Everyone's very friendly. Great place to get to know more people. The staff is helpful. You might have some small communication issues as the staff are composed mainly by Spanish speakers, but I didn't have any problems with that as they were always very patient to understand what I needed.

Awesome hostel if you want to social but not party. It’s a great hostel for solo travellers. The staff was so friendly and helped me a lot when planning my trip. Also the common area is great to meet people - we love staying there to chat . Everyone I met there was so friendly and interesting.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Super friendly hostel in great location. Very close to a Rana Dorada craft beer joint and a cheap yet tasty pizza shop. Very near the front, if you want to walk/jog/run along the boardwalk.
