Lo recomiendo!

El hostel es atendido por una familia local, super amables y serviciales. Lo único que no era muy cómodo, era el colchón. Pero el resto del hostel es super nuevo y super limpio. Lo recomiendo!

Stayed in the hostel for budget reasons and for the price it is great value if you are traveling alone. It is all clean and staff is helpful, you can borrow bicycle and snorcheling equipment there. Breakfast is included, it is tasty and big. If you dont mind sharing spaces then it is good choice. Not close to the beach though.
