    There was no fridge in the kitchen, but the kitchen was very well kitted out apart from that

    The staff was beyond friendly, it had a very cosy vibe. And a great location!

    Everything was great, except there wasn’t an electricity plug near the bed. Apart from that, all good.

    Beautiful hostel just a short walk to the centre of Mindo. It feels like it’s been transported out of rural Bali to the mountains of Ecuador!

    Unfortunately there was only one outlet in my room which was being used by another guest. Also I had to pay in cash because their card process didn’t work.

    Location was great, close to town. Super nice to sit on the hammock on the porch and enjoy the warmth. The person working the front desk was extremely kind and let me store my bag.

    A bit moldy in the bathroom but what can you do in Mindo. Not atmosphere at all but nice if you want to chill.

    Friendly dueña. Cheap and safe. 2-bed dorms!?

    I think it’s getting ready, most of the time the staffs are still maintaining the place. It must be beautiful in future. Next door and the property itself could be loud in the morning due to construction. Only 1 bathroom on the 2nd floor, the kitchen utensils are limited and especially when the staffs used them all. The public area is limited as well, it was also occupied by the stuff. Bad sound proof you could hear your neighbours talking or even whispering. Afternoon could be loud because it’s facing the football field. It could be better if the room has a table or chair. Oh yes the upper bunk is really close to lower bunk. So the lower bunk will always accidentally hit the head. Overall cute place but could be better 7/10

    The staffs are friendly. Only two beds in the room and most of the time I have my privacy. The place is very cute and I like the design with the plants.

    Nothing

    Great location! On the very edge of town so a three mintue walk into the center of town and three minute walk to be in the forest surrounded by only bird sounds. Offers a great breakfast to start your'e day :). Very modern and relaxing hostel. Owner is very kind and helpfull. Has been one of my favorite hostels!

    Very very friendly people, I had a nice stay and felt safe and comfortable. It was just hard to find. There is no sign on the house and the people around couldn't help me find it. Maybe it would be helpful if it is more present next to the other hotels and hostels.
