Stayed there for 8 nights and had the best time. Great stuff at the reception, great place to meet people. It's a little bit outside but there's a supermarket really close, kitchen to use, lockers. You won't regret it!

Ivy has the most amazing staff of anything anywhere. Victoria and Pahola went above and beyond to make me and all the other guests feel not only welcome but like we had a new family. I can’t recommend this place enough, entirely because of them. They make this place truly special.

Unfortunately, the dorm was really small and noisy as next to the terrace. it was an ordeal to charge my things as no plugs available for everybody. Some volonteers should learn how to smile and not bark at people.

“Worst Hostel management and got ripped off”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Stayed 1 night
- • Submitted from a mobile device
I booked here on bookings and it said $22,000 pesos a night and then I asked a staff member to extend two nights and he said ok. I asked will it be the same price, he said yes. That is the only reason why I extended two more nights because it was competitively affordable. And then when I went to check out they told me i had to pay $30,000 a night for my two extra nights I was told would be only $22,000 a night. As this was unacceptable I asked to call the manager and after arguing with a very very rude manager he threatened to call the cops on me because I told him I would give him a bad review and it’s unfair that I have to pay extra. This is absolutely unacceptable behavior. I have stayed in 100+ hostels and NEVER has this happened to me. The mistake is on them, therefore they should pay! Not the customer. They forced me to pay their mistake or else I would have been arrested for something not even that big. And it’s not so much the money, but the principal of getting ripped off. This is without a doubt the worst hostel experience I have had and unless you want to be ripped off by a atrocious boss, I DO NOT RECOMMEND!!

The bed was uncomfortable so I switched beds and it was a bit better. They had no plugs so we all had to share an extension on the floor. For you to understand it is literally a house with big rooms and they have lots of beds in each of it so you don’t really feel like you are at a hostel and it is a bit quiet for what I’d like it to be
The breakfast was great and the location was nice and safe with a mall and a supermarket very close to it. The staff was also nice and the environment was good!

The internet is actually quite bad / almost never working for me. And it’s too bad the windows don’t open in the bunk rooms. But the excellent staff made up for both of these things X 1000.
