“Great for Young Travellers”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 21, 2012 via mobile

I stayed in this hostel for 4 nights with my boyfriend and it is such a great hostel in the perfect location for nightlife and the beach. There is so much going on, day and night, and evening meals for about $6-8 which is great! The only complaint is that the dorm is bit shabby with uncomfortable, creaky beds but it's not a big issue if you're here to party! You'll meet lots of great people from all over the world and have a lot of fun here!

Stayed August 2012, traveled as a couple

“Great Time With Great People”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 21, 2012

I am very glad we decided to stay in this hostel out of all south beach hostels. It was my first hostel stay experience. I truly loved it. The staff working here is so friendly and ready to help you with anything and everything even in the middle of the night. They provide a towel and a pillow at the time of your check in. They provide you with breakfast ( coffee and bagel) every morning. One will meet people from different countries and ready for different activities. We ended up making great friends in this hostel. The hostel suggests various activities, from city tours to night club promotions, plus you can recommend what you would be interested in and they would help you with it. To top it all it isn't far from the beach (10 minutes walk).

“Best place - in the Grand Scheme of things!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed June 10, 2012 via mobile

I think this hostels draws many different cultures from around the globe: Asia, Africa, Europe (east and west), North Americans and South Americans, and Austrailians. If The United States is a melting pot it doesn't show here: Fluent French is spoken, as is Swedish, Korean...

Even if you decide not to stay here, stop by as there are group outtings at night; and check to see what kind of tours/trips they offer.

“Bikini Hostel Family”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed May 23, 2012

This hostel was way over what I expected.
Check in took 3 minutes, got a pillow, bed sheets and a towel.
had a locker so i could lock down all my expensive, important things.
the crowd was mixed, some days Australians took over, some days Brazilians took over.
Became very close with people. There was a chef that made dinner for 5 dollars each night.
pretty close to the beach, about 10 minutes walking and even less than that to reach Washington Ave, where the nightlife happens.
There was a jacuzzi, a ping-pong table, a pool table, TV in each room and a great kitchen.

Room Tip: All the rooms are great
