What a qonderful experience I had at this hostel. Met so many amazing people, I did not want to go back home! Extra clean wherever you went, huge kitchen for cooking without hassle, perfect location near beaches and transportation. They hosted daily activities to connect, the bed were comfortable. In general I had THE best time there.

Budget travelers know there's 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 little more.
