Pros:

Very nice staff. Very helpful. The place is very cute

Cons:

The place is a bit dusty. It’s not a big deal, it’s just not the best after a long flight. It’s also in a bit of a noisy location, so beware light sleepers.

A very cute hostel with any amenity you need! Worth the price if you want to stay in casco viejo without breaking the ba
Pros:

The hostel is in a fantastic place, and when compared to neighboring hotel, a good price for what you get. They have tons of facilities, and I liked the social but not too party-ish vibe. The beds have curtains and charging ports, and the bathrooms are spacious enough where you don’t feel like you have to shower, clean, and change in one puddle. The staff are helpful (thanks Angel!) and happy to facilitate or give you any info you need

Cons:

The elevators can take a long time to arrive given the amount of guests, but honestly the stairs are just fine
