Mi experiencia en el hostel fue excelente ya que el lugar es exactamente lo que buscaba, si deseas ir al mar lo tienes en frente justo al abrir los ojos, Eros es un excelente anfitrión y respeta al cien las horas de trabajo. Recomiendo esta experiencia al 100% Tengo que volver.

No tuve una buena experiencia con el anfitrión. A pesar de que se cumplió con lo acordado en cuanto a labores y horarios, Eros el administrador, es una persona muy hostil. Desde mi llegada noté su actitud, y traté de no darle importancia pero con el tiempo fue peor, si se estresaba me hablaba y respondía de forma grosera, levantando la voz y si trataba de dar solucion a sus reclamos se negaba a todo. El 90% del tiempo estaba encerrado como el mismo lo dijo “fumando, jugando videojuegos y hablando con su novia” y si salía y faltaba algo por hacer o estábamos descansando se enojaba Porestomefui
