Great place to relax and enjoy. Close to everything. Everyone was very very nice. The pool was clean and warm. They also had daily room cleaning which you don't really find at hostels....Really enjoyed our stay here.

Great place, especially if your into hot babes serving you breakfast and coffee every morning! Super chill and the staff was really helpful. Walking distance to the beach, grocery store, bank and restaurants. I loved the atmosphere and the cat (Mr. Gato). C.f.

Stayed in a very clean double room with private bathroom. Perfect place to chill. Across the main road from the beach and very good restraunts and coffee shops 30 seconds to 2 min away. Grocery store 30 second walk.

4/10 Fair

No limpian la habitación diario. El parqueo es muy pequeño. Permiten que las personas fumen en lugares públicos lo cual es prohibido por ley. Nunca varían el desayuno.

Ambiance jeune et bien situé
On a choisi un hostel pour pouvoir rencontrer des gens et on a été servis ! Ambiance jeune et parfois un peu bruyant mais c'était bien ce à quoi on s'attendait et on a été ravis ! Literie peu confortable mais l'ensemble était chouette
