Located in Las Galeras, a 11-minute walk from Las Galeras Beach, Il Triangolo Hostel has accommodations with a garden, free private parking and a shared lounge.

A cute place in las Galeras. There are semi individual rooms i think i would book that eventhough since it is in a big kinda shed with no roof between the different rooms, when people speak you hear them. Take earplugs and eye mask because it get clear early. But when i stayed in the dorm one of the guest was snoring like crazy and even with earplugs or music i could still hear him. That is why i advise to take the individual "rooms" because I dont think it is much more expensive. The volunteers were sweethearts. There is a Ping-pong table and places to hang out. It is 2 min away from the bus. But there is no loud music from the parties going around which is important if you value your sleep a bit. It is a 10 or 15 min walk from an amazing beach. I met cool people there and had great talk with them.

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    The location is very good, next to the nice hotels, you can see the beach when you walk outside, on a safe street and it’s just a few minutes walking to the beach and restaurants. The bed is huge and one of the most comfortable beds I’ve ever slept in a hotel. Everything is clean. Stefano was very kind and helpful with arranging a cab driver and allowed us to have a late check-out. Nice swimming pool and kind employees.

    Great location. There is silence around the place, you can hear the sound of the sea. It’s the best place to visit alone or with company. Dario, the owner of the Villa La Caleta, is very nice and helpful.

    Best Traveller Hostel It s a nice hostel with even nicer people working there. Angie, Sophie and Thai helped me wherever they could...giving great hiking informations, organizing my travel, finding my next hostel as well as organising affordable ways to go to great places and come back.... This girls are just beautiful and I had a great time with them. I will never forget. I highly recommend this hostel to all travelers, especially the ones who travel alone.

    rare to find a backpackers hostel in the DR, and I enjoyed this place although the facility was a bit lacking and as usual in hostels the kitchen was well used and abused. friendly place though of course!
