Party Central

The guys at Mondo totally rock the craziest parties ever. I managed to make it nearly seven days at the Mondo until the trusty liver told me it was time to move on. My girlfriend and I came on Smokin´ Sunday and then partied though Martini Monday, 80s Power Hour (awesome, never seen so many backpackers in spandex!) and the cowboys, hip hop, and bananas party. Cool managers and owners, we had a private, very backpacker, simple but comfortable and clean, communal everything.

There are positive and negatives to this hostel. Kitchen use is free and plenty of seats surrounded the large wooden table. Hang out areas in a small garden outside and hammocks on the upstairs porch are great common areas. The lively bar is the place to go early in the evening to connect with other travelers. Two bikes are available for short rides to the grocery store and such, but not for the whole day. The laid back, knowledgeable owner from the states makes everyone feel welcome and is full of advice. He showed us up to the dorms on the second floor. The only way to get up is through the bathroom and shower area. My pack almost snagged the towel of a guy brushing his teeth. The dorms are typical bunk beds crammed into a room without screens on the windows. For a single traveler looking to connect with other travelers this is a tolerable hostel. Most groups left after one night because better deals are available in motel rooms. Being a guest of the hostel is not a requirement for hanging out in the bar. Check it out and decide for yourself.
