Agartha Hostel and Camping

personale molto gentile e disponibile, struttura tranquilla e in un bel posticino

While this may have been a good place to stay at one point, I wouldn’t recommend it now for a few reasons detailed below - Cleanliness: I get that this is hostel life, but the condition of the hostel was very poor. There was food all other the table and kitchen, which led to more bugs entering the hostel. He said he was going to clean our bathroom, but that never happened. My friend ended up sick the entire time we were there, but she’d feel better when we left the hostel for the day and all her symptoms cleared up after we checked out, so there may be mold in the walls that was contributing to how she was feeling. Location: This is a 40 minute uphill walk from town. The cheap transportation the owner had in prior comments stopped working with him (as he said himself), so the only option is calling a taxi or walking. The taxi ride is around $4 per person each way. This added up quick, offsetting the cost we were saving by not staying close to town. We were really looking forward to this stay due to the community & family feel mentioned by prior guests, but we were left disappointed.

this place is more like a guest house than a hostel, as the host is living there as well. comfy beds and decent kitchen, calm and safe location. the host seemed to be annoyed by some guests and talked about it with other guests, which made me feel weird.
