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.

    Nothing! Not a hostel. Small apartment with shared space for people who left to go to work! Lay over stay. Requested lower bunk and got it. Only 1 initially unfriendly seemingly "long-term " guest in room. Between uber/tip/travel time RT. I should have stayed at an airport hotel for about the same. Shuttle. Breakfast and a decent restuarant I felt safe walking to...

    Great place to stay! The room was spacious and modern, with a small kitchen that provides all essentials. Cheap guest laundry available as well. Everything was spotless. Very friendly and helpful staff. The location is great as well, just across the street from the beach in a quiet and safe neighborhood. Restaurants, bars, and grocery stores can be found within walking distance. The accommodation can easily be reached by bus from the airport.

    Great location and a cute, comfy room. It was a great couple of nights. Quiet and charming. We never used the pool, but the grounds are well kept and pretty. I liked that it was gated and felt safe. And free easy parking too.

    There is very responsible and kind Administrator, helping with advices on public transports around, also by caring to call Taxi and other important issues on place. Very serious care about quests. As also property's owner was very kind in e-mails, agreeing on my late arriving until I was in place. Good clients service for hostel. Cleaned. Wide kitchen. Cozy room, good one. For things to keep safe pick up your own small lock or you could put some things under key, supported by Administrator.
