Amazing hostel with cozy travel and chill vibes. The staff was super nice and always helpful, the rooms clean and comfortable. The roof terrace is amazing to relax and enjoy delicious pancakes for breakfast in the sun. The location is very convenient, close to the center and with a big supermarket next door. Already returned to the hostel once and would for sure come back whenever I’m in DC again. The wifi didn’t reach all spots but worked just fine in the lobby and basement rooms :)

It was my second time at Caravan Hostel. Everything went really nice. People are kind and caring. I was expecting a package before my arrival and they received and took care for me. No problem at all. The neighborhood is awesome and you can go anywhere by bus or train. I had an amazing experience.

Looking for a hostel?

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.
