Green Hill Boutique Hotel

This hostel is perfect for a time to quieten down and recover from the hustle and heat of Labuan Bajo. It’s right on the Main Street so super easy to browse dive shops and tour packages. It’s attached to a restaurant that opens early so you can get your coffee fix and the staff there are also helpful. The standout of this place is just how clean and tidy the dorms are. Seriously the housekeeping is done by one or two guys only but it’s the cleanest hostel I’ve stayed in. The bathroom and toilets are always clean. The sink is tidy and never gross. They provide shampoo and soap in the rain shower bathroom. Though there are only two bathrooms and two toilets somehow it never feels crowded or dirty, I guess everyone here is respectful of the place. There are total of 12 guests in the hostel dorms. There’s a nice common table and benches for mingling and resting. You can also bring your own meals back to eat at the table comfortably. They provide water refill, cups and plates freely for your use. Also love that there is a strong ceiling fan to ventilate the whole common area. The dorm rooms are also tidy, comfy and felt like home. Certainly a good place to recharge and rest quietly. The room had some good points like a covered mini trash bin, and also a standing lamp with soft light. The lockers were big. The only suggestion I can give is to install some hooks to hang clothes inside each bunk bed. Can also provide two or three more clothes rack outdoors to hang clothes to dry. They provided one and that was nice. Love the outdoor sofa space which they cleaned , dusted and sunned everyday. I saw the staff use a power jet pressure washer to wash the floor outdoors - no wonder it always felt so clean. I felt no sand at all and my feet were clean all the time indoors. That made a big part making it feel like home. No lizard droppings around. One suggestion also is to have some sort of mosquito repellent machine or light installed outside to ward off mosquitos from entering. And perhaps also a first aid box at the common area where one can help oneself to mosquito repellent. Putting a bathroom mat at the bathroom would be good too. The staff at reception is also very friendly and professional. Helpful and always open to help. Polite and well trained. No arrogance unlike at some hostels. I really had a good restful time here. In fact, it’s a place I would be willing to return again to get rest. Home away from home.

The location is near the sea port. Expect some loud honks from some ships in the morning. Great to help you wake up. I stay in their dormitory room. The bed is connected to each other, so if someone moves, you can feel it. The room gives you your own locker. So you can store your valuable things more safer. The staff is friendly. Located in a prime location.
