The hostel is brand new with very nice design and great atmosphere. The owners are amazing and very helpful. The rooms are super comfortable and very clen same as bathrooms. The kitchen is very well equipped. And location is also nice close to restaurant and not far from beach. I will definitely recommend and I hope to come back.

There is a nice area where you can hang out and chill. Also the possibility to cook. There are enough bathroom facilities and you even have the option to include breakfast. It is very close to the beach which is nice on a hot day. Would definitely come back!

Dora, the hostess, is going to take great care of you. She showers you with motherly love and makes you feel cared for. Lively yet peaceful, carnival and calm coexist in the hostel. Right next to the beach, has great options for food nearby. Felt safe for myself and my belongings throughout my stay. Arica feels much better when you stay here.

The hostel has a nice garden and common area, kitchen, beds are quite comfortable. It's located close to the morro hill and to a big supermarket, 30 min walking from bus terminal. The staff was friendly and helpful. It was more or less quite. It's nice and safe atmosphere.

Nice place If you are looking for a quiet hostel, look for something else. They is a bar in the hostel. So it can be noisy late at night. There is a beach near the hostel. The hostel is far from the center but 15min walking from the bus terminal.

Very quiet and cozy place to stay near the beach. Far away from noisy streets and highways, but close enough to the town centre. Hospitable hosts who know some English. Rooms are spacey enough. Nice place for those seeking safe and comfortable accomodation, and yet to stay on a budget.
