hostel with spacious room and comfy bed Nice rooftop area with a good view in the center Good location not in the center (which is a plus for me) The free shuttles + bicycles are an absolute plus, Whatsapp group makes it easy to find people for tours

    There’s no common kitchen to prepare your own stuff simple things like tea and coffee.

    The fully operational lift to assist with luggage. Comfortable beds. Spacious bathroom and toilet. Daily activities including free rides to certain places.

    The only thing that would make me consider about staying here again was that there’s no kitchen. I was so used to staying in a dorm around the world and making my own meal that it’s a minus point to a hostel with no kitchen.

    Comfy double-bed sized bunk bed in the dorm, clean toilet and showers. The room was small but acceptable for such a low price. Loved their staff! So friendly and helpful.

    Not so much bt if common bathroom can be a little clean then it would really add up.

    I had a great stay at this hostel in Da Nang! The atmosphere was really friendly, and the staff made me feel welcome from the moment I arrived. Special thanks to Kiew( I forgot her name bt she is really friendly nd cute and there are few other name as well bt now i only remember their smiling face 😀)—they all were super kind, helpful, and always had a smile on her face. Kiew nd I had really good conversations just in few minutes thats make me feel welcome nd positive energy really added to the experience. The facilities were clean and well-maintained, with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The location was okay—not right in the center, but still easy to get around and explore the city. Overall, a really nice place to stay if you’re looking for a relaxed and friendly environment. I’d definitely come back!

    The bar was a bit expensive! The swimming pool is not.vig enough to swim in and definitely not as nice as the picture makes it look

    Lovely staff, clean and spacious rooms, a bar on the roof terrace, a cupboard to lock away your things, shampoo and soap in the bathroom, lots of organized tours and events in the evening happening in the bar

    A vibrant stay with good vibes and comfort, but in need of more cleaning and encouraged guest etiquette.

    The guests are very young. As such, it seems as though there should be more maintenance and cleaning. Every-time i went to the bathroom, someone’s belongings were there. Maybe they forgot them, maybe they left them on purpose. But it’s not fun to see someone’s undergarments hanging on the shower, or shoes outside of the bathroom. There should also be quiet hours communicated to the guests.

    Th hostel has a lot of potential. I love the rooftop vibe, the music, and the activities are thoughtful. The beds are also very comfortable, and it’s kind of them to provide new towels everyday.

    No lights nearby bed, bathrooms weren’t clean (one had a roof that leaked the whole time so was always damp) pool is not at all how it looks on pictures, bar closed early.

    Beds were big and comfy in my room, bar upstairs was nice, could hire push bike for free

    Bathrooms could do with a major clean, and area around a little iffy but not unsafe

    It was clean beds, bathroom was a bit dodgy with a leaking ceiling. The hostel has good activities and free buses to major things and really helped with booking tours. Location is about 10 mins walk to the beach, that was lovely, although area around it is a bit naff. Lovely place to meet other travellers overall

    Unfortunately I had a couple nights of disturbed sleep as people came in around 2-3am and turned all the lights on. There was also construction work going on during the day so was hard to rest after a long journey. I appreciate this was not the hostels fault, especially as construction works can be essential.

    The property was close to the beach so was easy to walk to with a few food places around to eat at. It was a good hostel if you liked socialising, they offer a free welcome drink and organise evening activities. The rooms and bathrooms were cleaned each day. The rooftop is nice and the food they provided was cheap and pretty good. The staff were all helpful and friendly.

    there is no plug for the hairdryer in the bathroom and i didn’t want to use it in the bedroom because my roommates could be sleeping so sometimes i had to not dry it

    you get so much for what you pay that i even question how they make money. Free towels, a drink every day, free grabs, a nice rooftop and pool.. very good! not a party hostel but definitely social

    Could have done with lights in the beds, and a little out of the way but they do have a shuttle.

    Comfy beds, really big. The welcome drink and happy hours were a nice touch. The nightly activities helped socialise with other guests.

    My stay at this hostel in Da Nang was pretty average. The bed was big and comfortable, and having a locker with a key was convenient. However, the room felt quite small and cramped—my upper dorm bed was so close to the next one that even a quiet call was disruptive. There was no separate light for the upper bunks, and the bathroom was smaller than expected. I had assumed a 4-bed dorm would have a private bathroom, but it didn’t. The shower gel was also empty. Additionally, the tour they offered was slightly overpriced and not very well-organized. Overall, it was okay but could have been better for the price.
