Great experience

"Amazing hostel, friendly staff, everything very clean and organized and several leisure options. It has a shared kitchen and its own bar and restaurant."
โ€œ

Lovely Staff

"The hostel has an excellent location and a lovely staff. Stephanie was the most wonderful. There was a funny smell in our room, we asked at the lobby if it was possible to make a change to any other room even if it had no balcony. She helped us to get another room that was actually an upgrade from the one we had, at no extra cost. She was on top of all the details for the room change, always polite and nice."

Great atmosphere

"Great check in by Jean Carlos, great atmosphere at the bar and downstairs deck. Relaxation guaranteed! Also a good location relative to the water taxi terminal. Just turn right out of the terminal and walk about 2 minutes; it will be on your right. Also close to the jetty where you can get a $1 ferry (one way) to the close side of Isla Carnero for a quick excursion. Bathrooms were clean, bed was comfortable and AC is available throughout the day for whenever you want to take a much needed break from the heat outside."
