Pros:

There was great communication from Said (he warned me the terrace had been affected by a storm, and communicated when he had to go out for a couple of hours etc). The price was cheaper than others in the area, but I was also the only guest, so had my own room for the same price! It had an amazing location obviously and I'd recommend staying a night if you have the chance, rather than do a day trip as most people did. There's a very friendly dog called Wilson, who was great and came for a walk with me! Overall, very glad I stayed!

Cons:

Nothing.

Beautiful hostel, incredible location and terraces, perfect host!
Pros:

Incredible location, amazing views, great host and definitely the man for hiking advice!

Siad’s hostel is in the perfect location for the cascades and exploring the valleys.. right at the top of the village on the path to the cascades, the last tall building with two terraces with incredible views across the valley and mountains.

You park in the village then head over the bridge and through the winding streets, heading towards the cascades and it’s the last tall blue building. Bit of a walk so only somewhere for back packs and bags you can comfortably carry up steps!

My room was clean, comfortable, great storage and amazing view out the window and on the balcony outside.. not en-suite but the toilet was clean and the showers powerful and wonderfully hot. Shutters to keep the room cool and plenty of blankets for the mountains nights.

The terraces are insane, best views you could imagine, eating, drinking coffee or chilling with the sounds of the cascades and birdsong constantly around you.. the top terrace is the perfect place for the evenings and to cool off and have a snooze after a hot day.

Best possible location for seeing the waterfalls, and perfect for popping to all the little cafes under the trees next to the water.

Breakfast was simple but great, plenty of coffee, and Siad was a perfect host, incredibly accommodating, and with the best advice for hikes around the area and how to find the waterfalls.. i probably should have asked to be guided as I didn’t find the 7th but the longer hike as well was amazing

With good WiFi I would have loved to be able to stay and work from here!

Amazing hostel, great host. Not a 5 star drive to door hotel.. but one of the best hostels I’ve stayed at and it feels like a place in paradise.

Cons:

Nothings!

Great place to start your walk to the waterfall
Pros:

Nice staff and service, the room was clean and comfortable.

Cons:

The parking is not part of the hostel, we must to leave car far away of, and also never mention that we need to walk around 10 min upstairs to arrive at the place, we had heavy luggage it was complicated.
The bathroom is outside of the room and the shower area is to share without doors

Pros:

I was surprised how good this place was being the furthest on the way to the waterfall! It was worth every single step. And it was easy to access even at night.
I appreciate the owners hospitality and friendliness. Mr. Said is just like a brother that inspires respect and safety, qualities that should be felt in a place like this along with cleanliness and comfort.
The room is very clean and super quiet with windows closed, and the beds are very comfortable and warm.
I would suggest eating in for the better quality and prices and the very nice view.
In brief, for a single traveller or a group, it is a unique experience that one will not find at the centre of the village.

Cons:

Absolutely nothing. I was warned the monkeys would be making noises but I heard very little. Said's dog Wilson does a good job at keeping them away.

Pros:

Everything was great. Said met us at the bus station and walked us to the hostel. He was very friendly and helpful during our stay. We extended our trip in the end and we got to see the monkeys playing around the hostel. Said was always there when you needed him and was happy to cook you dinner if required. The rooms were nice and cosy, the 6 bed dorm being a good size.

Cons:

Nothing, everything was great. Thanks Said!
