Affordable and clean. Easy to check in. Host was very kind and helpful. It is a very small room and very close to the airport and nightlife so a bit loud but I had earplugs so it didn’t bother me. Clean drinking water was provided and the shower was hot.

I left before breakfast but what I really enjoyed was the cleanliness of the shared showers, toilets, and the bed. The place had a kind of library feel with everyone being quiet and respectful of fellow guests space and comfort. Unusual for a hostel.

The beds were about the most comfortable I slept in during my trip. The hostel is very clean the rooms are exactly as the pictures. I felt very safe walking around the neighborhood. There's a really nice terrace to hangout at. There was still some work being done to it when I was there, but it did not take anything away from it.

    Extremely close to the airport, perfect if arriving to Guatemala City or about to leave. They also offer shuttle service for the airport, making it super convenient to reach. The breakfast is really good, with eggs, pancakes, coffee, juice, fresh fruit. The best part of the stay were the hosts. They are incredibly kind and friendly, and went above and beyond to make us feel at home!!

    Hostel is in safe modern area - lot of hipster coffee spots (one of them just next door), restaurants and also great modern foodcourt 1 min walking. It has quite nice terrace and kitchen. It is approx. 20mins walking to the city center. Overall, although accommodation was not ideal, for 1-2 nights it was okayish, taking account the fact, that it is hard to find cheap accommodation in safe zones in Guate City.

    Great price, great location, and breakfast is good. Rooms are quiet, but a bit dated. $10 access to Camino Real gym and pool next door, which is a big plus and still cheaper than staying at camino real. Same day laundry service, helpful, friendly staff. Overall very satisfied.
