“Ok hostel for the money but can find better”

I got a bit of an aloof vibe from the staff at Bigfoot. The Hostel itself is ok but dorms are HOT and with just one pedestal fan per room for 10 beds is unacceptable, I left after one night.

Full Moon Volcano Hike

A travel blog entry by bmlequer

We went back to the hostel and drank whilst playing cards. The hostel was full of either American, Canadian or Austrailians. I miss the non English …
