1000% one of the best hostels I’ve stayed at! Everything felt seamless, from check-in to the awesome food and drinks they have, social events, and the colourful community spaces they had available there.

Stayed here twice before and after a trek. Very social, felt very safe and was staffed overnight, lots of spaces inside to sit and chill or work. Everywhere was kept clean and I appreciated little things like the railings to dry clothes or towels, the water refills and free coca tea, and that I could store my luggage securely whilst trekking. Staff all very friendly and helpful.
