Nice double and twin rooms, good airco, night staff was very nice but the daytime lady wasn't. We booked a double room for three nights but somehow they messed up and we could only get two... When we asked why or how this was possible she blamed the night staff and she wasn't very helpful or friendly to us. We... More

Ok place for a cheap stay. Rums very small, but very tidy, they won't aloud you to walk around in the hostel with your shoes on, which is great! rRums walls very quite thin, so each time your neighbor will come home - you will hear it. Nice lounge room with tv, sofa, internet place and small kitchen with tea... More

The hostel itself is average in quality. Private rooms with shared bathrooms and air con, as well as a dorm unit if you are looking to stay on the cheap. If you book a private room then I suggest getting one with a double bed rather than two twins. The double bed rooms have real blankets on the bed, however... More

We stayed for four nights at Explorers and would recommend it! Typically we like private rooms with own bathroom, but the facilities here are very nice--toilets are plentiful and the showers are spacious and clean. The whole guesthouse is well-decorated and maintained--wi-fi is only in the lobby and there is a room on the third floor with couches and DVDs... More

We spent one night in this guesthouse. The guesthouse is nicely decorated and has a roof top terrace. The guesthouse has private rooms (doubles and singles) as well as dorms, but only shared bathrooms (which are clean). We stayed in a double room with one queen sized bed and AC. Our room had no shelves and wardrobe. Breakfast (toast with... More

Thanks first to the staff members who made our experience such a good one, from our first query via Facebook to the warm reception to the wake up call to check out. A lot of thought has gone into Explorers and as a result it is a very comfortable, very easy and very stayable. It had been a while since... More

Me and my friend are two backpackers who have chosen to sometimes pay a little bit extra for our accommodation cause we value a good night sleep. This was a very nice place we really liked it and the location was really good, easy to just go to the LRT and go whereever you want. If you like walking there's... More
