Great vibes ##### Krish Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Michelleanne Dec 30, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great location on the lake. Beds in dorm with privacy curtain were comfy. Wish there was more space to relax outside the dorm rooms - it’s either the kitchen/dining room or the upstairs room, which doesn’t have enough couches for people to sit. Bathrooms were ok - should be more shelving or something for people to put their toiletries on as the 3 sinks in the bathroom hall were frequently occupied, so people kept having to leave because they couldn’t use the sinks. Otherwise good for maximum 2 night stay. ##### Michelleanne Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Kevin Nov 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Better amenities in the room ##### Kevin Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Victor Oct 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Nice clean and beautiful view ##### Victor Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lauren Jul 30, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities So clean, great facilities, amazing views of the lake and quiet ##### Lauren Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Eming Jun 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Friendliness of check in staff, well kept property, good heating and fantastic location ##### Eming Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Goh Jul 9, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Good location and easy parking, also a good common kitchen and comfortable beds and warm toilet to use during winter. ##### Goh Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Yi Wan Sep 25, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Clean rooms and comfortable stay. There was a large group of students staying the same night and as a result there were not enough seats to eat dinner. Even the second floor lounge area was full and some had to sit on the ground to eat. ##### Yi Wan Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### A Oct 10, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This hostel is very close to the InterCity bus stop. The receptionist gave me some good information about where to see the stars at night. You’ll need your own padlock because the lockers in the dorm don’t have locks. ##### A Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lakshmi Mar 24, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Best place to stay for quiet time and lake view. ##### Lakshmi Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jasmeen Jul 29, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great experience at Haka house.
