    Everything! Comfy bed, personal fan, AC at night, even got an extra pillow if you needed it. Very social hostel, something on every day and night if you'd like to join in. Great location that is quiet but only a few minutes walk to the centre. Loved the rooftop for a drink or just chill, great view.

    One of my fave hostels I’ve stayed at. Staff were so friendly. Plenty of opportunities to take part in social activities run through the hostel. Great location. Lovely upstairs bar. Clean environment. Bunk beds have curtains allowing for privacy. Overall a wonderful stay.

    It’s in a great location just a 4min walk away from the central bus station and 10-15min walk from the center. I felt really safe all the time. The staff were really friendly and helpful and they plan activities most days of the week, so it’s great to meet new people. The facilities are very nice and clean.

    Great location, a few blocks from the centre, but do not walk around after 11/12pm, good to ask for a taxi number at the reception and use it even for a short ride if coming back late at night. Staff is very helpful and attentive, pays attention to safety. Nice, basic rooftop to chill. Great choice for travelers looking for private suite that like peace and quiet. It’s not a hostel if one’s looking some social interactions.
