Overall the property was quite nice, large clean kitchen, quite social. The rooms were not clean however. Bathrooms were okay but the rooms were covered in dust and windows have dead bugs.

Great place to rest, grab plenty of sleep there and also to chill, they have an awesome rooftop and even a cinema where you fan watch a movie before going to sleep. The atmosphere wasn’t just there despite the hostel being at an eighty percent capacity. As for the location is pretty convenient if you pkan to visit the “centro” and “old city” sights. But if you plan to visit other stuff you may have to be ready to spent a bit on uber. Overrall really good hostel for me.
