We stayed at this hostel for one night. We were greeted by a very nice gentleman who stayed up until we arrived (after 1am!) to check us in. The area is very safe and they are very diligent about locking the doors to the buildings. When I made this reservation online, hostelbookers said that breakfast was included, however, when we...

We stayed in a double room with bathroom for $24. The room was okay although bed not that comfortable. There were a number of draconian rules that were a bit mean spirited e.g. no drinks bought outside the hostel were allowed to be consumed in the communual area and no use of services such as wi-fi after check-out even if...

I'm going to write the bottom line first: I would never stay here again. The neighborhood: seemed safe and quiet, but I didn't explore it at all except to buy a yogurt at the tienda across the street. Not near tourist stuff, so it seemed. Check in: I walk in the lobby to the welcome poo left on the floor... More

The hostel is ok (although it's better not to walk around at night). I did not have a good time there - I felt like my money was welcome but not me. They serve breakfast on the terrace for 2$ (1 croissant, scrambled eggs, fruit juice and tea/coffee). WiFi is available but very very slow from the room. There are... More
