Arrived with a big group and given any company would find that stressful, there was no organisation whatsoever. Half of us were left without a key, facilities weren’t great and one of the rooms were without a lock. It’s fine for one night but don’t stay by yourself. ##### Isabel Stayed 1 night in Apr 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Shelley Jun 28, 2023 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness I wasn’t comfortable with the shower privacy and felt that some blacked out glass would be better. Also, a shelf for my dry clothes in the shower would be helpful. Floor wasn’t clean either. Affordable, but next to I’ll spend a little more to stay elsewhere. ##### Shelley Stayed 1 night in Jun 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Sam Jul 20, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I paid $297 for the double room which was nothing like the photo's, it was a half finished room with no blankets and the mattress was filthy. I was locked out of my room and the staff were unable to find a key for a considerable amount of time. Terrible experience. ##### Sam Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Nov 15, 2017 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities #### Very dirty, need to throw disgusting furniture out Very dirty need to clean once a day. Clean towels in kitchen every day. Couches and chairs look disgusting need to be replaced. Faucets do not work. Need outside light on night entry. Kitchen dirty. On the other hand the owner and staff were friendly and helpful. It was a good location for me close to rental car return and airport ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Nov 2017 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Lotty Jul 5, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities ##### Lotty Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Paul Jun 15, 2025 ##### Paul Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Dalia Apr 24, 2025 ##### Dalia Stayed 5 nights in Apr 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Shameerza Aug 30, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities ##### Shameerza Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### DONGQI Jan 31, 2024 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities ##### DONGQI Stayed 1 night in Jan 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### cecile Dec 21, 2023 ##### cecile Stayed 1 night in Dec 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Jan 20, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Good social hostel just lacking a few basic things: No microwave in the kitchen; no lockers in the room; no milk provided with the cereal and toast breakfast. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jan 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Matt, Buenos Aires Dec 13, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Awesome hostel, I wish I could've stayed longer.
