Verified traveller

Decent place to stay outside of the town center. Pretty clean place, a house with a family, not a traditional hostel. Hit and miss whether it will be a party hostel or not, depends on the current guests. 11am check out means leave the property, can not leave your bags there or stay inside, you must leave. Ive traveled the world extensively and never heard that before. Not even from hotels. I personally would stay somewhere else. Breakfast was $8. Extremely expensive in my opinion.
