Kona Tau

This place has a ton of potential with the understanding that it is hard to get resources on that island. I just feel that the ownership could have a little more pride. The first 2 night I had no hot water. There was no screens on the windows, no fan, no air-conditioning. The sheets were stained and dirty. The blanket stunk like dog. I guess you get what you pay for but other than that a beautiful place and tons of potential.

Overall, this hostel was very basic, however it did the job and allowed me to explore the island from a decently central location for a decent price. I didn’t speak Spanish and the staff didn’t speak English, but were still trying to be very helpful. My shower didn’t have hot water, and there wasn’t much of a social vibe at the hostel, but I was able to meet people at the cultural dancing shows in town which was nice. Internet was very patchy, but this is the case across the island too.

overall had a nice stay. as it's basically one room, the atmosphere is really dependent on the people you're with, otherwise it's pretty non existent. Staff were incredibly nice, although it was hard actually finding them. Location is quite good, simple walking distance from the airport and pretty much anything else you might want to do in town.
