Excellent location, big hostel were it will be easy to get to know new people - common area is huge. Pool and jacuzzi much appreciated - especially for socialisation and in the unfortunated days of rain. The rooms were very clean and cozy, i was staying in a 4-beds dorm. Highly recommended!

AMAZING HOSTEL. I have stayed in many hostels previously but this one is 100% the best one I stayed in. Beds are like small cubicles which gives you a bit of privacy while the common areas are very social, clean and modern. Also nice to have the ensuite bathroom. Decorations and overall style beautiful and modern. Shout out to receptionist Marin and manager Jennifer for doing an amazing job.
