Simply nice.
A nice hostel. it is quite literally a 30 second walk from the beach - if you walk slowly! A nice touch having breakfast included in the morning and having use of the kitchen throughout the day - we were able to keep costs down. There's a mini supermarket, 2 doors away. We had a room with private bathroom - the bathroom could do with some maintenance. But all in all, we enjoyed our stay here. It is a backpackers hostel, not a hotel - just bear that in mind.

Buen lugar en Farallón.
Lo mejor fueron Florencia, Marcos y Emiliano encargados del Hostal. La habitación es amplia y cómoda pero no hay agua caliente y, como los otros hostales de la zona, no tiene TV. Està en la calle principal y a metros de la playa. Hay minimercados y para comer cerca. Lo que no me gustó no tiene que ver con el hostal sino con el lugar: después de las 21 no hay donde ir a tomar ni comer nada. Está en Farallón y no en Playa Blanca.

Endroit simple mais très sympathique. Décoration gaie et cuisine avec l'équipement pour se faire à manger. Toutefois douche minuscule et eau froide seulement.
