Reviewer Type: Couple
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Very fun atmosphere at the hostel, and very helpful to get you onto the tours you want (make sure to book the ATM cave tour through them as they enter the site first in the morning). Also the tipsy tubing with Bubbles was a highlight, met a lot of fellow backpackers and broke the ice on our first day! Would defo recommend!
Negative: There aren’t a lot of bathrooms/showers for the amount of guests so try to shower off peak hours.
Summary: Very fun hostel!
