The cleanliness wasn’t there at all and we got bit by bedbugs. Place is also a little further in from rest of the town. Tons of mosquitos too. Although the hosts were really nice and we got to play with a tiny kitty!!

Amazing staff, amazing volunteers. People are super friendly. The kitchen is well equipped for regular cooking and it is only 5 minutes drive to town (or 10 minutes bike ride). Highly recommended
