Hostal Vive la Vida

Very pleasant place, about 10 minutes walk to the beach. Well organised and kept. Friendly and approachable staff and relaxed atmosphere.
The breakfast is not included but there's coffee provided in the morning (if you're quick ????).
The kitchen is very well equipped tho with massive fridge and even plastic containers which you can borrow for a day on the beach.
It has cool decor, nice paintings on the walls and good vibes.
I'd happilly stay there again and recommend it to the friends ????

Not a bad place everything is kept fairly clean . Unfortunately our room didn't have any windows and smelled very moldy if the A/C wasn't on. They only run the A/C at night and when it was on it was literally a freezer, but luckily there's 24hrs reception so you can always get the remote and turn it off once the room has cooled down. Location is great.

Actually Good for the cheap price and only if you're not picky, place was clean but not like super clean. Centric AF and really near the beach, staff was cool, the patio is nice, dorms are just ok. Wi-fi failing constantly since my second night here, the pool is 60cm deep and like 3X4 mtrs so its good if you want to refresh after a hot day.
No bedbugs/cockroaches found, yay.
Oh, yeah.. they only turn on the Ac after 11pm in the shared dorms.

the location seems convenient but its in a street with heavy truck traffic all day long. common areas are missing any comfortable furniture. shared dorms are not in good shape: small lockers, old mattresses, and noisy beds/sheets made it hard to find a moment of quietness.

Probably more suited to a younger, party crowd. I had booked a single room online- it turned out to be just a dorm room with no other occupants, and a thin sheet of wood separating it from the neighbouring dorm. The sheet of wood didn't connect all the way to the ceiling, so it was effectively like I was sharing the room with strangers- who talked solidly until 7am. In the hostel's defence, when I checked out early I was refunded the two nights accommodation without question. Altogether, I would recommend it for groups of younger travellers favouring cheapness over quality, but it isn't a place for a solo traveller or someone who wants privacy and quiet.

It was so nice to stay here, the vibe, the people, the location everything was nice.

Not as described. Cleanliness not up to par. Friendly staff though. Cheap. Close to food
