Party hostel
Nice party hostel. Perfect for weekends or when you want to meet people. The owner & the staff are very cool. It gets a bit too noisy when you want to rest like people playing ping-pong at 11PM & also when you try to work during the day with loud music in the common areas.

Não conseguir durmi
Bom espaço e internamento porém quartos bagunçados muito barulho impossível durmo nesse local, apesar de barata as diárias, deixou a desejar nas prestações de serviços, tudo é cobrado na diria um simples cadeado pequeno pra trancar o armário e cobrado 2.00 por diária, e outros itens básicos não gostei não indico pra quem procura um conforto

Ótimo hostel. Localização excelente, perto de bares, restaurantes e supermercados. O Staff foi incrível e gostaria de manter contato com todos! Ficaria de novo por lá! Somente não senti muita segurança quanto ao quarto não ter chaves mas não tive nenhum problema em relação a isso!

turma muito educada. pessoal simpático. alguns problemas com infraestrutura. o café da manhã poderia oferecer uma alimentação mais alternativa e sucos naturais ao invés de artificiais. mas de todo modo uma ótima localização e atendimento.

Muy acogedor!!
Tomás el autobus desde la estación de Autobuses local en el centro de la ciudad (Plataforma A bus Núm° 330 ó 320) llegás a la terminal de la Lagoa da Conceicao de ahí tomás el Bus N°363 para Playa Joaquina y te deja justo en la puerta del Hostal!! Muy cerca de Supermercados y paradas de coles para visitar el resto de las playas. Buena ubicación!! :)
