Guest Reviews
- Eliana (10/5): -
- Acuña (10/5): -
- Ana Claudia Rovira (9/5): - La atención, la ubicación y tenía todo lo necesario para una estancia cómoda. El baño un poco chico
- Alfonzo (8/5): - La cercania a la playa y la atencion de los dueños
- Diego (4/5): no volveria - personal muy amable, buena ubicacion bajo nivel de infrestructura, no pasa ningun proceso de validacion de sistemas electricos y demas servicion, muy precario y muy pero muy caro para lo que ofrecen
- Camilo Morales (9/5): - Buena ubicación y sirven desayuno sencillo. El baño un poco chico e incómodo, sin bidet.
- Eden (2/5): -
- Nayara (5/5): - A hospedagem estava vazia, reservei quarto compartilhado e me colocaram em um quarto com apenas duas camas.. então eu fiquei sozinha no quarto. Há um pé de uva no jardim.. muito lindo. localização excepcional No dia em que eu cheguei, o banheiro estava sujo, com muitos mosquitos no chão e veneno para rato também no chão.
O lugar do sanitário é diferente do lugar do banho. A porta do lugar do banho é uma porta que não é segura, com brechas e dá de frente ao jardim. Não me senti confortável. E a parte do box, onde você toma banho, pra tentar fugir de possíveis olhares de pessoas na parte externa, você tem que trocar de roupa dentro do box e o box é muito pequeno e não tem lugar onde pendurar as roupas. Então, não gostei disso. Na hora que eu cheguei e fui passar meu cartão, o recepcionista colocou um zero a mais e a minha sorte foi que eu não tinha saldo suficiente, senão eu ia pagar um valor absurdo pela minha estadia. Não sei se foi de propósito ou não, mas tomem cuidado em relação a isso. Sempre olhem o valor que foi colocado antes de fazer o pagamento. Achei o local muito macabro, principalmente porque eu estava sozinha, então não achei seguro, não voltaria pra lá. Local com um aspecto de velho, móveis velhos, cozinha com aspecto de suja. Não gostei.
- Hugo (10/5): - Siempre tan agradable quedarse unosw dias alli en ese hostel. Y la playa tan cerca. Y todos los servicios del balneario
- Edison (9/5): - La ubicación es inmejorable,la atención muy buena de Edgardo

- Diana (10/5): Hermosa - Nunca había estado en un Hostel. Me sorprendió todo el lugar. Teníamos disponible lugares muy lindos para estar. Las personas todas muy atentas y todo. El entorno hermoso y cerca de todos lugares para pasarla bien. Los colchones podrían estar mejor
- César Frederico (5/5): - Próximo à rodoviária e ao centro. Café da manhã bom para um hostel. O chuveiro do quarto que ficamos era péssimo. A água escorria rente à parede, quase impossível de entrar embaixo.
- Thiago (7/5): -
- Maria Milagros (7/5): -
- Andreas (9/5): - Sehr nette Leute,schöner Innenhof.Sauper...zu empfehlen...
- Djalal (9/5): -
- Facundo (8/5): - Fue excelente la atención del personal, Laura y Alvaro son excelentes anfitriones, nos dieron buenos tips de que lugares visitar, donde comer y tours bastante economicos para hacer. Además solucionaron a la brevedad posible el inconveniente que tuvimos con el agua caliente. La ubicación es centrica, cerca de lugares para comer, comprar o pasear. La habitación era chica, el baño pequeño. No tiene mucha privacidad dado que la ventana da hacia el patio compartido. También el horario para estar es extenso y se siente cuando hablan.
El desayuno fue bastante básico, creo que esto se podría mejorar.
- Itamar (6/5): Hostel com ótima localização mas com banheiro desconfortável - Hostel com bom custo benefício, fica em frente a uma feirinha agradável e próximo as praias. Tem um restaurante na frente com bons preços e refeições. Chuveiro muito ruim, sem pressão e saindo apenas fim da água, tinhamos de nos espremer contra a parede para tomar banho. Banheiro era pequeno e com pouco conforto também
- Yogesh (3/5): - Kitchen is good. Rooms are moderate. Washrooms are dirty.
- Ana Maria (8/5): - La atencion .uy amable

- Amalia (9/5): -
- Dr. Jean (2/5): Valor muito alto pelo pouco que ofereceram. - Próximo a praça, beira da praia, mercado e barzinhos, Limpeza e conforto.
Móveis velho, colchões ruins, equipamento defasado, sujeira, mau cheiro na água, banheiro quebrado, tudo muito velho, café da manhã simples demais pelo valor cobrado
- Bueno (10/5): -
- Techera (4/5): - La ubicación excelente Mala higiene.
Áreas de esparcimiento de jóvenes no respetaban HRS de descanso de familia c niños.

