amazing hostel experience!

capybara cafe refreshing pool nightly campfire central location
I had such a blast! the capybara cafe is super unique. I mean, where else can you hang with capybaras (they are so chill)? the pool was definitely a highlight, so refreshing after exploring, and the campfire each night made it really easy to meet people. plus, it's just a short walk to the walking street, so location is perfect.
The pathway to the bungalows could really use some lights. It gets pretty dark at night, and i was always a bit nervous walking to the toilets.
