The front desk was super helpful, was able to hold our bags before departure. Good value for the money. Beautiful rooftop area that overlooks the city.

4/10 Fair

Okay property, beautiful views, and good location to walk to shopping. Very basic room, no tv, no ac, little lighting, no fridge, no microwave. I had issues with my room locking and hot water, but staff helped to correct.
Vivian, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Location was close to everything. Rooftop was beautiful and the workers were friendly I lost my tablet and the worker found it and held it at the front desk..place feels very safe as there are cameras every where. Book your hotel transportation and tour directly with them as it is cheaper
Trecel, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Amazing staff, super kind and sweet. Very accommodating and always have a smile on their faces. Most do not speak English but will happily accommodate you if you don’t speak Spanish. They are constantly cleaning and are just overall amazing! Also the hostal is beautiful and has an amazing rooftop that gives a great view of all three volcanoes and the city, when the weather allows it.

It's very close to fast food restraunts as well as local eateries. Supermarket is also within walking distance.

10/10 Exceptional

Can't beat it for the $$
Found this a very pleasant place to stay. The location is great, there is a rooftop deck with views of the Fuego Volcano erupting in the distance and the staff were very kind. The rooms are basic but comfortable and there are lounging areas with bean bags if you just want to chill somewhere. Highly recommend!

yair, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Property was in a centrally located area downtown. Didn’t have to walk far for anything–food, snacks, souvenirs, site seeing. Room was very clean. Only thing is the walls are thin and can head upstairs. Stayed in a private room/private bath. Would stay again

rbojr
i stayed in the first dorm room on the right across from private room 102 the bunk beds in this room are very comfortable and very quiet they make very little noise however the door to this room is very creaky and very loud and makes lots of noise and does not latch properly ive stayed in this hostal multiple times three different room the staff is always very professional and helpful you would think you are at a three star hotel the price is reasonable at 11.00usd per night

Your turn place, good stuff, very clean only two showers for the Hostel people sharing dorms, the staff are helpful and understanding, the check out time is so strict at 11:00 after that you pay 100 Q
Antony, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Location was great and staff was friendly. Rooms were clean and comfortable. They didn’t clean my room the first day even though daily housekeeping is promised. Also hot water and WiFi were not good.

Good location, but wifi troubles
Good location and overall reasonable rooms. WiFi was a major issue for 3 days did not have consistent signal and essentially none in our room.
2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location and good cleanliness
Great location and clean bathrooms. I visited in the low season so not over-crowded. Room was warm and there were no windows or option for fresh air, which was fine due to the season but I imagine it can be rough in the warmer seasons. Staff is nice and friendly. Unfortunately they could not provide keys for the lockers in my room.
3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Had to ring the bell to get inside, they made sure everyone going in where from the hotel. Made us feel more at ease with our stuff inside. Make sure you know some basic Spanish, they don’t speak English. Very kind people tho :)
Maïka, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nicely decorated rooms. Simple but expedient furnished. Nice roof terrace with amazing view. When the chairs on the roof terrace are moved, it is very noisy in the rooms under the terrace. Hot water in our room didn’t work, so we used the common bathrooms.

8/10 Very good

I had a single room and it was a basic accommodation but served my purpose. Convenient to everything and considering this was very quiet. Loved the rooftop. You were unable to have the window open and close the blind which was not an issue because it was cool. If it were warmer I think it would be a problem so a fan might be helpful.
Bonnie Lee, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Not bad
No sound proofs at all. You can hear people giggling and chatting even late at night and very early in the morning. I couldn't have a good sleep even single night. If you are looking for somewhere quiet for a good sleep, take another options please. Other than this, not bad.
