CHAMELEON BACKPACKERS & LODGE

I stayed for 1 night at the hostel. The included breakfast was good, the room clean.
So what happened is that I was sleeping in an empty 6 bed dorm (it was only me, no other persons stuff was there and I didn’t see anyone the whole day after my arrival + at the reception no one told me I had another roommate and even less that it was a man) when suddenly at midnight a random guy came into my room. I got very scared, put my flashlight on and asked who he was ( I could barely see, only his silhouette) No answer, he just pulled his shirt off and jumped into a bed. As a young women travelling alone I was freaked out and decided that I could not sleep alone with that strange guy in the same room. So I went out and looked for someone who could help me. Luckily a guy came and put me in another room.
I told the women at the reception what happened the next day and I really did not like her attitude. She actually said it was my fault because I did not know what I booked for. what? I don’t think it is normal to have some stranger coming into your room at midnight and on top of that that no one told me I had a room mate. I have been in other hostels and they always warned me in case I would have a dorm with a lot or only 1 other guy so I could decide if I wanted to change or not. It is the hostels responsibility to warn people, especially women, in such cases(especially if they don’t have girls rooms!) I would have had 0 problem with 3 girls and 2 guys in that room but 1 guy, coming in at midnight with no stuff no nothing not even saying hello when I ask him who he is,sorry this is absolutely unacceptable. And then blame me, even though she could see I kinda got traumatised. I would not recommend it for solo women, they don’t take you seriously… I was disappointed and that’s because I left earlier than planned. Just didn’t feel safe there.

Well maintained and spacious hostel.
The staff and people staying there are all very friendly!

The kitchen and the outdoor lounge around the pool are great.

Very nice backpackers hostel. We did get a double bedroom with view on the pool. We had a late flight out and it was no problem to store luggage and use all the facilities after we checked out.
Apologies for forgetting to pay the bar bill and that you had to track me down at the airport to get it settled.
