In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Spotless rooms and daily housekeeping — Guests repeatedly note the cleanliness of both dorms and private rooms, with beds made and towels refreshed daily.
  • Heated outdoor pool — A standout feature rarely found at this price point, with several guests calling it a pleasant surprise.
  • Prime El Poblado location — A short walk to The Dancer's Park, restaurants, and the metro, with guests appreciating the easy access without the noise.
  • A hotel feel at a hostel price — Comfortable beds with privacy curtains and fans, plus quality breakfasts, make it feel more upscale than typical hostels.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Mixed reports on nightlife noise — While many guests enjoy the quiet, the location in El Poblado means some may find surrounding nightlife activity.
  • Dorm beds are shared — The cheapest option is an 8-bed mixed dorm, which may not suit travelers seeking privacy.
  • Not all rooms have air conditioning — Only the King Suite and Deluxe Double Room list air conditioning; dormitories rely on fans.

“Beautiful facilities, super comfortable beds. The breakfast was delicious, especially the omelette. The female-only dorm's low bunk against the wall offered lots of privacy. Towels were refreshed daily and they tidied my bed. Staff, especially Danny, went above and beyond. Huge kitchen and free BBQ to use.”
