“This hostel struck me as a winner for Puerto Escondido, it creates a social vibe without the intensity of a party hostel. The AC available overnight makes the rooms a haven, especially combined with well-designed beds and functional amenities; plus, I noted the added value of decent food and a great bar. With both coworking spaces and yoga, it's a balanced and well-thought-out option for travelers.”
