"I loved this hostel! It's directly across from the ADO bus station and the collectivo stop, so very convenient. The grocery store is right next door and shopping is just down the street. There were food trucks out front in the evenings and a restaurant just outside the front door. I as a solo female traveler felt very safe there and also while walking around the local area. The rooftop pool, workout area, kitchen and eating area were amazing! I could spend all day there. The room I stayed in...

"The hostal is suuuper clean, the staff were lovely and super helpful, and the general vibe is great for a solo traveller. They have activities you can join to meet other people and the upstairs bar is really nice and close, especially if you like latin music! It may be a little loud if you are only looking to have a night's sleep, but nothing earplugs wouldn't solve. For me, ot encouraged me to just walk upstairs and have some fun 😅.. I was only going to stay foe a few days and ended up...

3.5 star property
6.6 out of 10, (1053)
"Secluded and great for quiet relaxing vacation. The 2 restaurants food is okay it’s better to just go to buffet for food. But restaurants give you the opportunity to dress a little better. Buffet is good with fruit and salad. The pool is spotless and inviting. Service is usually pretty good. Waterpark would be amazing for families but the floor in it needs renovation, it made the water look dirty and I did not go in. They maintain it and water is clean but I can’t get over the look of the floor...
