Patricia, Colombia

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Room comfort
El lugar es acogedor, limpio, la atención es cordial, la cocina es completa, a diferencia de otros hostales puedes encontrar un par de libros y algunos juegos de mesa y las mascotas le dan un toque especial y divertido. Ademas no hay normas de vestir para cocinar o comer puedes hacerlo sin camisa y en bikini. Sin embargo si eres alguien buscas descansar antes de las 12 de la noche para aprovechar tus vacaciones al día siguiente o simplemente gustas de levantarse temprano para evitar el calor intenso y la congestión de gente en la playa; este no es el lugar para ti ya que, los huéspedes están autorizados a poner música a elevado volumen y cantar! "junto a las habitaciones privadas" hasta las 12 de la media noche y si la televisión del recibidor que esta cerca supera el volumen tolerable al parecer se rige por esta misma norma. Así que deberas ser " tolerante con el ruido intenso hasta la media noche" y acomodar tu horario de descanso desde la 1 am en adelante.

Bom. Voltaria.

Excelente opção de hostel. Estive comparando com um outro mais conhecido (e mais caro) na ilha, e com certeza o supera. Não é tão grande, então não são muitos hóspedes, o que faz sentir mais seguro. O hostel não tem ar. O chuveiro é frio (não vi problemas porque é muito quente)

Hostel autêntico

Blue Almond é um hostel autêntico, verdadeiramente para mochileiros, e destaca-se pelo seu excelente atendimento. Cabe ressaltar que encontra-se um pouco afastado do centro, porém em região calma e segura. Os quartos são básicos, que atendem aos viajantes com perfil mochileiro, porém sem ar condicionado, o que pode ser um problema nos dias mais quentes e úmidos.
