Beach breakfast and location good. Staff were friendly However hostel could do with some upgrades. Room was dark and hard without much ventilation and wasn't cleaned properly, door of dormitory did not auto lock so was often left open when people forgot to lock it. Mattress covered in plastic so any pleasant to sleep on

Pior hospedagem da vida
Pousada extremamente suja, paredes com infiltração, roupas de cama e travesseiros com cheiro de usadas, mal cuidada. Ficamos em um quarto para 6 pessoas, com cheiro muito forte de mofo, ar condicionado não funcionou, travesseiro com traça e banheiro com mofo no azulejo. O único ponto positivo foi a localização na beira da praia.

O atendimento foi bem hospitaleiro mas os quartos deixam muito a desejar. Fiz reserva privativa de 3 quartos e nenhum dos 3 agradou os hóspedes. Um dos quartos estava com a fechadura quebrada e precisamos solicitar a troca que foi feita para outro quarto que tinha cheiro forte de mofo. O quarto que hospedou um casal tinha uma cama que não era confortável além de a descarga está quebrada. Solicitamos conserto e foi feito apenas no dia seguinte. O terceiro quarto tinha um lençol aparentemente sujo com uma mancha de sangue. Os banheiros não contavam com sabonete nem para lavar as mãos e as toalhas e lençóis não tinham boa qualidade. A única coisa boa de fato é a vista do café da manhã. O café da manhã porém é simples é servido em bandejas estilo escola de filme americano. Não recomendo e não vale o custo benefício.

A estadia foi bem agradável, o lugar é bem simples, mas organizado; não há estacionamento, o carro fica em uma rua ao lado do hostel, mas foi tranquilo....a água do mar de frente do hostel não é própria para banho, eles deveriam informar isso, é uma água bem escura e com cheiro de esgoto

A estadia não poderia ter sido melhor! A localização do hostel é excelente, bem pertinho do centro histórico, café da manhã maravilhoso (várias opções de frutas) servido na praia. Limpeza dos quartos e banheiro realizada todos os dias, acomodações confortáveis. Recomendo de olhos fechados. Parabéns a toda a equipe, principalmente a Priscila, que faz tudo para nos sentirmos em casa, e atende a todas as nossas expectativas. Muito obrigada por tudo Geko Hostel!

Credo debbano investire qualche soldo nella ristrtturazione. A parte la colazione sulla spiaggia il reato lascia un po desiderare. Un bagno per due stanze da 12 letti. Condizionatore terribile. Internet scadende. Insomma non ne vale la pena.

A comecar pelo fato de eu ter que usar uma incomoda pulseira achei isso bem ruim. O quarto nao possui armaruos para guardar meus pertences em seguranca. Nao tem escada para subur nas beliches e inecitavelmente voce tem que colocar o pé no colchao debaixo para subir. O hostel nao tem ferro de passar roupa e a "cozinha" é bastante inapropriada. Dei muita sorte de ter pessoas bacanas bo quarto e isso fez com que a experiencia nao fosse um desastre. Quanto ao cafe da manha... o fato de ser na praia com hm visual incrivel me deixou satisfeita embora tenha sido muito basico. Mas penso em como deve ser desagradavel se tivesse ido em dias frios. . Espero que minhas criticas sejam entendidas e absorvidas de forma construtiva para que a experiencia dos proximos hospedes sejam mais satisfarmtorias. 3 das 5 pessias que se hospedaram comigo era a primeira experiencia em hostel e detestou. As outras duas tbm nao gostaram mas conhecem outros hostels e sabe que a experiwncia pode ser melhor. Boa sorte pra voces!

Chegamos de madrugada 4h devida a chuva, o recepcionista nos recepcionou muito bem, foi simpático e cordial. As camas e travesseiros ja estavam forradas com lencois e fronha e quarto limpo. Não tem estacionamento, mas o local é muito socegado, entao deixamos na rua ao lado do hostel. Durmimos, em um quarto com 4 beliches e banheiro, senti falta de uma porta separando os quartos... para nossa privacidade mesmo. O café da manha é servido no horario certo, porem não fiquei satisfeita com a qualidade dos alimentos, pão estava seco e o bolo tambem. No domingo serviram o café atrasado. A recepcionista, foi muito cordial, atenciosa e nos ofereceu o melhor passeio de barco super recomendo netuno II, custo um pouco mais caro, mas o barco é muito seguro, funcionarios treinados... Sugestão de melhoria seria qualidade dos alimentos no cafe e rede Wi fi que só pega na reepcao e nao nos quartos. De resto foi tudo perfeito!
