It is a peculiar hostel. It is a hostel made for those who travel in a group or alone, looking for entertainment or making new friends. The hostel offers daily activities to guests, and on certain days of the week there is a night party in a kind of underground discotheque in the same hostel, in other words, paradise for those who travel looking for fun. On the other hand, the staff has been quite friendly and the location is ideal. It should also be noted that if you are looking for peace and quiet, rest after days of hiking and you are not looking to socialize in particular, this IS NOT YOUR PLACE. The beds and pillows are especially uncomfortable and it has taken its toll on us. The fact of having a night party right below the hostel made the whole place shake with the music and made it difficult to rest. Being a hostel, people also move around the building more freely, and the creaking of the wood and the lack of wide partitions meant that you could hear the conversations in the other rooms. And if you add to this that the shared showers and bathrooms are next to the rooms, then there is no more to explain. As I said, it is a nice place, with very nice common areas. But it is not a place where you can go to rest.
