Quiet and beautiful place with friendly people! Lots of fans in the dorm, good air circulation. Has hot water in one of the showers

Alina United States of America

This is the best hostel I’ve ever stayed at! Amazing atmosphere and absolutely gorgeous pool, also appreciated all the kitchens

Kseniia Russia

This could easily be a 10 hostel, they just need to invest in the rooms. Nice location, good kitchen, amazing swimming pool and green areas.

Francisco United Kingdom

It is a beautiful place, very chill. Nearby there is a National Park with the most beautiful sunset we have ever seen. We wish we could stay longer.
