Good value of money, great location (close to the metro) and the city center is only 30 min by walk on the promenade. Everybody is helpful and the property is calm, I had a good sleep after my long flight.

The staff were really helpful and friendly. The location is really quite close to the aiport as well as some great facilities. The room was very comfortable, honestly the bwd was so comfy, I slept as well here (if not better) than in some much more up-marked hotels. It was a real plus point for me. The room is basic but it literally has everything you need and the whole place has a cheerful vibe about it. On the basis of this stay, for the price....it's an exceptional find and I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

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.
