It was amazing hostel! I can't think of anything significant enough to complain about. The bed is SUPER soft! One of best hostel bed in my two years of traveling. There are outlet available on each bed which is useful. It's really beautiful too. One of most beautiful hostel I stayed in my two years. The service is great too. They are very nice people as well they try their best to adapt to your need. As I don't eat some specific food, they offered me a toasted bread with avocado for breakfast. What more I can ask for! Enough with positives, there are few things that are not perfect. The location is very good but not the best. It's about 15 -20 walking minutes away from market and 7 walking minutes away from AMPM store. Night time, you better to walk with others or take a taxi for safety
This is a good place to stay. The breakfast was delicious. Very kind staff. Location is great at reasonable prices.

Liked: Staff & service
Jose was absolutely great. Welcomed us very kindly and made sure we feel comfortable at all times. Place itself is what you can expect from a hostel. Cleanliness can definitely be improved but covid measures were in place. Breakfast was also a nice touch. Staff is just fantastic and super helpful and friendly.
Lovely place and excellent location.
Staff is really friendly and helpful, Esteban went above and beyond and his recommendations were amazing. Breakfast was awesome too. Thank you!
Es un hostel nuevo muy lindo en una muy buena zona. Todo impecable con buen diseño y un excelente trato de los dueños y empleados; son unos amores. Me encantó haber seleccionado este hostal! Lo recomiendo 100%.
