8.4Verified guest“As business travellers staying long-term, we found the staff incredibly helpful and well-informed. Lisa stood out for her perfect English and gave us city, country, and even continent-wide advice that went beyond guidebooks. The rooftop BBQ cooked by Juan Manuel was delicious and a great way to meet other guests. The hostel was clean, with plenty of shared bathrooms and a pleasant common area with computers and a balcony.”
