“Welcoming hostel in Samara”
+Annie and the staff are lovely and so helpful. Location is close to the beach, grocery stores, and local bus. The room was cleaned every day and had good A/C. Good kitchen facilities and public spaces to hang out. I especially loved the adorable kittens and mama cat!
−The only small suggestion I have is that the pillows could be better.

“Clean, safe, close to beach - but I just can not recommend staying here”
+Stellar location! Two blocks from the door to having your feet in the ocean. Walkable to restaurants, shops, grocers, and booking agents for activities. Street/bar noise was drowned out by the fan/AC in the private rooms. Room was very clean, fresh linens and towels every couple of days.
−Two big, glaring things: 1) They only accept cash - and only colones. This felt like a scam. I was charged well over 200.000,00 colones for a one week stay in a private room ($70+ USD/night). I never received any communication that this would need to be paid in cash. To top it off, the owner used an exchange rate from a year ago (current rate was 455/1, she used 470/1) and then told me that "business owners know the rates best". She told me that "this happens all the time" which leads to believe it's an intentional miscommunication on her part. Everyone in town accepts credit. 2) I opted for a private room in a hostel over a hotel because I love the vibe of a hostel - the community, the knowledge of local eateries/hot spots, the ease of access to activities, the communal areas... this place did not have a community vibe. They hosted a few long-term residents, who were very kind, but kinda... lived there? There was nothing about local activities or where to eat or what nearby beaches to travel to... on the first day I asked the owner about grocery stores and the answer was so convoluted, I didn't ask another one. 3) A few other small things that wouldn't have mattered if the other t

“I did not like their atitude about booking! They do not want to loose the profit!”
+It was clean.
−They charged me 12.000 colones, about 3.500 more than is listed on booking. We had no controller for air condition, and it was freezing!When I left the door open, the owner got mad! Their excuse was that guest brake/damage the controller Why they do not get deposit to avoid that?.🤔Me and my friend got sick due to that. The other guess like to be in cold, like freezer, and because of that, they ignored us,but we payed the same for our bed. My mattress was not comfortable, it was not strait, dented for long time use.Also we were told, that all the rooms are mixed, but on your site it mention choice for mixed or not. That was kind of weird.I would not go back!

“Alles bestens”
+Zentral gelegen in Samara. Coole Hostel- Atmosphäre. Basic, aber sauber. Samara hat einen wunderschönen Strand, der zu Fuß 5 Minuten vom Hostel entfernt ist. Annie hat uns gute Tipps gegeben.
−Wer ein Zimmer im Hostel bucht, weiß, dass er kein 4 Sterne Hotel bekommt. Daher alles super.
