    I had an excellent stay at this hostel, everyone who works there is friendly, there's breakfast which for me is a plus, the place is cozy and clean, close to the Malecón to take the guaguas and it’s walking distance from the beach, the pier where the tours leave to the haitises and Cayo levantado and Caribe tour where you take the bus to Santo Domingo. They also have pets, three dogs and a kitty cat.

    The only positive aspects are: location, breakfast offered by the owner (it was good, and that was kind from him, I appreciate it), availability of ingredients for free in the kitchen, the guests I met at my arrival, the hostal's cute dog (following us when leaving the hostel).

    Super nice guesthouse, it's perfectly located to move around the Samana Area and do day trips. Also the Caribe tours bus stop (to go to Santo Domingo or other places) is 10 minutes from the hostel. The rooms are private and pretty nice. Dodley is an excellent host, always helpful and smiling. Definitely the best place in Dominican Republic.

    The location was near to the Malecón and felt safe. We walked to most locations. There was access to Netflix and bikes if you wanted to use them. The accommodation was spacious and comfortable. There were only two of us, but the house could accommodate a family comfortably.

    Very friendly, helpful, uncomplicated hosts, who care touchingly, received the apartment instead of the booked single room due to renovation. For the cheap price you get clean, simple accommodation, with a good bed, decent toilet and a romantic terrace. Recommended for everyone who travels on a small budget and can do wit little comfort.
