Hoosville Hostel (Formerly The Everglades Hostel)

Attentive staff- accommodated my late last minute arrival, gave me a tour of the property. My room had AC and a nice bathroom and the sheets provided were freshly laundered and soft. Lots of outlets as well - at least four plugs per bed in my shared room. The backyard is really impressive- I wish I came with a friend and stayed a day longer. There are a bunch of bunnies and koi fish and an awesome natural rock pool with a waterfall, a dance floor, a projector, a treehouse.. really impressive. If I’m ever in this area again I will absolutely stay here again. Really cool place.

little pool/pond to refresh and a treehouse/net to chill. Private bathroom for our 8bed room.

Kitchen was not well equipped. No system in the fridge with labels, so we encountered food with mold in it. There was a party with extremely loud music at the hostel. Birthday party of the owner. At first we didn’t like that because we wanted a good night sleep (after sleeping in our car for 4 nights), but we just went with the flow and partied along. But check with the hostel in weekends if they have something planned before booking.

Nice hostel in a perfect location before the trip to Everglades of Key West. The room is decent in size and the bed is quite comfortable. Huge territory to drink beer and relax in the shade.. Bathrooms are clean. The price was affordable

The amenities are a bit worn down - do not expect the 5* hotel, but the atmosphere is enjoyable. There were few cockroaches, but hey - it's almost tropics..

The place is amazing, with a wonderful atmosphere, almost magical. The garden in particular is a parallel dimension where to relax and enjoy free time after or before an intense trip to the Everglades. It offers the possibility to meet new people but also have your own privacy. I would have liked to stay more days!! Ah! And the host was very welcoming and showed me around the place.

Only 1/2 drive to Key Largo, close to Alligator Farm and Coral Castle. Beautiful private courtyard for hostelers, comfy private room, can't beat the price! Manager Justin was super helpful and staff were friendly. Great restaurant choices nearby. Loved the cool spring-fed grotto!

The kitchen is not stocked, so bring your own cookware, utensils, and dishes.

Love the grounds and the nice bathroom in our room.

Didn't really understand breakfast. It didn't happen on our stay. I guess we make our own pancakes? But I didn't know where any of the ingredients were.

The place wasn't busy, so i got a dorm room yo myself. It was cleam, large, spacious with warm showers. The outside area looks like a tourist resort, its so pretty especially at night, all lit up. The management and staff make a great effort to create and maintain a pleasant and safe community vibe. I really liked it and shout out to Justin for taking care of me.

You can't beat the proximity to the everglades on a budget. The front desk guy was great, super friendly. Interesting grounds. Room had solid AC.

The bathroom in the dorm I was in looked to have not been cleaned in some time.

This place is perfect for the adventuresome, solo travel or couples, family's with kids, anyone really. It's an awesome place and feels likey second home. 10/10 would recommend. Try it out for yourself, you won't regret it.

This is an older property built in the '40s that they are constantly improving. I stayed in a private room with a shared bath for one evening. It worked out perfectly for me. The staff was super friendly and gave me a tour of the unique property. Great rates, clean room uniques setting. It was a nice diversion. I really enjoyed touring the grounds and the tree house was cool.

Nothing at this time. The property is older but clean. Repairs are ongoing. If one does not mind something unique nice choice. It is not a new property but the character and the staff make up for it. I enjoyed.
