Dos veces me cobraron por la estadía. Desastroso

Un desastre.... Me cobraron a estadía dos veces alegando que no había entrado la plata. El servicio la verdad que más pareció que me hacían un favor... Cuando hice el descargo paara que me reembolsen, la mismísima dueña me dijo que por teléfono o email no pueden solucionarme... Que debería ir en persona. Tengo grabada la conversación. Deja mucho que desear... No lo recomiendo ni ahí.

Bom local com pessoas prestativas

A localização do hostel é muito boa, a poucas quadras da rodoviária tres cruces. A iluminação não é excelente, mas andei sozinha às 22h, sem intercorrências. Luís e a equipe são muito prestativos e gentis. Consegui dicas de locais para passeio, transporte e reserva para vinícola Bouza com eles.

Personnel aimable et serviable, accueil agréable ! Néanmoins l'isolation est a revoir, dans ma chambre il y a un espace entre le mur et la fenêtre dans lequel l'air passe, j'ai eu froid durant la nuit... Chasse d'eau non tirée quand je suis arrivée et propreté de la douche à revoir (porte savon rouillé, calcaire sur le robinet), débit de l'eau très faible Dommage qu'il n'y ait pas d'espace commun comme un salon Bonne connexion Wifi et coin cuisine avec micro ondes dans une autre pièce dans la chambre appréciable

スタッフが親切でした。 10人用のシェアルームにシャワーが1つなのと、キッチンにコンロが1つなので少し不便は感じましたが、短期滞在なら十分だと思います。

Localização mediana e hostel sem cara de hostel. O quarto com baixo conforme com persianas que nao fecham direito. Pelo custo / benefício acredito que é possível encontrar melhores experiências na cidade.
