The place, the people, the staff, and the energy of the place were truly amazing! It was the best hostel experience I've had, and I've met so many great people here. The staff was amazing, and went above and beyond what was expected from them! Especially Sim and Augusto has made the stay at Sunflower to the great experience it was. I would highly recommend them to any other hostel that needs new employees, or any other company that is looking for loyal and customer-oriented employees.

Everyone was so warm and welcoming. The place was clean. It's a hostel where you can chill easily.... not hectic at all. One can definitely relax at it's own pace. I loved my experience with the hostel, the staff and of course the amazing people I met. would definitely be booking this hostel again.
