Perfectly located on the outskirts of Tamel, Birds Nest Hostel offers a chill, but central experience. Never have I seen the term Deluxe been misused so hard, but it does not really matters, and the room gives you exactly what you pay for! In the end it do not really matter, becasue the strength of this hostel lay in its common areas and the Local boys that frequens to the secret rooftop who offers good conversations and an amazing sunset! Food is also pretty good here.
