Loved staying at the funky dodo hostel, all the staff were super kind, great location for walking around town, a short stumble to the Carribean. I would stay here again in a heartbeat!

It's what you would expect of a backpackers hostel. Great location. Staff was very friendly and helpful. I would stay there again. Only negative was limited parking, but then again, it was a backpackers place.

The owners are very helpful. It is steps to the beach and Hopkins Pier. There are a few restaurants in the area as well as an ATM, super market, and pharmacy. The cooking area is well equipped and its a friendly place with a communal atmosphere .

I loved the vibe here eclectic mix of people and everyone very friendly. Place was well kept I upgraded after 2 nights when I saw the private rooms on top and figured I waNted to spoil myself. Team was very helpful in figuring out the village and what’s worth to do. I would definitely return here happily.

Wir waren 2 Nächte im Funky Dodo, um von Hopkins aus die Umgebung zu erkunden. Wir hatten einen netten Aufenthalt. Die Zimmer waren sehr sauber und geräumig, der Aufenthaltsbereich war schön eingerichtet mit vielen Informationen zu Unternehmungen und vom Hostel aus war Hopkins gut zu Fuß zu erkunden, da es zentral gelegen war und auch Einkaufsmöglichkeiten nicht weit entfernt waren. Mit Abstand das beste Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis auf unserer Belize-Reise.
