Es un hostel muy lindo y con mucha buena onda. Tiene muy buena ubicación al estar a metros de la playa y tener supermercados cerca. Los chicos del hostel son unos genios y me ayudaron con todo. El lugar sienpre está limpio y bien cuidado. Además buena conexión a Internet en todo el hostel, lo que te permite trabajar remoto sin problemas. Recomendado 100%

"Amazing place for solo travelers, one of the best hostels I've been too"

10.0

Amazing place to meet fellow travelers. I extended my stay because I liked it so much. The staff is really friendly and helpfull, the atmosphere is great and you can spot animals without leaving the place. everything you need (amazing beach, supermarket, laundry surf shop) is within 2 minutes walking. I've been traveling for over a year in total, and this is definitly one of the best hostels I've been to!

I whished I could have stayed longer.

"Süßes Hostel nahe am Strand"

9.0

Sehr süß angelegtes Hostel, etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Die Outdoor Küche ist sehr gut ausgestattet, der Pool wird täglich gereinigt, hat uns wirklich gut gefallen.

Die Zimmer sind sehr hellhörig. Bzgl. der Weiterreise konnte uns leider wenig weitergeholfen werden, das wäre für ein Backpacker Hostel noch wünschenswert.

La cocina es amplia y tiene muchas cosas para usar, la heladera estaba limpia, la piscina también, los voluntarios en constante movimiento para dar una mano en lo que necesites, como así para mantener el lugar en condiciones. Muy importante que el internet funcionaba muy bien, pude trabajar sin problemas con buena conexión. Completamente recomendado.

Nada, todo bien.

"Surfer's Paradise"

10.0

Everything about this place was far beyond awesome, and believe me, I am not someone who is easily satisfied. My room was great, the location was perfect. The staff was so kind and careful to assist in every way. The unbelievable part was the price. The atmosphere was so friendly that the guests all seemed stoked on the great vibes. The surf was perfect, everything you could want was on the corner and the beach was right down the road, so close that this 65 year old surfer carried his longboard back and forth to the water with ease. If there was a picture in the dictionary for "hidden gem" dude this is it. Pura Vida Baby!!!

ARE YOU KIDDING ME, NFW!
