The place overall is really nice however, the staff definitely need some serious customer service skills. Starting with how long it would actually take the community truck to pick us up from Lanquin. We waited for almost 4 hour when they said it should only approx 45 min. We finally decided to pay a private car to takes to the hostel and once we arrived, this local Curley hair girl was very unpleasant for no reason. Some of the bar staff were the same, but we made the best of the trip
Hey! Thanks for the review. Sorry to hear that you had an unpleasant experience with our staff. In the future we will work on improving this issue. As per the waiting for a truck, another issue we will be looking to resolve. Mountain roads can be crazy, and because some of the roads are being paved right now, travel time gets worse. The paving of the roads will make for quicker transport in the future. Cheers.

I was originally going to stay one night but due to the overall good experience, I stayed a total of 4 nights. Pros: good and friendly staff, 10 min to the a beach, decent breakfast and very good ambience. Cons: cannot get clean towels for each day but every 5th day, some of the rooms were a bit smelly, but nothing outages, business and daily hours were a bit strict. I would definitely stay there again! :)
My apologies, we seem to have had a miscommunication regarding FREE white towels & bed linens. We provide FREE fresh white towels and bed linens to each guest at check-in. We also provide FREE fresh linens every week to guest staying longer than a week. However, we also offer option to get a fresh clean white towel anytime on demand for $2 switch out fee. Hope this helps clear up the miscommunication. You were a very special guest to us and we look forward to your return in May!

It was a good stay but nothing out of the ordinary. For being a Friday night (my stay) the place was very quite and with no activities to do or places to go.

I arrived at approximately 11:30 pm on a Wednesday and upon arrival I was told to be very quite as not to weak up any patrons. Upon asking the front desk about atmosphere or suggestion, I was told all ends at 11 pm or earlier. If you are only staying for a night and would like peasefull and quite please, this is the place for you.

Overall, it was a very good stay. Draw backs, I had an ocean view and being on South Beach, it was not a very good idea as I could hear the party going on at all hours of the night and day.

Worse experience ever, of all the hostels that I have stayed in Latin America in the past 10 years.

It was a very good and clean facility to stay unfortunately with no atmosphere in my personal opinion. If you plan to simply relax, I would strongly recommend it then. If however, you plan to socialize or attempt to have a good time, this hostel is not the place. Would I go to this hostel again? Absolutely, but not enjoy but rather to relax only.
Hello, thank you for taking the time to review our hostel. We are working on having regular hostel events and are always seeking input from our guests. We hope on your next visit that we show that our hostel will have more of a lively vibe. Safe travels! - David, Guest Services Supervisor

The staff was simply amazing. So much so that I personally overlooked the other small issues with the hostel

Of all the hostels i have stayed in, this specific hostel was a bit too big in terms of the actual size of the hostel. Therefore, I personally found the hostel to be more of hotel atmosphere and where most of the guests were doing their own thing (not that there is anything wrong with it) vs the atmosphere that I'm used to (people being more social).

One of the best hostels I have ever stayed at, very clean, great atmosphere and the staff (specifically Melanie) was simply amazing.

Overall very good value, location, clean and the breakfast was definitely a plus. In terms of staff and security, I did not know that I had lost my wallet the previous evening and upon ordering breakfast the following morning; to my surprise my meal was delivered with my wallet untouched. :)

To begin with, their description is pretty accurate. Very good hostel and for the price, you simply cannot ask for much more. The staff was really nice, good location, they offer lots of activities around town or out of town and you get breakfast serve every morning. Over all, I would definitely recommend OX Base Camp. I was going to stay a single night but base on my overall experience, I decided to stay an extra night.

The owner, Daniel and his staff were simply awesome! They were very helpful in give us tips were to sightsee, eat, party, etc. While were simply staying overnight as our connection was not until 7 pm the following day, Daniel with great pleasure allows us to remain at his facility a number of hrs past the checkout time. The location, cleanliness, price, etc was simply the added bonus in our case! I highly recommend this place.

It was clean, had an awesome swimming pool, pool table on the deck and few other simple things that I enjoyed. One of them is that I got a pizza delivery. As for the location, it is about 3-5 min drive from downtown thus a cab has to be taken quite often. Not a big issue as they are everywhere and the fare is only $2 USD.
