Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The hostel is amazingly clean, it looks great and I felt at home there. The kitchen is perfect to cook, and the space with the tables / sofa is perfect to both work, have its own space, or meet new people. So far this was the best hostel I’ve been to, a perfect balance between comfort, socialize and keep its safe zone. Will definitely come back ☀️
