- I really liked my stay here. Its super central, with nice staff and pleasant hipster vibe. My room was freshly painted, really clean with a good shower and comfy bed. I came from a different place in Ella and this was a clean and bright relief.Stayed in March 2023

Our stay at Magnet was amazing. We booked 1 night and ended up staying there 4 nights. We spended also a lot of time at the lobbie since the view was nice and the Lotus flowers smell so good. Best about Magnet is the stuff, really heartwarming and helpful people. We'll be back there very soon!
