This is a hostel. There are 3 floors. 3 rooms per floor and 1 restroom with a shower per floor.

If you choose to stay here remember to turn on the power to the restroom(the light switch is outside of the restroom) if you want decent shower pressure and sink pressure. The bidet sprayer pressure is not good so you will need to find a way to clean there better or sit and wait forever for it to clean.

It is about 27 minutes walking distance from the mall 10 minutes by car. 40 minutes walking distance to hiking trail 10 minutes by car. Big plus is that it is roughly 20 minutes from the airport. Huge negative is that it is away from alot of activities unless you call the mall an activity.

Could not find the property, clearly this has been a problem for others, even followed the hotels guidance of putting in another building in sat nav, the taxi driver could not find also, ending up paying for a hotel that i could find.
