Excellent

Liked: I really appreciated the kindness of the staff when it came to all the issues and needs I had. Bryan, the manager, always helped me whenever I needed assistance with ironing my shirts for work and cleaning the blankets and sheets. He was also very friendly with me. Overall, an excellent experience at the hostel.

Amazing stay at Tequila Sunrise

Liked: Such a lovely hostel, with a chill laid back vibe, comfy beds with curtains and plugs and a shelf all by the bed which is very handy! Everything is also cleaned regularly and the showers are lovely with included fancy body wash and shampoo. The best bit though is the included dinner and breakfast which are always so delicious and such a good way to save money as a backpacker without having to cook yourself which is so lovely!
Disliked: Its a bit busy but nothing too bad and what you'd expect from a hostel like it

Bad

Liked: Location was ok
Disliked: The rooms smelled bad, other people's things were in the middle of the room, all the rooms smelled like dirty shoes and the bathrooms were dirty too. I arrived and there was no bed so I had to wait until the boy found one and I already had a reservation. I had arrived super late and tired and my bed was occupied.
