This was a nice hostel in a very good location right on the Lagoona. The Sandboarding & Dune Buggy trip out of the hostel was excellent and very good value for money. I had a thoroughly enjoyable stay here.

Very central hostel looking out on lake. Dorms were fine, fairly standard but cheap. Definitely picked up insect bites at this hostel but can't be sure if it was due to sand or bed sheets. We took sandboarding tour with this hostel and we choose slightly more expensive board rental. They neglected to tell me with this option I was expected to have boardi.g experience, which I did not. There was no lesson just parked at top of dune and let you off! Other option was simply sliding on ur belly.

Not too bad Hostel next to the oasis. But everybody can just walk into the rooms and the lockers in the rooms are small and mostly taken. Only two showers (for the man) for the whole hostel. But everything is clean and there is hot water. Beds are a little wobling, if the person on top or below moves the other person is shaken around in the other bed. But a good enough hostel for one or two nights.

Groovy little backpackers with the most welcoming staff. Opportunity to either party hard or just chill. Amazing facilities!

Nice place with good tours for sandboarding. The restaurant was a bit overpriced but good food.

Great location. Toilets are awful, they stink and the showers are in the same room as the toilets that the restaurant uses with a tiny curtain so no privacy.

The tours were overpriced compared to the other hostels and tour operators in the area. It was low season so there was not that much to do. The rooms were a little hot. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Good food.

The staff were lovely and very helpful, and always made sure we were safe, even on nights out. The wifi was excellent compared to other places we had been in Peru. The restaurant serves great food at a reasonable price. The only problems we had were that there was no hot water and my boyfriend got a lot of bed bug bites. I would still reccommend this hostel to anyone though, I really enjoyed my time there! Make sure you do the sandboarding!
