    Very friendly staff, nice hangout area, the kitchen was okay, nice café downstairs and good work/study area. One night a random drunk guy walked in the area and the staff took it very seriously. Even though we barely noticed it they informed us...

    La proximité avec la plage d’amarillo, la gentillesse des volontaires et de la gérante ! Le lieu en lui-même est atypique et très chill !!! La présence des singes dans les arbres voisins est un chouette plus également !
