Malcolm
This hotel has a great location, not right in the craziness of town but close enough to walk. The staff are friendly and helpful, making our stay more comfortable. The rooms are clean and the beds are comfortable. The breakfast is amazing, with a variety of options including pancakes, fresh fruits, cereals, and tea and coffee. It's definitely value for money, with great facilities like a swimming pool, big kitchen with free tea and coffee, and a bar with regular evening activities.
The stale smell in the room due to the air conditioner having to be on at all times. However, other than that, we had a very comfortable stay.

Great location, close to central area and shopping centre. Clean and comfortable private rooms. Helpful and friendly staff. Well-equipped kitchen. Free breakfast with pancakes. Amazing pool area. Beer pong on weekends. Helpful staff member named Yessi.
Felt right at home, nothing to complain about.

This hotel exceeded my expectations in so many ways! the attention to detail was superb. The rooms were equipped with four fluffy pillows and had a private bathroom - a luxury you don't always find in budget accommodations. The air-conditioning was a lifesaver in the hot weather, and the white towels provided in the bathrooms added a touch of luxury.
All was ok.

The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed to cook our own food. The staff was really friendly and helpful, offering us complimentary drinks upon arrival and providing useful information about the city. The location was perfect, close to all the main attractions and within walking distance to the beach. The rooftop pool was a definite highlight, with great views and a relaxing atmosphere.
Our Christmas stay was not as great as we expected. Our room was not very clean and had a musty smell.

The hostel offered clean and spacious common kitchen facilities which were a great advantage. The staff, except for one grumpy guy, were nice and helpful. They even provided a shuttle service to and from the airport, making transportation easy. staying in a private room with a small refrigerator was convenient.
The hostel had some downsides. The Wi-Fi was not free in the room, which was a disappointment.

This hostel offers a separate area with fridges which is a great location for storing food and drinks. The room I stayed in was immaculate and spacious, with a comfortable bed and a great view of the surrounding area. The staff were helpful and the breakfast was top-notch. I appreciated the availability of leisure facilities like a pool table and outdoor seating area.
The shared bathrooms were grubby and the showers were unreliable, with little to no pressure.

The bed was incredibly comfortable, ensuring a good night's sleep. I loved the convenience of having a plug next to every bed, making it easy to charge my devices. The pancakes for breakfast were absolutely delicious, and I appreciated the variety in the free dinner options. The availability of a hairdryer in the bathroom was a nice touch. The staff were friendly and always willing to help. The bathrooms were clean and well-maintained. I was pleased to find filtered water available. The free shuttle service from the airport and to the pier was very convenient. I had a very pleasant stay at Mad Monkey Backpackers Village and would highly recommend it.

Best hostel experience! The breakfast was amazing, with fresh pancakes made right in front of you. The location was perfect, with easy access to attractions. I also loved the friendly and accommodating staff who made my stay even better. the facilities were perfect for my needs.
Disliked the lack of storage space in the room. It felt a bit too basic and lacking in personality.

We had an amazing stay with lovely staff members. The hotel had loads of different people everyday, a pool area to chill out, and a bar for a nice drink with mates. Cleanliness was top-notch with new and clean dorms and bathrooms. The hotel even had two sockets per bed with two USB outlets. Hotel staff were very friendly and helpful, and even provided a free bus service to town or marina at certain hours.
Nothing to be said.

During our recent stay, we had a fantastic experience at Mad Monkey Village. The atmosphere was so relaxing and it offered great value for money. The beds were comfortable, and the breakfast served every morning was absolutely amazing. We particularly enjoyed the well-equipped kitchen, perfect for preparing our own meals. The staff were helpful and professional, always ready to assist with any queries. The social area was a nice place to eat and get some work done. We also loved the daily events and family dinner, which made it easy to meet other travelers. The location, although a bit far from town, was not a major issue for us as the hourly shuttle service was convenient. I would definitely recommend Mad Monkey Village for a pleasant and affordable stay.
