Lovely place in perfect location

Fine stay in perfect location! Lovely building with excellent roof terrace and shared lounge area. Stayed in a double room and besides a slight drainage smell and glitchy TV remote all was great. Walked from the bus station and to the ferry terminal with backpacks no probs!

Got what I paid for!

I thought this hostel was a great deal is a great location! I also liked that I had the option to have a private room and bathroom. My only complaints are the noise late into the night from the people on the balcony next door and the fact that the sheets smelled a little musty. The staff was great!

Very pleasantly surprised

I haven’t stayed in a hostel down for about 20 years, but had no choice due to everything else sold out (New Year’s eve) and I have to say that I was very pleasantly surprised ! It was clean, good security (private locker), good privacy (privacy curtain) and seems to attract a good standard of guest. I would actually stay again without hesitation.

Desconozco si se aceptan mascotas, mas no habían huéspedes que tuvieran. La piscina estaba sucia ya que me comentaron que no funcionaba el equipo para filtrar. Lo arreglaron casi al final de mi estadía. No se aviso eso previo a mi reserva. La habitación se limpiaba a diario, aunque el baño enseguida emanaba un poco de olor a pis. Eso se podría arreglar fácilmente con algún desodorante. Sector cocina, faltaba limpieza en la heladera de uso común.
