Great hostel

Heard many good reviews of this place from friends that have stayed there. A clean centrally located hostel close to Barrio San Pedro with internet and pool. The hostel also has a shuttle service that will pick you up from the airport.

Full house

Place looks nice. This area is OK to walk around in at night, a few restaurants close by.
It was very noisy due to people coming and going all night. Our room was close to the entrance, so people were always banging on the front door at night to come in. Unfortunately that's the only twin room they have.
$21/ twin room (bunk beds), hot showers outside the room. Room was very small. Had to leave a deposit to get towels and top sheets.
Lots of young people here.

Unique Quality: A swimming pool!!!! Although I never saw anyone use it... :)
