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

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.

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.

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

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!

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.
