The room we were staying in qas so comfortable. It was pitch black at night so we had a fantastic sleep. The Air Con was brilliant. Stephanie, the owner, was so so friendly and helpful and really got us out of a little hole we were in. She didn't have to but went above and beyond to be as helpful as she could be. So very grateful for this. We will pass through again in a few months and will definitely stay again as the hostel was perfect. All that you want in a hostel.

Very clean, good location, very comfortable rooms if you get the room with the balcony or the queen room, which has a fridge and a kitchenette (me and my friend got one each). All utilities work well. They stored our luggage for several hours after check-out. All in all a very good experience when we booked these rooms and had the fridge and the private balcony between us.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Super friendly hostel in great location. Very close to a Rana Dorada craft beer joint and a cheap yet tasty pizza shop. Very near the front, if you want to walk/jog/run along the boardwalk.
