Staying at ITH Surf Hostel was an awesome experience from start to finish. The rooms were super clean, way cleaner than most hostels I’ve stayed in, and the beds were comfortable enough that you actually wake up rested. The whole place has that relaxed surf‑town vibe, but it’s also well‑kept and organized.The staff is incredibly friendly and genuinely cool — not just doing their job, but actually talking with guests, giving tips on local spots, and keeping the energy fun without being overwhelming. They make the place feBreakfast was simple but good, with enough options to start the day right before heading out to explore or hit the beach. It’s a nice touch that adds to the home‑like feel of the hostel.What really makes ITH stand out is the community vibe. Travelers hang out on the patio, swap stories, plan adventures, and sometimes even create content together. It’s the kind of place where you meet people from all over the world and end up exploring the city with them. The location is also perfect — close to the beach, food spots, and everything you’d want to check out.el welcoming the moment you walk in.Overall, ITH Surf Hostel is a great mix of comfort, cleanliness, and social energy. Perfect for nomads, surfers, backpackers, and content creators looking for a chill place to stay while exploring somewhere new.
