Located VERY far from city center, very dirty, with a strong smell of beer, no locks on the room doors, no security at all!! This is a good place to go to party and hang out drunk and wasted.. If you are looking for a place to visit punta del diablo and its beaches this is not the ideal place..

It\'s a bar. This is no critique, if you like partying, this is your hostel: it is precisely like living in a bar. It has a pool table and a ping pong one. You can cook your meals and eat as if you were eating out. Of course, if you go to sleep before 5:00 AM, you have to do it listening to very loud music. The location is not so good, it\'s hard to find it by yourself, though they offer to pick you up at any time (carry a phone and ring them: this is a must). It\'s a 20 min. walk from the beach.

No tiene acceso x tarjeta llave a las habitaciones como dicen, tampoco tienen llaves. Es una construcción precaria, fotos engañan.La limpieza deja mucho que desear, hay una sola empleada que hace muy bien su trabajo de limpieza. Tiene un bar, muy lindo, pero pasan música todos los días hasta las 5 am, que no permite dormir, xq la música se escucha en todo el hostel, si queres descansar olvidate, hasta las 5 no vas a poder dormir, el problema es que en ningún lado figura esto del bar.

Great hostel for Punta del Diablo. Pros: It's in the middle of the forest, so you really get the nature feeling there. Great place to meet people. You'll have parties and fun every night. There's no need to go somewhere else. Also, one of the cheapests in punta del diablo. Cons: Poor facilities. Not the clean type. Very far from the city center and beach. You'll have to walk like 4km (2 to go + 2 to return) everyday because this is where everything is located in punta del diablo.

Most of the people living at the hostel where spanishspeaking and as not mothertongue-spanish speakers, you felt as you weren\'t quite a part of this otherwise very cozy/hippie/party hostel. They have a live band every night at 1-2am - so if you plan on going to bed early, remember earplugs...
