"Great social hostel with the best location"

8.0

Unbeatable location on the lake and close to any restaurant and the main square. Nice activities every day.

There is no restriction on outside guests. This can be fun for the evening activities but during the day the lake decks can get pretty busy and as a guest I found it hard to use them.

Alquilamos con cancelación gratuita, y a pesar de ello, nos cobraron indebidamente. Nos cansamos de reclamarles. No respondieron llamadas ni mensajes. Pésima atención.

"Good location but question value for money."

7.0

Pontoon was lovely with access to the stunning lake and great activities. Location was good. Empanadas were tasty.

Noisy, trips at 6am every day meant that you heard people chatting and arriving for trips each morning. Bed was incredibly hard and pillows uncomfortable. Small room, no bedside tables or bedside lights. Broken glass pane in bathroom meant that next door property could see in as well as mosquitos come in. Limited breakfast choice and no drink included - it was too large and you were unable to choose say, a simple fruit salad. Felt bad wasting food.

"Sehr schön, jedoch etwas teuer für das was man am Ende bekommt"

7.0

Die Lage des Hostels ist wirklich unschlagbar mit eigenem Steg. Die Mitarbeiter waren sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit und auch die Aktivitäten waren sehr toll. Die Aussicht aus den Zimmern war wunderschön. Das Essen im eigenen Beachclub war gut.

Wir hatten ein privates Zimmer und leider hat das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis für uns nicht ganz gestimmt. Es hat im Zimmer und vorallem im Bad leider sehr komisch gerochen, was auf Dauer sehr störend war. Die Toilette war undicht und es lief Wasser raus. Außerdem hatten wir das Gefühl, dass der Raum schimmelig war. Leider war es auch ziemlich laut. Es ist sehr cool, dass es immer eine Party mittwochs gibt. Leider ist es auch in den Zimmern so als wäre man direkt auf der Tanzfläche. Da wir am nächsten Tag früh rausmussten konnten wir kein Auge zumachen. Generell gab es keine Isolierung und es war sehr laut, da die Musik immer bis 0 Uhr lief auch wenn nicht viel los ist.

"Un sueño despertarse cada día viendo la laguna."

10.0

El hostel es una hermosura, tiene muelle propio. Un montón de actividades free que hacen diariamente. Un resto y bar precioso. La cocina con todos los utensilios, todo el lugar era sumamente limpio y hermoso.

No hubo nada que no me gustara.
