This hostel was the best hostel me or any of my friends have stayed at. We made friends with the wonderful bartender, Franny. She was such a joy to be around and I would come back just for her. She had wonderful service and made our drinks wonderfully. 10/10 would recommend.

The service at check-in was friendly, but the place was not as advertised. They were doing renovations so the pool was not open, nor was the bar and the courtyard was a mess. I was not informed about this upon booking nor upon check-in, very disappointing. Also, the beds came with one thin sheet, that's it.

I enjoyed staying here and would defiantly stay again. However the walls are paper thin. I had to bang on the wall and knock on the door to the people next door multiple times.

We was greeted to the room by a roach(killed it). They would not provide a blanket, hand towels or wash cloths for the room. Pool music was very loud, nightly to10 or 11pm. Very old rooms.

Great place, very clean, convenient. This was our second visit to Poshtel and we loved it. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Location location, closes to everything in town which we loved it since we didn’t have a car and walking in town was great. We will definitely go back! Thank
You.
