Bien ubicado, y bastante cómodo para ser un hostal; la atención brindada por las chicas de la recepción y las personas encargadas del desayuno fue muy amable.

I loved the atmosphere and the staff

The big dorm rooms didn't have ac, so it got really hot at night

Very social hostel with a great bar and friendly staff. Best place in the country to meet other travellers. Comfortable rooms, good Aircon, nice little pool to cool down in and pool table + dart board.

Not much hot water as it's a solar shower system, but it was okay for me with the weather.
