As the name says it's more calm and chill at the Hostel but I absolutely loved it. One of the cleanest hostels I've ever seen and the staff is so helpful and nice. They helped me plan my trip and booking bus tickets and were just lovely people. There is a well equiped kitchen and free coffee/tee. Chillout is located in a safe neighborhood with bars and restaurants. The only con I have is that the bunkbeds make a lot of noise when moving.
