Great place to kick back after exploring. Simple, affordable, laid-back. I would advise bringing some disinfectant wipes for the shared bathroom, as some people have not been taught how to clean themselves, but that's just one of those things with shared facilities. I would not hesitate to book here again!

Great service

James and Justin do a great job. We really appreciate their kindness and willingness to work with us for an enjoyable day.

We didn’t like anything except leaving. I will probably never get the order of curry out of my system. The person who served us was creepy. We left after an hour or so. The place was in a very bad location and we were afraid of having our car stolen, despite what the server told us. we cannot believe that this property had a 8.4 rating!

Smells like chemicals

Awful, the host kept talking about crackheads. I didn’t stay, I left after being in my room for ten minutes. The room was in poor condition, the blankets were extremely old and stained.

Bit different from regular hotel stay, had no issues about anything, nice back yard, quite unique, I would certainly consider staying here again

Had trouble at entrance, ring bell speaker full of static. Was denied use of the restroom. Felt unsafe dirty out dated and accommodations Limited. Did not stay and had a problem getting refund. Not a good choice at all. Would not recommend. And Expedia did not help get my money back reported both to the BBB

If you are looking for an authentic South Florida adventure with character, Hoosville will linger in your memory. Friendly hostel host, outdoor area with unique personality, clean shared bathroom, washing/drying facilities, and a great price. May be not for everyone, but we enjoyed ourselves more than at a boring motel.

excellent staff who helped make the stay comfortable. There was a problem with only two restrooms which is not enough. After midnight, other customers stayed in the restrooms for over an hour and would not leave. They were either sick or incoherent.

Stayed there with my girlfriend to recharge after a night of mosquitoes and rain in Everglades National Park. The owner, Mike, and all of his staff are welcoming and sociable. Interior is a little run-down, but clean and vibrant. The backyard will take your breath away. This place is his passion project, he bought it in total disrepair and has put 5 years now into renovating the place for young travelers looking for some nightlife fun and affordable accommodations. He also hosts reggae parties during holidays, with a fog machine, lasers, and DJ. Mike and the crew have big plans for their hostel, and he’ll gladly chat with you all morning about it. Can’t wait to go back for a NYE party once his smoothie bar (using local produce) and his Caribbean food stand get finished. Seriously, if you’re okay with a communal bathroom, come stay at a slice of Jamaican paradise right between Everglades and Key Largo.

Lots of amenities is this hostel which is good, only thing is rooms need upgrade but the affordable makes up for it

Our first time staying in a hostel. Staff was friendly and room was clean. We stayed in a private room. Hostel, although decorated nicely had a more “lived in” appearance and could definitely benefit from a small facelift. Outdoor common area was really pretty and it had a large outdoor shower as well as a tree house. We stayed in the “Water room” which had mermaid pictures on the wall. It had a mini fridge, smart tv and a portable ac unit Jerry rigged out the window? Oh and there was a $20 deposit for the remote control to the tv in the room. Neat property if you are looking for something mid point between Miami and the Keys or if you want to try out a hostel.

This is an incredibly comfortable and well run place for a hostel. It's great value close to Everglades and The Keys. The backyard garden is beautiful. Bathrooms are spotless. Nice kitchen open for resident's use. Management seems to screen out dodgy characters; I've felt completely safe here during my 6 day stay. Can't say enough good things about it.
