Small but cozy place, cleaning standards were good, quiet and peaceful place. Good place to practice hostel management skills.

Llegar al hostel fue de las mejores experiencias que he tenido, el equipo es una gran familia, siempre amables y accesibles. Me hicieron sentir en casa en todo momento. Meche y Francisco me recibieron como parte de su equipo desde el primer minuto. El lugar es muy tranquilo, comodo y agradable, hice muchos amigos internacionales y vivi experiencias maravillosas con los tours que me gane gracias a mi labor dentro del hostel. A la hora del desayuno se hace una convivencia familiar y las noches de bohemia en el garden mis favoritas. Muchas gracias el hostel. Volvere pronto.
