The staff, and casual interactions with fellow travelers. Also, the free breakfast was well done, appreciated the eggs and toast fresh fruit in season!

The location is perfect, the staff and the vibe at the hostel is amaizing.

It’s a backpacker’s dream place with all the facilities à traveller could want.

Nice yard, friendly stuff.... this place is just a must to stay when you are in santo domingo!

This was probably the most fun hostel I've ever stayed at. Met lots of really fun people, it was a set-up and atmosphere really conducive to making friends. And the staff was fantastic--very nice, helpful and fun.

Breakfast was incredible, staff super friendly, gracious, and accommodating, facility was more than expect ..absolutely price worthy.

Love this place. Great location, great staff, great set-up of the hostel (chill area, yard, bar, kitchen). Bed was comfortable and bathroom facilities were good. Lovely free breakfast was an added bonus.

The room was comfortable and the location was perfect.

The hostel is on a perfect location, just a block away from Plaza España. The staff was friendly and the manager helped us with everything we needed. Also the patio inside is so big and cozy. We definitely recommend it and will come back next time we're in Santo Domingo.

great location, nice staff, free brekky/coffee included, cute rescue dogs
