Great location right by the El Mercado, beds were comfy and spacious. Not very social and no lockers, but we just locked our belongings in our bags and it was fine, it’s a small hostel so it felt very safe. Definitely good value for money

I liked the interior of ooni but didn’t like the road going there. It’s hassle but I hope they build a proper route to the hostel.

No issues, good value for money and location, definitely worth it to save some money. However, not enough lockers for guests meaning there was no secure space to store valuables. Water dispenser on sight but you have to insert 1 PHP per small glass which we often didn’t have enough of to fill out bottles so was redundant.
