Nice new hostel, good pool
Nice hostel with a great pool. Looks like they are trying to get off the ground and get their name out there still, so it was fairly quiet. That is not a complaint though as it meant we had the pool to ourselves a lot of the time! Short walk (5-10mins) to the main hub of Huanchaco and to the beach and street food stalls. Would stay here again.

Quiet hostel next to the beach.
The facility was incredibly clean. The staff was very nice and helpful when asked for directions or transport options. Not like a normal hostel, quite quiet, comfortable accommodations. We stayed in the top room over looking the beach (not a dorm) - great sunset. 15 minute walk to central Huanchaco with restaurants along the way.

New hostel on the beach in Huanchaco
I visited during off-season so the hostel was very quiet. The room was clean, as were the bedsheets and toilet facilities. The pool's great too - would have been more fun had there been more people!
Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2017
