It was my second stay at Wax Hostel and once again it was perfect (okay the only minus is lukewarm/cold water in the shower but I can't deduct a star for that because I love this place so much). Everything was clean, staff was wonderful as always. I appreciate that now there are bed curtains, that’s a great upgrade! Wax hostel feels like heaven on earth to me because of the location and first of all because of super cozy and relaxing vibe. I’ll be back again for sure;)

It was near deserted, and the weather was bad when I stayed, but the hostel itself is well located, close to the beach and bus stop, and it was fully equipped and comfortable. In different circumstances, I would give it a higher rating.
