good clean hostel close to oldtown, good value

had a good time at solaz - its conveniantly located just a little bit off the tourist area but 5min walk to everything you need. breakfast is ok, staff friendly. Felt pretty safe and comfortable. However, typical plastic bag covered beds to prevent sweat stains and bedbugs. This means its a bet less comfy, but also very clean. Overall cleanliness was good - would defs stay again :)

Great place with breakfast

Nice place close to everything. The room was big and the breakfast was really good. We enjoyed our stay here after 4 days hike to Ciudad Perdida. The bed was a bit to hard for my taste
