    Backpackers at its best! Highly recommended! Vinthi gave us a friendly welcome and provided us with everything we could wish for. Great host! The staff in and around the house are very friendly and helpful and give the impression that they enjoy their job here. Our room number 4 was spacious, with a large shower in it, our own small fridge, microwave, kettle, dishes etc. Great! Comfortable beds. Everything was very clean and tidy and beautiful. WiFi good everywhere. Common areas like kitchen and dining room first class, everything there, really everything. And clean and plenty of space. Unfortunately we were only here for 2 nights. It is a place to stay longer.

    I stayed at the backpackers lodge twice and was met with incredible hospitality from Vinthi and the staff. The kitchen was well equipped and could be used whenever, very clean rooms and shower and the beds were very comfortable. Vinthi was very sweet and was very kind to guide you to nice things to do, and help where needed. Will definitely come back and would recommend!

    I had a very personable and generous experience with Nothando and the owner Vinthi. Every guest was given care and attention with grace and ease, and there was a consistent offer of being shared with, be it food, health remedies, etc. Full of good recommendations of what to do and how best to do it.
