It was in the very center of Oranjestad, lots of things to do around. The lady working there was extremely nice. Good value for money as things are really expensive in Aruba. Communs areas were clean
It was not that clean. There was a lot of dust around the bed especially under the bed. It seems that part it's not cleaned that much. I couldn't stop the AC in the room as the remote was not working and it was very cold and no possibility to change the temperature of the water in the shower.

Loved that there was a kitchen stocked with utensils and cookware. The refrigerator had cold water but you had to fill it manualy. Not a big deal. I loved that the front door opened directly on to the sidewalk. El Gaucho which is a very good steak house was directly across the street. Very convenient. Olivias which has really great mediteranean food was next door to el gaucho. Que Pasa is right down the road and has very good food and a good bar.
The bed was too soft but thats just me.

Clean, comfortable, good WiFi, good security (not that you need it here), and decent location downtown— it’s an 8 minute walk to the bus stop that will take you anywhere you need to go. And if you’re a diver, it’s an 8 minute walk to the Mermaid dive boat (great company to dive with). Oh, and the pool is great!
Don’t lose your keys or leave them in the room, because if you come home late at night and find the door locked you might be stuck out there :/

Buena ubicación, cerca a la estación de buses central, cerca al boulevar de Oranjestad y avenidas principales. Aire acondicionado y cocina a disposición.
El personal no está en todo momento, si llegas y los encuentras para hacer tu check-in tienes suerte. La piscina tenía un poco de hojas y arena.

Easy to find. Great location to walk downtown and to the trolley. The property is nice with common areas and backyard.
The AC was difficult to control. Too hot or too cold. The walls were very thin to hear other guests engaging in what they probably thought was private activities
8.0
I liked the location and the fact that a bus stopped almost at the front door. Pool was ok with a shaded area. The room temperature at times had to be regulated because it was so cold.
The top bunk bed was difficult to climb up so I needed a chair to get to the top. I was not the only one who had difficulties also getting down from the last rung. The staff were not always available and hard to find in the morning. However, they were. helpful. I would have preferred to pay more and have a breakfast included int the price of the property.

Complete booking desaster!
The host charged upfront much more than confirmed by booking.com. i disagreed with the difference but confirmed the check in. At the check in the host said, that the booking is not valid. Wtf????
Host said, that the money has been returned to me which was a lie. I wanted to call police and within seconds the money was on my account.
The Host rips you off. Be aware of this betrayer!

Ficamos no estúdio e lá tinha uma cozinha com fogão com forno, pia, geladeira, pratos, copos, talheres e panelas. O que foi ótimo, visto que comer na rua é bastante caro em Aruba. O quarto e banheiro tb muito confortáveis e espaçosos… A localização fica bem central na ilha e como alugamos carro ficou bem fácil chegar nas praias. Adoramos nossa estadia lá.

5.0
-Close to the bus terminal in Oranjestad (like 8 minutes walking) and to a small beach next to the airport (Surfside beach, 20 min walking)
-Chinese supermarket like two blocks away
-Overall it’s a nice house, more like a shared apartment than a hostel; I was on the first floor where the shared rooms are
-The price they show on booking.com is not correct. After making the booking, they will send you a message saying that the price is actually 3% higher due to tax increase, but it was not updated yet on booking.
-Communication with the manager was very difficult via booking. Very slow replies or sometimes no reply.
-The use of lockers inside of the bedroom is not included in the price. They charge an extra 5 USD in case you want to use a locker which is very disappointing because the price of a bed in the shared room is already very high. I didn’t rent a locker which meant that I always had to carry my valuables with me - not the most comfortable situation.
-There is no warm water in the bathroom, not even a knob for it, only cold. There is no socket in the bathroom, so it’s not possible to use a hair dryer.
-Every day there were ants in the kitchen and the bathroom.
-The housekeeper one day took away one of my bags with food (fresh apples, almond milk, coffee etc.) from the fridge. When I told her, first she said she didn’t remember and after a while she said it was by accident. She replaced me some of the food the next day.
-Overall, I had the feeling that here they don’t care about their guests, but they just want to squeeze money out of them. Especially the owner was unfriendly and treated me without respect in our communication. I would not come back here. You will find much better value for money somewhere else.

Good location - close to downtown bus station, lots of good restaurants, and a few nice beaches. Great place to stay if you do not want to rent a car.
Terrible, terrible office management. Lots of ants, especially in the bathrooms. Stove needs to be lit with a match to work. Cutlery was rusty.
If there is any issue with your booking be prepared for incredibly unprofessional communication. Kept having issues with the office manager because the charge for my accommodation fee was being declined for suspected fraud. Called and emailed upwards of 10 times to provide an new card and sort it out right away, but I did not receive any response. Had to play broken telephone with the Hostel staff instead of receiving direct communication - so I had to worry about whether I would be asked to leave due to nonpayment for the second half of my trip. At one point I was asked to send a picture of my credit card, as the management did not want to go through the proper process on booking.com. I also offered to pay cash as long as I could receive request and confirmation of payment directly from the management and not the housekeeping staff. Since they could not do this and I refused to give images of my credit card the office eventually send a request through booking.com - but it too three whole days. Awful

The hostel is very nice ! It's basically a house with rooms, a living room and a kitchen, Mildred and her husband were great with us, very friendly ! The installations were always clean, especially the women bathroom was nice.
The dorms are a bit cramped and the matresses were not comfortable, but fine for a week !

Really nice hostel with a small pool and nice chilling area, met some really nice people. It had everything you needed and was located quite centrally. there were nice restaurants around but also grocery shopping was very convenient. Staff was also very great and helpful.

Everything comfortable, great AC, loves the pool. Woman working there was very friendly. Location was great for restaurants and grocery, and close to the bus terminal for the price.
No clear "reception" upon arrival and also wasn't sure what to do if I needed things during my stay. Was I supposed to knock on caretakers living space? It felt invasive. I tried calling and texting the listed number in Whatsapp but never got a response. No local info (maps, taxi numbers, etc). No place or line to hang up wet clothes after using the pool.

All People that work there are so amazing, they help you as much they can.
