The property is fairly nice, I personally loved the rooftop. It was quiet. Staff is very nice. My only complaint was the shower. It needs a little deep cleaning and in need of a being repair/replaced; the water never runs consistently cold or hot. I had a solo room and it really was just the dresser, hangar, and a fan which was perfectly fine with me since I was out all day. I would most definitely stay again here in the future.

Mold in the room beware check your surroundings. Due to poor ventilation. Hot water for shower not clear how to use since with electric shower head heater. Till you understand how to use it to get hot water or else you get a at best luke warm to cold shower. Have to keep window close in room if you want privacy. So it can get stuffy Poor lighting. Very dark Wifi password in rooms not clearly marked or updated correctly in the rooms. Tried 3 different rooms. Same issue. Till i went to front desk. “ year was missing” Shower drain blocked. 2 inch water accumulation when showering. Moldy grouts. Mildew on shower curtains base

Location was close to everything. Rooftop was beautiful and the workers were friendly I lost my tablet and the worker found it and held it at the front desk..place feels very safe as there are cameras every where. Book your hotel transportation and tour directly with them as it is cheaper

Amazing staff, super kind and sweet. Very accommodating and always have a smile on their faces. Most do not speak English but will happily accommodate you if you don’t speak Spanish. They are constantly cleaning and are just overall amazing! Also the hostal is beautiful and has an amazing rooftop that gives a great view of all three volcanoes and the city, when the weather allows it.
