One of the best hostel I've ever been to! I actually stayed at the Macarena Beach Hostel, which Tommy (the owner) kindly offered to move me to because of the nightlife noise. Tommy's really nice and for his kindness alone, this hostel deserves a 10 out of 10 rating. Thanks again !

Tranquilo e seguro

Tommy é super solícito e está o tempo todo por perto dando dicas sobre o lugar. Achei o hostel bem seguro, precisei deixar todos os objetos de valor no armário do quarto para ir pra praia e não tive nenhum problema.
