7.0

hostal humilde pero apañado. por la mañana te entra desayuno que son pancakes y café con leche y la zona en la que está es tranquila y está llena de comercios.

al ser un hostal en el que viaja gente joven se escucha gente hablar por la noche en la terraza pero sobre las 12am se callaban.

"So nice stay, will be back!"

10.0

Was beyond my expectations, very nice and comfortable, simple but nice included breakfast definitely recommended!

Suggest to keep more clean the bathrooms, and the fridges, otherwise think the bedrooms and common areas were fairly clean

"Very Good"

7.0

Good location, WiFi worked really well, the common area has so really comfy couches. Decent breakfast for the price although sometimes there is nothing left even though breakfast is supposed to run for another 30 minutes.

As many other have pointed out there is a shortage of bathrooms and showers, which is aggravated by the fact that sometimes there wasn't any toilet paper in the bathroom. The pillows were so small and flat, you could hardly call them pillows anymore. Laundry was $8, which is a fair price, however from the dryer they must have shoved my still a little damp laundry into a plastic bag causing it to be sooo badly wrinkled the next day. The room smelled so badly of marijuana during my entire 4 night stay.

"Sehr gutes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis mit kleinen Abstrichen"

8.0

Insgesamt ein sehr gutes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis. Alles war weitgehend sauber und die Unterkunft ist gut ausgestattet. Besonders positiv hervorzuheben ist die Küche, die alles bietet, was man zum Kochen braucht. Die Atmosphäre ist entspannt und angenehm. Die Schlafplätze sind durch Vorhänge gut abgeschirmt, was für etwas Privatsphäre sorgt. Außerdem gibt es an den Betten Steckdosen, ein Licht und Schließfächer – sehr praktisch. Auch der Pool und der Wasserspender sind ein echtes Plus.

Leider muss ich jedoch zwei Punkte abziehen: In der zweiten Etage gibt es nur eine einzige Dusche für sehr viele Gäste, wodurch es teilweise zu längeren Wartezeiten kommt. Das ist etwas unpraktisch und könnte verbessert werden

8.0

Schönes kleines Hostel mit entspanntem social Vibe. Nette Mitarbeiter und Volunteers. Betten bequem, ruhig und gute Crowd. Um Kritik anderer bzgl fehlender Duschen und Toiletten aufzugreifen: Ich war im Bocas Dorm, das hatte zwei Badezimmer und eines davon war immer frei.

An sich fand ich die im Bett angebrachten Spinde inkl Strom super. Nur leider sind sie etwas ungünstig angebracht. Ich haben mir beim umdrehen nachts mehrfach das knie angeschlagen.

Posto molto carino che ha un potenziale maggiore che non viene sfruttato

La totale assenza di proposte per tour, gite o conoscenza della cultura della città! Anche chiedendo per mia esperienza professionale non c’è stata nessuna proposta né tantomeno interesse Dello staff devo bocciare totalmente l’unica persona che io ho sempre visto (eccetto il ragazzo biondo ma che ho solo incontrato di notte!)
