Liked: Nearby inexpensive Publix supermarket and Cuban restaurant. Free internet, but only some electrical outlets are the modern type that accept 3 prong plugs. Neighborhood is not bad.

Disliked: Very bare bones hostel and poorly designed. The bunkbeds are built so that even a short person can't sit on their bed without bumping their head: in the dozen hostels I've stayed in, never seen that. Air conditioner in room shut off halfway through the night (either designed that way or so noisy someone would shut it off), so I would wake up too early being warm to sleep and dehydrated. Only 4 spoons in the drawer, 4 glasses, 4 bowls, though tons of plates for the whole hostel --- why not just go to Goodwill and get more of bowls and lots of silverware. No toilet paper in 2 bathrooms when I first arrived, and no soap in the bathrooms at all. I went to the kitchen to wash my hands with soap each time I needed to, but it creeped me out that likely most guests had poop-related diseases on their hands due to lack of soap.

Liked: Free Breakfast (muffins + coffee)

Disliked: It's been the most expensive (~35$), yet worst hostel on our whole trip. You have have to pay for WiFi, Pool- Table, no Laundry facilities, heavily used interieur, not really "clean". Guest were all in all okay, but there were some really creepy guys among them! Sound of Air Condition kept kept me awake whole night. For half the price ... okay, but not for that one. i definately DONT recommend this hostel!

06 December 2009 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Large spaces, free muffins and coffee, friendly staff, bus right outside the door. Not so nice was the out-of-order toilet in my room that I couldn't use during my stay, the terrible matrasses and the fact that you have to pay $5 for the wireless connection, and $1 for the linen and blancket. Normally this is free in 90% of the hostels.
