Property in is a great location, good breakfast downstairs in the cafe each morning for guests, good A/C and good WiFi. The accomodation is very basic, shower isn’t great. The rooms need decorating, our room had loads of air ducts and pipes running through it. Was in private room with en-suite but was divided from room by glass panel, so no privacy.

Comically loud room. Vent. Doorbell. Condensation dripping on me. Drunks loudly chatting up to 2am in the entry hall right next to the bed. Moved room next night. Much better.

Not very social & private room was essentially a bunk bed just with the top bunk sawn off. No proper AC either & no social area

Quirky hostel in great location. Met some awesome people there in the bar crawls which go to cool bars and no pressure to drink. Fun to end up in the jacuzzi after too. The bedding is soft and comfy and bathrooms were maintained. We had a sink in our dorm which was nice too.

+ The hostel is super nice and chill with the friendliest and most welcoming staff. Everyone was super lovely, but special shout out to Jose and Edgi. The beds were comfortable, the showers and toilets kept clean throughout the day and the complimentary coffee in the coffee next door is a wonderful way to start the day. The breakfast for a special price was also delicious and super good value for money

- Some rooms can be loud from the hallway and the live music outside

The room was good and clean, however very noisy from the neighbors (thin walls), and the surrounding area. The atmosphere and vibe in the common areas is good. The showers/toilets were a bit dirty, and for example in the showers, there wasn’t a convenient place to place your towel, clothes, shampoo, etc. We liked the location, as most of the attractions in the center are walkable from the hostel.

Great stay, but I never got back my refund :) Please review if you are part of staff. I checked-in on 8th April.
