Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
It was a convenient place within a walking distance of the train station to catch a train the next day, and also within a walking distance from the vibrant port area. The room was convenient, but the A/C did not work nor could be fixed (the staff was helpless in this regard), so me and my family had a sleepless hot night. We opened the windows to try and cool down the room a bit, but there was street noise until 4am. In addition, the area of this hostel is dirty and not attractive. The only things we liked was the good vibe at this place, the nice interior court yard with tables and benches, and the breakfast options that were good and cheap.

Nice ho(s)tel hidden in the centre of town.

The hostel is pretty nice: rooms seemed clean and facilities were nice. However, I had to get a low score for how I was treated a check-in. Receptionist was rude and unwelcoming. Also the terrace was closed with no explanations.

I asked direction several times but they never provided that which tells they don't care for guest inquiry. It was an okay place to stay since people kept partying and shouting here until almost midnight. I complained to a man who was in the office and he did not care much that indicated he did not pay attention to guest rights. We also found a lady official who proved helpful.

room doors do not have slow close so people constantly slam them at all hours of the night. Room lockers for valuables do not fit a standard carry on rolling bag so your valuables will not be secure even if you have a lock. Finally, the cleaning staff were extremely rude and condescending upon checking in. Area is also not very nice and very loud, but can get to Old Port close by walking.

Reception staff, Thhais, is very helpful!

Hostels are hostels which you do not usually expect a lot for comfort and luxury. Cleanness and safety are very important and The People has achieved those. The location is also perfect for going around the city and there is plenty space for relaxation, too.
