Blue Magic Hostel

People are friendly! And polite！ Clean And Convenient! Recommended

This place is awesome for what you get! About $16 dollars a night for the shared room with private curtains and a lovely common area with hammocks and little swings. There's a kitchen so you can cook, and a cat who loves attention. Filtered water is provided for drinking because the tap is not safe. It also primarily serves scuba divers, which creates a nice feeling of community and means people don't wanna get trashed and quiet hours are respected. Service is excellent and staff are kind. My two nitpicks are that the mattresses weren't the comfiest and warm water in the showers didn't really work, but these didn't bother me at all.

If you like bare basics, this place is for you. Blue magic Rooms: No place to put anything- no place to hang a beach towel or a hat. No place to hang a dish towel even. No coffee table or side table to put down a drink when sitting on the sofa. When I arrived owner told me to let him know what I needed. I came back next day with a list of a few things - large salad bowl, hooks, etc. but all he let me say was salad bowl. I got that next day. Overhead lights in kitchen/liv/din too dim for reading. How about another or brighter bulb? Or standing lamp? Those terraces in the photos? Internal & private. Owners duplex. Very misleading & dishonest in my opinion. There’s a roof deck with a great water view with a few chairs & a bbq grill but it’s up 4 flights. Bottom line Blue Magic not in the Hospitality business. and they are not very hospitable.
