I booked a single private but when I arrived they did not have the room available so I ended up in a dorm. There was mold on the ceiling. The following day I was moved to Huauki 2 a few blocks away to the type of room I was expecting and it was cleaner. I wish minihostels would have better communication with the hostel regarding what was actually available. I would stay at Huauki 2 again, but probably not at the original Huauki. The staff was friendly and helpful especially the second day.
