The hotel has a great location and I really enjoyed the salsa lessons. It's also promising to see they are trying to improve the atmosphere. However, there are some very serious problems that need to be addressed. The room was extremely hot and smelled bad because there was no AC. Even more concerning, the door to my room did not lock, meaning anyone could walk in at any time. I hope they fix these major issues soon. More group activities would also be a nice touch.

This was one of the nicest hostels I’ve ever stayed! The beds were so clean, comfy & private. Being able to use the gym and other facilities like the sauna & pool at the other hostel was great too. All the people and staff were friendly, it was easy to meet great friends. I would definitely stay here again!
