Rooms are very well structured, bunk beds are very comfortable and have privacy. The common spaces were always clean

Andrea Colombia

The staff was extremely friendly and made everyone feel like family. The fact that you didn't have to share the bathroom with someone else at the same time was pleasant. The hostel had some nice activities each night that made everyone in the hostel gather around.

Alexandru Romania

The hostel is “old” looking. Nice decor, very original. The bathroom was very neat and clean. Also there’s a bar, very cool to hang out there.

Evelyn Paraguay

The vibe, kitchen, free coffee, everyone is so relaxed

Roger United States

The location was great, they have a full bar and a very nice common area to share with all the other guests. Beds where great and clean, as well as the bathrooms.

Alberto Costa Rica

The place was trendy and fun. It has an interesting decor and the bar and the kitchen has a good vibe. The staff were friendly and welcoming and helped us with all our questions.

Carol United Kingdom

Great location near everything. Great, friendly staff. Cool bar. Very casual and friendly place.

Elizabeth United States

I loved the globe room they have upstairs. It’s accessible to everyone and is the perfect spot to read a book or have an intimate conversation. They’re outside seating area is also so beautiful. I had an amazing stay and definitely recommend this hostel.

Mbali United States

The location, the atmosphere, and people are very good.

  • Do you offer luggage storage?
    Each room has lockers complimentary for each guest to use. The lockers range in size, but will be able to at least fit your valuables. If you luggage does not fit in a locker, feel free to keep it in the dorm room next to your bunk. Or you can still take advantage of our locked storage room during your stay. Just bring your bags down to the front desk, we will store them, and reassured that you can access them at anytime. Forget a lock? No problem, we got you! Ask one of our team members for a flat $3 lock rental, or keep the lock for $5.
