    Cool vibe!!

  • Engine customer Oct 2026

    Nothing The staff member had no experience whatsoever; the bed he assigned had never been cleaned—it was just as the previous guest had left it—and he had no idea what to do. He showed me a storage area where I could put my bag, and I put it there. I had to leave the hotel at 7:00 a.m., but I had to wait until 11:00 a.m. for him to open the locker with his own key. No employee can show up for work at 11; that’s why I lost three hours and my whole plan was thrown off. They said breakfast would be served at 8:30, but even at 11 a.m. there was no sign of breakfast—it was a completely abandoned establishment!

    Comfortable and warm. The public bus goes to the beach. Seemed too far to walk to me. Beach is nice. They wash your cloths and charge a flat fee. I decided to stay here because of the laundry room but you have no access to it.

    The location is nice. It's a worse location than the location of the nearby cheaper and quieter hostel though Host was so stoned that she forgot the door code while giving me a tour, then later forgot which bed she assigned me once I was already in it - she came in super aggro and accusatory instead of admitting she was wrong. Beyond that it was by far the loudest hostel I've ever been in. Cleanliness was average for a hostel. Hostel right down the street was cheaper, MUCH quieter and no staff yelling at me while I'm in my bed. Only upsides to the stay were good coffee and some of the other travelers were really nice. Wouldn't stay here again if there were no other options. Never got my deposit for the pillow and towels back either.

    Staff was awesome and so helpful, rooms were clean. Lots of kitchen space. What I was a bit annoyed with because I stayed at other hostels is that for cooking there was never salt or butter you had to buy your own. I’m not used to it being that bare bones. Mostly quiet minus the airplanes too. Cozy spot, nice area

    always like this place ,hope to go again

    Super chill vibes at this hostel. Trip was mid August so that may have had something to do with it. That said, the staff were all helpful ans the rooms were clean. Common areas are nice and it seemed they had nightly activities to participate in.
