“It was OK. But not great.”

It was always clean.

“Best opportunity for you to stay at low cost in a central place with friendly people.”

The whole pista q hostel is super clean, the location in close walking distance to the sea, the supermarket and to the main street with it‘s rich possibilities to go shopping. Right next to it is El Gaucho, the argentinian steack house. Mildred and Luis are kind and happy to answer your questions. Every time you walk in the cat is saying hello :) I enjoyed my time eating dinner and chilling at the pool.

Wifi,clean

Good location, within walking distance of town but far from tourist crowds. Full kitchen facilities and equipment for self catering. Many restaurants nearby especially Peanuts restaurant for good local food. Supermarket is nearby. Very friendly hosts! Good overall value for Aruba. There weren't that many guests in the dorm when I stayed so it was almost like having private space.

“Inconvenient check-in, shower has no hot water.”

The room is reasonably clean and spacious. Walking to the city centre and the nearby bus stop is convenient. There is a cute cat in the house (not ideal if you do not want a cat to walk and sleep on everything, including the kitchen and dining area).

“Decent value for Aruba”

Location was good, it was clean

On the positive side, the location is excellent. The place was clean and comfortable, and the host was nice and welcoming.

“Comfortable”

Location is good, given that is so close to downtown and a couple of beaches. Pretty affordable too.

“Highly recommended if you want to go cheap and still be close to the center”

Great cost benefit ratio in Aruba

“nicw and cheap”

all

The location is great and people are amazing

“Owners were really nice and Cooperative. One of the very few cheapest option to stay in Aruba.”

Close to the beach, less than 10 minutes from water.

Great hostel. Comfortable bed, air conditioning available 24/7. Markets are nearby. The bus station is less than a 5-minute walk away. Very well-equipped kitchen.

The hosts are very friendly, the room was clean and AC functioning perfectly. We were allowed to leave our bags after the check out time. The kitchen is well equipped for cooking whatever you like. Perfect location to be close to the town center and the beach.

“Good value for money, good location, good for a day or two”

The location is great, walking distance to most attractions in the city centre. The facilities themselves are very basic, one of the rooms has a very small bathroom, and another room has a bigger bathroom but a very small bedroom area. It’s advisable to check what room you are getting before you reserve.

Very central location, plenty of common spaces, clean, good kitchen facilities, good Wi-Fi, air conditioned rooms.

“A cute and homey hostel with a lovely pool :)”

Frankly speaking, this is one of the best hostels in my life. There is air conditioning in the room, there is a fully equipped kitchen, and what is more amazing, there is a gorgeous swimming pool which is always empty of any people. I deffo recommend this hostel and I will be back. There are a lot of common spaces to relax or to work online. The swimming pool is surrounded by palms and the location is perfect - 10 minutes walking to the marina and 40 minutes walking to the delightful beaches :) One little minus is the a-bit-coldish water in the shower but this is so everywhere in the Caribbean :)

“Perfect for a budget traveller.”

I stayed in a double room with en ensuite bathroom. The host is great helpful. The room is quiet and the bed is comfy. AC is very strong. Better than I thought.

“Good budget option, with the odd quirk”

One of the few budget/hostel options on an expensive island. The managers were helpful and flexible (though you will need Spanish to get the best from Luis). The hostel is clean and well looked-after - and there is a small pool out the back. The air-con in the bedrooms is effective and not limited to only certain times. Located in the city itself, about 15 minutes walk from the bus station.

Central and cheap. Friendly staff.