- Adilson (10/5): Muito bom - Fui bem atendido, ótima localização, ar condicionado muito bom, limpeza.
Considerando o preço, mais do que bom
- Ainara (5/5): -
- Marina (5/5): - A roupa de cama parecia manchada e com furos.
- Ana (7/5): Demasiado simples - Localização boa. A estrutura é um pouco precária. O banheiro muito pequeno e abafado, fica c mal cheiro. A roupa de cama não tem aparência de limpa, nem cheiro de roupa limpa. Precisam cuidar um pouco melhor da infraestrutura. Café simples.
- Lourdes Gabito (4/5): - La ubicación Muy descuidado y sucio
- Luiz (6/5): -
- Cornelio (8/5): - Excelente la ubicación .
Edgardo un genio. Se ocupa de todos los detalles. No me gustó que el precio publicado en Booking y del hostel variara . La diferencia, fue mínima , pero lo escribo por si acaso.
- Carmini (3/5): - Localização Muito caro para o pouco que oferece!
- jorge (10/5): - Está Serca de todo
- Bettina (1/5): - Das gesamte Hostel ist extrem runtergerockt.
- Andrea (4/5): De paso - Está bien ubicado, fácil de llegar y servicios cerca. Habitación con humedad, olor invasivo. No creo que sea saludable. Enchufe no funciona y otro roto.
- Juan Carlos (7/5): Agradable y bien ubicado. Buen desayuno. - El señor que atiende es muy atento y agradable, siempre dispuesto a ayudar. La ubicación esta genial y el desayuno bien. No se podía pagar con tarjeta, y se podría mejorar la limpieza. El lugar está bien, pero para el precio que piden podrían esforzarse más en mantenerlo y cuidarlo y ofrecer un mejor servicio.
- Ferioli (7/5): - Atención y ubicación. Nada de calefacción y baños precarios
- Emanuel (9/5): -

- Hot Showers
- Close to the terminal
-Big lockers

- Toilets were sometimes very dirty
- Most fruit in breakfast were bad or almost rotten
- Mara (6/5): Pleasant - The staff are very nice and the location is good between the bus station and the beach. The price was too expensive for what they offered, totally overpriced. We stayed in a room with a shower, but it wasn't working properly and there was a very bad smell coming up the drain. There's a dirty, rusty fridge in the room and we found that an insult.
- Evelyn (4/5): Good for a night. - Location was great It was not what I expected. The bathroom wasn’t comfortable at all.
- Silvia (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jeremy (3/5): Needs to be torn down - Close to beach and town and bus station This place needs to be torn down. It says it is an HI but there is no way they approve this place. It has not been cleaned in years, smells like mold, there was no heat in dorms and I was there in winter and basically used 8 blankets and all my clothes and froze. The man is not helpful. Breakfast was stale bread. He only cares about money and not making the place look nice or cleaning. Tiny kitchen. Overall terrible, avoid it.
- Lowenna (8/5): Friendly staff, good location, good breakfast. - Had a room all to ourself.
Good breakfast.
Friendly and helpful staff.
Close to bus station and 5 mins from the beach.
Lovely social courtyard. Could be cleaner, bathroom floors were dirty
And we saw cockroaches and slugs in the kitchen
Could do with a coat of paint and although sheets were clean, they had stains on them.
- John (7/5): Dog hostel - Staff were good, breakfast was ok,location to almost everything was good. Bus terminal 5/10 min away. Showers hot!Love the dogs 🐕. Good value. Men using women's restrooms. Staff told about this and avoided problem. Lockers small.
- Nicholas (10/5): Recommend - Close bus,beach & restaurants
- Leandro (4/5): Disappointing - The room was dirty. A lot of powder. Everything was old. The breakfast was poor.
- Joaquin (6/5): Stay was okay, not the best hostel i’ve ever been to but i just wanted somewhere to sleep that night - Breakfast was okay, nothing too special. Just okay. Facilities could’ve been better. Common rooms were clean but lacked comfort in all aspects.
- Julia (8/5): Very good -
- Corrine (10/5): Exceptional - The staff.
- Nicole (6/5): Pleasant - Location is perfect. Staff friendly and familiar. The kitchen is good enough to cook water for tea and coffe. Wouldnt like to use it for preparing Food. Dirty and smelly.
- Omer (7/5): Good - it's a lovely hostel, location are very good, the place have a lot of potencial, and the manager is very helpful and cooporate... the only thinkg that was definitely need to improove it's the cleaning... i don't know if it because i came out of season and was the only host at the hostel... but the room' and the whole place was far from clean, with a lot of evidance for other clients before...
- Marzena (5/5): Passable only becasue of close location to the bay terminal, but I was thinking to change place once I saw it - The only good thing about this hostel is it’s location and price. The hostel was dirty, kitchen and bathrooms were simply horrible, smelly and nasty dirty. common space the yard looked as if if was left behind some time ago without any attention. Tables and chairs very dirty, unattended.
- Nooshin (8/5): Very good - The breakfast was good and the staff is really welcoming and helpful.
- Andy (8/5): Real gem - Loved the set up around the two court yards Could do with more pots and pans for the kitchen
- Antoine (8/5): Very good - Amazing breakfast
Great staff that are helpfull
- Boerluc (7/5): Good -
- Gustavo (10/5): Exceptional -
- Edgard (10/5): - Bla Bla
- Solange (2/5): Me sentí estafada - Olor a humedad terrible, sin ventanas, cadaveres de mosquitos aplastados en las paredes, desayuno con fruta pasada, al mismo precio que una habitación normal en Manhattan. Opaca el recuerdo de la Paloma
