This hostel no longer exists!!
I made my reservation and fully paid for Kairos Hostel mid November, all I saw were good reviews. My friend and I show up on the afternoon of check in to find a for sale sign on the front fence and a young kid sleeping on a cot inside the empty house. The kid stated that the house is for sale and he is watching over it for the owner. As soon as we encountered this, we got right online and looked at reviews. There is a recent review from the beginning of December that states exactly what we encountered. This could potentially have been a dangerous situation for us. PLEASE DO NOT RESERVE A ROOM AT THIS HOSTEL IF YOU DONT WANT TO GET RIPPED OFF!!

Couldn’t Find the Hotel
My rating is based on me spending over 1 hour trying to find the hotel without any luck. I put in the name of the hotel/hostel in google maps and waze and when I arrived (according to the gps) I was standing in front of a property that was being leased. I phoned Kairos hotel numerous times and got the answering machine right away. I phoned expedia and they also tried contacting the property, no luck there either. Expedia booked me into another property, which I’m grateful for.
