I came in at the last minute and really appreciate how everyone was friendly. Still, overall, The Person I appreciate the most would be Ms.Flor🌷🌸🌹❤️. On her off days, she lets me tag along with her To Visit the fountains in Manitou. We also ended up doing the Pull Pit mountain Trail and The Pikes Peak Train Ride, which I would highly recommend trying out. Overall Great time and highly recommend the stay 🙏🤌

As usual, I had an amazing time here! I had so many wonderful conversations with different travelers. The group trip to Bishop’s Castle was even better than I had anticipated! I’ve been there before, but the people on this trip made it even more enjoyable. Plus, the castle had new additions since my last visit! I want to give a special shoutout to Flor and Thiago for cooking an incredible dinner with steak, bread, and yucca potato. Sai kept the bonfire going and had some thought-provoking conversations. Many more I could mention I just don’t remember everyone’s names ! Thanks for making my trip unforgettable, Rad Hostel! Can’t wait to come back again

A highly recommended place!

The hostel is very nice. Spacious rooms with private bathrooms and comfortable beds. They serve breakfast and offer various activities. The only downside is that you need your own transportation because it's a bit far from everything.

One of the nicest hostels ive stayed in. The vibes are immaculate. Quiet clean rooms, the remote check in was perfect for us needing to roll in at 1am, my only complaint is that its a little dusty and tough on any allergies, but otherwise our night was awesome.
