Liked: Really nice to have breakfast on the beach.
Disliked: There were renovations in order. We booked a twin room and got a dorm room. It was made private, but a dark room and the bathroom was smelly. Because of the renovations you could not stay in bed late or stay in the room during daytime. On top of that they charged extra for payment with credit card and demand direct payment at arrival, even though in very late in the evening after long travel...
The property's response is

Liked: sobre todo la amabilidad de todos los chicos que trabajan en el hostel y en el bar de la playa.Me lleve muchos amigos y sin dudas volveria a este hostel. La buena onda y simpatia de todos hace que el ambiente sea excelente y el precio yo pague un promedio de 29 reales la noche y con el buen desayuno que sirven ya vale la pena.algo para rescatar tambien es la presencia de sus dueños casi todo el dia en el lugar y sin que te des cuenta que son los dueños ya que te atienden con la misma buena onda que cualquiera de sus empleados.espero que les sirva mi comentario

Liked: great location on the beach with a great breakfast. the 2 argentine boys with long hair very good and helpful!
Disliked: my girlfriend and a friend got bedbugs. some staff let their friends stay in our dorm and then they hopped into bed with our room mate. the kitchen is very dirty and badly equipped, staff dont do their own dished so people staying start to leave theirs as well. some days the staff would occupy the couches and hammocks to have a nap leaving no space for customers. and finally the directions on the website were terrible need updating.
The property's response is
