Great hostel, lovely breakfast and offers nice free dinners 3 times per week. We rented bikes easily through the hostel to get to the waterfalls. We had a blast, the bikes and the whole team were great! Would recommend staying here when in Banos

On a passé un excellent séjour dans cette auberge, très bon petit déjeuné. Les espaces communs sont super agréables, et le personnel hyper gentil ! Carlos nous a super bien renseigné sur les activités à faire autour de la ville, il a été d’une grande aide ! N’hésitez pas à faire la balade à vélo, l’auberge en loue et ça en vaut la peine !

+ מקום חברתי טוב למטיילים סוליסטים. יש מלא פעילויות של ההוסטל עצמו. מרחב משותף נחמד מאוד.

- המקלחת לא הייתה נוחה. לא היה שום מדף או מתלה. אין סבון ידיים בשירותים בחדר. וויי-פיי מתנתק כל הזמן אין וילונות במיטות ושקע ההטענה היה לא נגיש ומוסתר על ידי המיטה
