Customer review

As a family with children

Family Holiday

09 May 2012 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: We were travelling as a family with a baby, and this was the perfect hostel, quiet, right in the centro, with a kitchenette. Staff was extremely kind and helpful. If you want to socialize, you might want to go to the other location of Emerald Fields, although there is a nice big common area here. Room was huge, excellent view, very clean. Would return anytime!

Disliked: Stovetop would have been nice. That's about it!

Liked: + very clean (but see dislike section for lockout policy) + very friendly staff. Some of the staff went out to the clubs with us and showed us around when we got there + Always felt safe there + Very small, only a few guests (could be a negative depending on what you like)

Disliked: - Mandatory/forced lockout from 11 AM to 2 PM. They WILL wake you up if you're still sleeping - Somewhat far from the sights - No organized hostel activities - Not very social because of small size
