A party hostel
Ideal if you are looking for an amazing time and doesn't really mind the noise from the bar that turns into a nightclub. You will definitely meet a lot of people as the hostel is really big, it more of a community. Big spacious rooms, they got cleaners every morning but it might wake you up, and they just added a powder room and a fitness center!Definitely worth your stay.

Party vibe!
If you are looking for a good time then this is definitely the place for you. It might be hard to get some decent sleep as the nightclub gets pretty noisy and loud at night. They have a decent pool with tanning beds and the area is always with music. Good location close to everything.

I did not have wifi The sheets and the room in general smelled bad, like a hospital. And the bathroom left to be desired because the shower had no support, that is, you took a shower on the floor and soaked all the bathroom. I would not go back.

Excellent location. Reasonably clean (although, not sure how wise it is, from a hygiene point of view, to have the shower IN the toilet cubicle :/ ). One regrettable aspect of the hostel was a particular member of staff who seemed to be thoroughly stoned
