Miguel was very nice! The interior is so nice - loved the paintings! Very cosy common areas. Can have hot tea any time. Have a microvave and a fridge. Have a laundry service. Have social activities in the bar every night. Breakfast is very nice and has a selection you can choose from. There is a nice view of the mountains in the mornings from the breakfast zone. Bar has a wide menu till 10pm (very delicious) and sells drinks till 2am. Receptionist available 24hrs. Common area has nice music on, but inside the rooms is very quiet. Beds are very comfortable with warm blankets, bed-light and plugs. All is very clean. Location is just in the center with plenty of shops, restaurants, and places of interest around. Have a free 2-hours walking tour around the city. The best homie atmosphere gives a feeling of being welcomed.

Butique style hostel with very nice staff. Big bathroom with hot water, good breakfast and english speaking staff. Main hall is amazing with many decorations where you can have your late tea (available for whole day). Every room is different but you get what you see on the picture. Definitely recommended!

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.

    Great service, super welcoming, nice breakfast and the perfect budget hostel. Its surrounded by cheap food options and a 5 min walk from the main plaza. Cheap and cheerful. Kevin is really helpful with suggestions and recommendations. Not a party hostel, so be aware, but still had fun and a few nights out with the staff and guests!
