This palafito haven strikes a number of balances: affordable yet stylish, hostel-like yet family friendly. The ground floor houses two four-bed dorms with lockers, central heating and private bathrooms, a communal kitchen and sea-view terrace with BBQ. Upstairs are hotel-quality private rooms hung with local art. Peppered with rescued antiques (theater seats, transistor radios), the hostel represents one of Castro's best style-for-value ratios.
