Very good location and easy to find. Staff were willing to accommodate a late check-in. Fans in the room kept it cool at night and it was a nice atmosphere, very clean rooms. The pool and hammocks around it were also a nice feature

The staff made me feel welcome from beginning to end. Location, excellent. I had to take a taxi to the bus station, 40 Cordabas. Within walking distance of cathedral, bars, food outlets etc. Comfortable, clean, quiet dorm. Plenty going on and of course, Volcano Day has its office there, so easy to arrange volcano climbs. Great hostel.

Dorms are large and clean with ensuite washroom and shower. Kitchen to use is well equipped and clean. Common area with tables and hammocks. Quiet area of town. 5 min walk to either of the beaches. Bicycles available for use to explore the area. Shops nearby carry basic groceries, if you want anything special stock up in Leon ahead of time. Restaurants within walking distance if you don't feel like cooking. The owners are extremely friendly and knowledgeable about the area, where to rent a good surfboard and spots to surf. They are always willing to help out with anything you need to make your stay the best. Fluent in English , French and Spanish. Gaston the dog is the best. He's extremely chill and friendly.

All hostels in León

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is 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 bit more.

    Probably the best hostel on our trip. The staff was helpful and really nice. We were able to book tours right at the hostel, which have good value as well. The location was right in the center, but still you didn't hear anything in your room. The hostel is really clean and you have many spots to sit outside.

    Love everything about this hostel - staff so polite and excellent rooms. Great outdoor space to chill in great location. Social atmosphere but not too loud. Staff are very accommodating and currently helping us navigate some lost property.

    Great staff, great location, really clean and the facilities are good. Currently staying here for the second time and my dormitory has been with only one bunk bed (space for two people) each time, which is a huge plus.
