The best thing about this place is the staff. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2020 ### 4/10 Poor #### Jonathan 23 Feb 2020 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Tried to pull a switcheroo on my room I had the balcony room reserved for one night but they tried to give me a vastly inferior, coffin room instead and when I called them on it, they said the room I reserved wasn't available and they would give me a minor discount on the cheap room which was still way too high a price for it. They probably had found somebody who wanted my room for more than one night and figured I would take a cheap , being left with no other option. I instead went to the Roca Hostel nearby and that was a much better option at a much lower price. ##### Jonathan Stayed 1 night in Feb 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 20 Mar 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A great place to crash I had never stayed in a hostel before and wanted to make a go of it. I am glad I did. Overall, I had a wonderful stay here. This is a family-owned operation, run by genuine, down-to-earth people-the kind of people you want to give your money to. It is located well within walking/cycling distance to all of the local bars. The accommodations were more than adequate for my needs. I would have no problem staying here again. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 8 nights in Mar 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Marijn 15 Mar 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Zeer vriendelijke eigenaar De eigenaar is zeer vriendelijk en erg behulpzaam. Ze behandelen je als familie. Onze kamer had ook een keuken. De ramen kunnen alleen niet dicht en je hoort s nachts muziek. Ook hadden we geen WiFi in de kamer. We konden fietsen huren wat erg handig is. ##### Marijn Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 9 Mar 2019 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Amenities Free coffee and drinking water, unfortunately we had mosquitos in the room and it was also hot.

Canada 24 Feb 2018 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Feeling like a home This hotel is like staying with a family. They are sweet and eager to see that you are happy. The location is easy walking to anywhere you want to go. But far enough to get away from the party and get some sleep. Bike rentals are right on the property. And if you are missing your family pet back home. There are plenty here that are happy to get some of your attention. ##### Allison Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrea 15 Nov 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Puerto viejo 2 fermata Hote tranquillo vicino al centro 3 min a piedi 2 in bici, che noleggiano in sede.
