Top Lage, super freundlich, Klima funktioniert 🫱🏼‍🫲🏽 Außenbereich leider etwas ausbaufähig

Hatte mir ehrlich gesagt mehr erwartet wegen der guten Bewertungen. Es erfüllt seinen Zweck, aber die Matratzen waren dünn und unbequem. Die Klimaanlage war zu kalt eingestellt und es gab kaum gemütliche Chill-Möglichkeiten. Auch die Küche war schwach ausgestattet (nur Salz und Öl). Für einen kurzen Aufenthalt reicht es, aber mehr nicht.

Friendly atmosphere but the dorms and beds are absolutely tiny! When people are coming and going drunk it becomes very disruptive because of the tiny size of the room - someone also drunkenly knocked my curtain down when I was sleeping which wasn’t great. More of a party hostel than calm hostel which I was not expecting.

During my stay, this hostel was mainly visited by people younger than 22. The dorms are really too small to be comfortable in, there was no space to have the backpack in the room. Hygiene and cleanliness were poor (chewing gum sticked on the beds), the garden was not well equipped either (one hammock, 6 partly broken chairs, only benches). I can’t recommend it.

Hostel war super angenehm, sauber und sicher. Allerdings waren die Zimmer sehr eng. Wir konnten in unserem Bad nicht duschen und keine Zähne putze, da sehr wenig Wasser kam. Ein Mitarbeiter konnte nicht so gut englisch, aber man konnte sich verständigen :)

During my stay the staff that worked there was incredibly welcoming and helpful! The AC in the room was amazing, except didn't work one of the nights I was there, and some people said it can be a hit or miss. Plenty of fridge, cooking and hanging out space!

Comfy beds, decent breakfast. The one thing that bothered me was that the wall between the bathroom and the dorm was not built all the way to the ceiling which made the dorm a little bit uncomfortable.

Ganz nett, aber die Mitarbeitenden sind bisschen verpeilt. Sie hatten nicht am Schirm, dass wir schon angezahlt hatten und haben uns das dann zu viel abgebucht. Also darauf achten! Außerdem ist der Raucherbereich im Zentrum vom Gemeinschaftsbereich deswegen riechts überall

An amazing hostel. The accomodations were very comfortable and the volunteers were very cool. The location of the hostel is very near to the best beaches and best clubs.

Very chill and good atmosphere, and nice location. Almost always a little music playing, and a very sweet and calm dog, loved her! Simple, but has everything you need. Will definitely book her again if I’m ever back in Santa Teresa

This is fine for a cheap stay. A/c is nice to have but after it turns off in the morning I felt like I was sweating in a coffin. Individual fans like they have at other places would help. The rooms are far too narrow and there is not enough space for your bags. Also there is only 2 showers for the whole hostel so you have to wait sometimes. The gate was broken at the front so when I came home after a night out it was wide open, which felt a little unsafe as the dorms don’t lock.

Great hostel. Very outgoing vibe which is great. You are a 3 minute walk from the best bars and clubs in santa Teresa. Do check how much they charge you at the hostel for the night because it might be a bit more expensive. (could have been an honest mistake and it wasn’t much)

Great AC in the bed rooms. It’s a 10 min walk to the main area of Santa Teresa. Staff was great. We had a couple of fun outings as a hostel. Overall a solid place to stay!

Muy buen hostel. En Akih tuvimos una experiencia muy agradable: el personal es amable, las instalaciones están limpias y se genera un muy buen ambiente entre los huéspedes. Sin duda volvería!
