Location was amazing. The staff was excellent and volunteers were so kind and helpful. One of the best hostels I have been to.. the rooftop kit he. And patio is perfect 👌. My only suggestion for improvement would be to add a hammock or 2 🤣

“Amazing!”
The hostel is in a prime location in the center of town. It's absolutely beautiful, covered in bright colours, murals, and plants. The staff are extremely friendly. The vibes are chill. Beautiful rooftop little kitchen, great outdoor lounges. Will definitely come here again.

Big thanks to Natalia , she helped us and made the best breakfast pancake for us ! The location is amaizing , everything you need is perfectly reachable by foot We left our luggage at reception as our flight was in the afternoon , super safe ! We stayed in Diego Rivera and the bed is big and comfy. The room was clean, maybe the fan could be a bit cleaner... it s completely black ... but it s okay ! No biggie Stay here great atmosphere 👌 you will enjoy the roof top and the chill out spac3 and th3 little gym corner with weights 💪 😉

“Decent, could have a few things upgraded or worked on though.”
Upstairs was nice and pleasant to sit at. Etc - great for mingling etc, and rooms are cheap enough to get space there. Only thing that was a major issue you couldn't really the toilet ( green) - it seemed to have a water pressure issue, as did the sink. Could be def fixed to improve overall usage. Thanks.

“It was over all very. pleasant and friendly. I was welcomed.”
The hostel has a boho-chic feel with a friendly staff. Its an old building so even at its cleanest it looks a bit shabby. Staff is amazing. makes you interact with other guests so there is a sense of community.

“I left immediately because I didn’t like anything and the hostel’s rules made the stay impossible for me.”
I didn’t like anything, which is why, as soon as I arrived at the property, I decided not to stay and moved to another place.
