This women-only hostel is exceptionally amazing! Very clean, nice, and stylish. It has a really well-equipped kitchen, a make-up space, jacuzzi. There is a nice cozy shared area and the dorms are cute. Bunk beds have curtains and there is an AC on 24/7. The staff were nice and the fellow travellers as well.
