The GREEN Hostel

Nice project! Beautiful hostel with great graffitti on the walls and great location. The staff was very smiley and polite whenever I saw them but quite absent. The bed was comfortable and there was good vibes. I would recommend it but only if he improves certain things.

I could tell that it was in process of evolution so I think it can get better. I think that the staff should be more present. There was never anyone at the reception desk and when I asked to to be given a towel or even to rent it, the guy told me there was no towel. But after I had asked him, I had to go back to him to ask again while he was chilling with his friends. He never came back to inform me. The kitchen was quite clean but the rest of the hostel and especially the bathroom fo my room, no. Maybe shower curtains should be bought so that water doesn't fall out of the shower, and clean more the restrooms (it's primordial)! Even the room floor... If all this cannot be done, then maybe the price should be lowered because it's equal price or even more expensive from other hostels I have in mind in with much better services. Thank you!

Nothing.. they overbooked, so I could not get the bed I paid for and there wasn’t any beds free at all so I was send away with no other place to stay

Nothing to say

Unfortunately we didn’t notice that the check in was until 7pm. We received a message before with a lot of information but nothing about the check in and when we arrived the hostel was closed. We sent a message at the time, and in the day after because since we already paid for the room we would like to use the hostel to keep our luggage in the day after. But no one answered us at all. We know that we should have seen the schedule but at least we expected an answer from the hostel

The location.

It seemed very old. I searched in vain for staff at the checkout. There was no one on site who could help.

Its super quirky decor, spray painted walls, mixed with old style furniture (It has tons of potential if given some maintenance and a wee bit of life injected into the place). We had a private room with a bathroom and a wee bonus balcony! The other guests made the place, got to know some lovely folk.

I have stayed at many hostels on my travels and my impression of a hostel is that its a place with a buzz about it for folk to meet, and come and go freely...... We arrived in Point A Pitre late morning and made our way to the hostel to find a locked door - rung the doorbell to see if we could leave our things and then come back later to check in - no answer.... We arrived back just before 3, but still no answer until after 3. Once we got in everything was mostly fine, but (worryingly) in the evening after 8pm the doorbell rang (a few times) - no staff answered, so I'm presuming that whoever was trying to check in was left on the street to go find somewhere else to stay!! In the morning, we had to leave early to catch our Ferry, there was nobody on reception so we had no idea where to leave the key and the permanently locked door had been left unlocked (!?!!??!). So, I guess what I am trying to say is that if you are booking here you need to make absolutely sure you let them know exactly what your arrival plans are otherwise you might end up locked out as a permanently locked door and a 4 hour check in period isn't particularly user friendly! Also, some information/advertising leaflets about stuff to do would be handy for visitors just arriving on Guadeloupe.
