A welcome addition, this American-run hostelry has 25 rooms in two buildings spread over a large grassy tract of land backed by a stream. Two dormitories have 12 beds each; the one with air-conditioning costs US$22.50. Larger doubles such as No 22 (US$88) include a separate kitchen, though there's a large common kitchen and outdoor barbecue area.
Along with a pool and Jacuzzi (overlooked by a Buddha statue, of course), there's a large games room with ping-pong and pool tables, a laundry room (US$5 per load) and bikes to rent for US$10 a day.
