“ Sorry guys, this hostel is soulless and I found the staff to be extremely unhelpful. A Mexican airline lost my luggage for 8 days and they would not help me talk to the airlines (with my limited Spanish). I never had a hot shower in the 8 days I stayed and the noise in the building was excessive.... ”

“ Excellent hostel right in the historic area, great dorms, breakfast cant be beat, free dinner is good value. Staff are helpful once the language barrier is overcome and will organize trips, the wrestling tour is a must. ”

“ It is definitely a party hostel, so if you want a decent night sleep, this is not the place. The music in the hostel bars don't stop playing til 1am. But if you want to meet lots of like minded young people and party all night long, then come along. ”

“ Good if your looking for a party hostel. The building has an internal courtyard which means all the sound from bar (until 2am) flows right into your room. But if your planning on drinking until 2, then its prefect. And a great place to meet people. ”
