Hostel Danny is very simple and could have a better accommodation (bed, Berliners, towels) and better breakfast for the price charged. The location is great (1 block away from Av. Del Libertador. The owners of the Hostel are very kind .
The CEO of the hostel, Danny and his wife are extremely friendly, they make every effort to make your stay at home. They also provide private transportation to the airport and bus stations at very reasonable prices. We enjoyed our stay very much.
The staff are all incredibly friendly and welcoming, as well as providing local information and letting us store our bags after check out. The beds were comfortable, the shower very good. There are nice social spaces to sit in. It had a very nice feel to the place. It was more like a hotel but with the more basic and relaxed feel of a hostel. Great central location. Very clean everywhere. Good price. The walls are quite thin so it can be a little noisy with guests coming and going but thats to be expected anywhere. The included breakfast is a great bonus (croissants, cereal, fruit, toast, hot/cold drinks etc). We really loved our time here and would highly recommend it

O Hostal é bem localizado. A equipe é atenciosa. As acomodações são simples, mas tem excelente custo x benefício. O café da manhã tem o básico.
Quarto limpo. Roupa de cama limpissima e cheirosa. Aquecimento nota 10. Cafe simples, mas fresquinho. Localização maravilhosa. O dono sempre disposto e interessado em ajudar em passeios e restaurantes. Foi nos buscar e levar no aeroporto.
Siamo stati benissimo ed il merito è tutto di Danny e sua moglie, sempre disponibilissimi, accoglienti e sorridenti! Molto comoda anche la posizione vicina alla via principale.
Desde antes de mi llegada se preocuparon de mi hora de llegada, si tenía las facilidades de movilización. Ely es súper amable, atenta, hospitalaria. Gracias por una experiencia tan bonita!
Muy lindo, tanto el lugar como el hostel. Acogedor, muy limpio, el personal muy agradable y atento. Me gusto mucho, se siente uno como en casa. Gracias
A estadia e o atendimento da equipe foram excelentes, todos se mostraram muito simpáticos e atenciosos. O local era seguro e muito próximo ao centro, o que facilitou muito a alimentação e os planos para os demais dias de passeio turístico.
