Reviews of Padang Hostel

There was little to no staff oversight of the property. The floor of the 6-bed mixed dorm was extremely dirty, and the bathrooms were not cleaned for days, with no toilet paper. There was no security on the property, and people arrived at all hours of the night. Two people arrived in our room in the middle of the night and took the mattresses off the top bunk and put them on the floor for multiple days. The staff did nothing to fix the situation. We witnessed the cleaning staff take dirty sheets off of the ground and make the bed with them for a new guest. Overall, my friend and I were very disappointed in the management of the property.

A big space, it's easy to find somewhere peaceful in the garden. Very good location, easy to go everywhere, beach, supermarket, downtown. Although they clean the kitchen almost everyday, it could be better.

This hostel has amazing potential, a huge green space right above the heart of Pipa (between the center and Praia do Amor) with three houses. The breakfast was also phenomenal. You can't beat Padang for the value.

It lacks some general care to make the beds better (you wake up feeling the wooden slats) and improve the overall cleanliness. Nonetheless, it's on par with the other hostels in Pipa, and I enjoyed my two nights there.

Nice place to hang out with people, amazing staff and good breakfast. Amazing value for money.

The bad in the dorms room wasn't so comfortable.

The private room was large and the air-conditioning worked well.

Our shower was broken and did not work at all, I asked for help but no one came, so we had to use the public showers which were not very clean. The water only worked intermittently, which apparently was a city problem but we had stayed elsewhere prior and this didn’t occur. The sheet was too small for the mattress so it didn’t stay on while you slept and you were on the exposed and dirty mattress. The sheets were also very scratchy and uncomfortable. The downstairs neighbour came to our door repeatedly accusing us of being too loud, when we were simply walking across the room, as there was no soundproofing. The hostel also had a bit of an odd vibe and the main areas were all quite dirty.

super nice confy stay, loved everyhting ;)

everything is great really, garden and enough space to enjoy ! loved it !

Amazing place

There was no breakfast included.

The staff was very cool and supportive. The room was very clean.

The bed mattress could be of better quality.

Amazing hostel with perfect location. The private rooms were very spacious and super clean. The manager was just amazing and she always went over the top to make my stay as pleasant as possible. Wifi was also exceptionally good, video meetings for work were mostly no problem.

Unfortunately I was during low season there, so there wasn't really an atmosphere, but that's obviously not the fault of the hostel. More English speaking volunteers would be great too.

Really good location good value and great friendly volunteer staff and really good value prices and loads of good communal spaces to hang out or chill

The private got pretty hot even with a fan some nights but not unbearable
