For the price, this place was great. I got a private room that had the basic amenities, though the shower wasn´t the best. Location is central and close to all activity and shuttle drop offs and pick ups. Their social activities don´t seem to really happen, but I wasn´t there for that so all good. Staff was pleasant and chill.

This is one of best hostels / hotels I’ve ever stayed at! I‘ve stayed here a few times and I’m always surprised at just how down to earth, friendly and accommodating the staff are here. Amazingly friendly and always make me feel at home.

I’ve stayed at this hotel for the past three years, even before the name change, and it was always my favorite. Sadly, this stay was very disappointing. The receptionist was unwelcoming and gave us a noisy room right by the street and loud music. The room wasn’t properly cleaned, the toilet paper had already been used, and there were hairs in the bathroom. The pool was green, our welcome drink was denied, and breakfast now has very limited options. The only staff member who made us feel welcome was the lady at the bar. I was even planning to stay at the Atitlán location after this trip, but I booked another hotel instead because of this experience. Unfortunately, I don’t think I’ll be returning.

Ok, it’s a real hostel. I booked an entire room just for me and it was nice and big. The shower is bad, like very little pressure and not hot, just warm water. Bathrooms are dirty. Breakfast is good. It’s simple but you can’t beat the location. Location is everything! I didn’t realize that I booked a hostel….if you are simple, just need a nice bed, ok with lukewarm water and outdated dirty bathrooms….it will work. I wished I read reviews. They do offer daily activities, close to everything and felt safe.
