    Mani (staff at the hostel) was so sweet and accommodating, he gave us a lot of recommendations for San Lucas and all of them were excellent. The hostel is very well situated in a calm street but very near everything (walking distance).

    The kitchen on the upstairs room didn’t work so we had to go down stairs to cook.

    It was very comfortable, the people are super nice, and it was very organized!

    Mani is such a great host. Always extending himself to accommodate everything, I’m so pleased with not only the location but how quiet and peaceful the neighborhood. It’s my new home away from home! Gracias Mani, Nos vemos el Miercoles

    Nothing to mention here.

    The environment, attention, the rules for sanity socialite, the specific rule for the noise, and the breakfast. The rules for the check-in and check-out. The place is in front of the convenience store and near the city center. The cleaning is a serious point for the manager, and I really appreciated it.

    No bath mat in the bathroom dormitory so sometimes had to clean the floor before using it

    Love this Hostel :) I stayed there 3 times when I was visiting Baja California. I had so much fun there and I met amazing people with whom I did a road trip for a week :). I went back there everytime I was in Cabo :). The atmosphere is chill and very easy to meet people as a solo traveller. It is not a party hostel. The breakfast is so tasty and the owner is very friendly . The housekeeping staff clean everything thoroughly . The location is great, 10 mns to get to the port. I highly recommend this place.

    The mattress was a bit soft for my liking. That maybe is probably just my personal preference as I like more support. They could get newer pillows, you can feel the filling inside is all broken up, made it a bit uncomfortable. Bring earplugs, cars outside can get loud if you are not used to city living.

    The location. It is at a very convinent location. Mani, the owner and Alfredo are very friendly and accomodating. The place is also very clean and safe. Breakfast was good, different everyday.

    Sometimes loud at night with vehicles and dogs barking

    Very affordable, comfortable accommodations. I stayed in a private suite which was clean and the AC was good. A little loud as the hotel is right downtown Cabo so bring your earplugs! Friendly staff and yummy breakfast.

    There is nothing in the bed to put my phone on, I was afraid it would fall during the night.

    It’s in a very good location and the environment is very nice. The bed was comfortable. I just stayed for very short night before my flight and the price and comfort were just right.

    The only problem is the noise from the street, as well as the fact that the room is adjacent to the reception.

    I stayed in the double room and it was perfect, it's really big and great value for money. There's also a bathroom right next to the room. The breakfast was also really good.

    This was like visiting your favorite relatives in paradise that have all kinds of ideas about what to do, what beaches are best to visit, what tours are most fun, I loved it. Being at Sophia felt like I was with friends right away. It was a perfect respite on my way to studying Spanish in the mountains to enjoy the crazy vibrancy of this Beach town and Sophia is Right In the old town more interesting than Mega complexes further out and just a few blocks from the harbor. Plus the coffee they make for you in the morning is delicious. I recommend it!

    I only stayed one night that’s the only thing I didn’t like.

    It was clean, quite in a great location. The kitchen was in excellent condition. The roof patio was nice and the OXXO next door was convenient for buying snacks an beer. The pancake breakfast was delicious.
