What a disappoinent. My friend and i are backpacking and staying in hostels so we didnt have great expectations, but this place failed on all levels. A cramped, stuffy airless room, main area that was locked in the morning so i couldnt get to my breakfast food after my run at 8 am, and an unfriendly matron running the whole thing. We decided to leave after one night instead of the three we booked. She charged us for the entire stay and only credited back 25 usd when i continued to protest.

The atmosphere from the Hostel is like Cabo Polonio's atmosphere, but it isn't clean place and without comfort. So, if you don't have any problems with cleanliness - enjoy it! The owner is a cool guy ready to help everybody.

A little slice of heaven. A beautiful hostel right on the beach. Lit by candlelight it captures the beauty and simplicity of Cabo Polonio perfectly. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to disconnect and completely relax. The owner was very kind and friendly, helping to make our stay there special.
