I recently stayed at Sugar Hostel during a weekend trip. I must say, it exceeded all my expectations and made my stay truly memorable. The hostel's location is unbeatable. Situated close to the beach, it's within walking distance to surf points, public transportation, and local markets. I loved being able to explore the city easily, and the hostel's proximity to everything made my visit incredibly convenient. The hostel has a warm and inviting atmosphere and also features a co-working space. It was very easy to manage both my office work and weekend leisure activities.
Lovely new hostel, aesthetically however a few teething problems such as the waits on food - we waited over an hour for breakfast (a smoothie bowl) when we were the only ones ordering. This was consistently slow everyday. On a positive note, the staff are super friendly and outgoing. Most importantly, the place is clean and the beds are comfy. If you're a traveller looking for a social hostel vibe - this is not the place. Having a coworking space, you guessed it, most of the people staying were digital nomads - so didn't find there were any socials or many people willing to chat. Great location :)
Good value for the price. Good ambience. They have a laundry machine and a nice common area space with good internet that also works pretty well in the rooms. Good location and excellent service by the staff who go above and beyond to be helpful. I would recommend. My only personal issue, that not everyone has, is that the beds were not as comfortable as I would’ve liked, but again everyone sharing my room seemed to be okay with them. Overall I Would definitely recommend.
I didn't get to stay long, but I was treated exceptionally nice and the staff was great. Good English, very friendly and professional. The Manager got together a great group of young aspiring hospitality workers who thrive in their jobs. Since he runs the hostel in the same manner his staff follows the lead. It's a beautiful place, good equipped and for young professional who want to work from paradise the place to be. Thank you for your help and kindness, I cannot stress enough that you made my stay a beautiful experience.
Unfortunately our bathroom was very dirty and my bed was not very comfortable. When we wanted to Talk to the staff about a transfer to another City or missing toilet paper, there was no one to be found. The roof terrace was closed during my stay and according to hostelworld there should have been free Yoga which was not the case. Also the rooms can‘t be locked so you can just walk in there from the Street. Good AC in the rooms and Great Location close to the Beach! Keep in mind that the Train Tracks Are directly behind the Building if Thats something that bothers you!
