Good location, very close to the beaches, supermarket nearby and most buses stop a few minutes away. It was the first hostel we stayed in on our trip and it was fine, looking back it wasnt the greatest - not always clean and the bunks were a bit crappy- but it was ok. Good atmosphere, nice common room place. And Breakfast was the best breakfast we have had in all of South America so far!

It was a great hostel to meet people at and had a party atmosphere, it was also only 5 - 10 minute walk from the beach. The downside was the cleanliness, bathrooms weren't great and seemed to be a bit of an animal problem...rat's, mice, flies and maggots!! Not good.
