Big yard where you can sit and chat with other travelers. It’s a good place to stay for couple nights if you are not planning a long visit. However, I stayed in a dorm, I know they have private rooms as well. Everything was clean and comfortable. The area around is very safe.

I arrived at La Aurora International Airport (GUA) at 19:30 and got an uber to this hostel, 8 min drive! It was very easy to find with a huge picture of a hummingbird in the entrance way. The area feels safe and has a lot of restaurants. Unfortunately I don't know more as I was only there for one night and pretty much went straight to bed! The manager is delightful!! Facilities are really good, free filtered water, great showers, clean kitchen and lounge areas upstairs. Really comfy beds with curtains for privacy. I left early to get the 0600 shuttle to Antigua from the westin across the road (leaves from the Forecourt) and the manager still made me early morning pancakes! In the kitchen he had a jar of, what I would describe as a pineapple jam and then he offered me something that looks like pineapple but is actually weatermelon! I put both on and my breakfast was delicious! Recommended hostel :)

Beautiful hostel, very tastefully decorated with loads of lovely communal areas and super comfy dorm bed. The most well-stocked and generous hostel kitchen & breakfast I've experienced in Guatemala. Staff were helpful and friendly.

I love this hostel. My favorite in Guatemala. The common spaces are fantastic, the design and layout is great. Breakfast is also really nice. The staff are super friendly. It is just a really comfortable place to hang out. Has been one of the best hostels in central america. I stayed here before and after the volcan acatenango hike, and really couldn't have been more comfortable. They are in a nice and quiet location. In town.

All hostels in Guatemala

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.

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.

The location was fantastic. Close to the airport and in an upmarket, safe area but only a 20 minute walk from the city centre. There are some nice restaurants and some shops nearby. The Hostel is in a secure compound with a garden and terrace where you can have an excellent breakfast. The room was basic but clean and good value for money. The staff were friendly and helpful. It's a great choice for travelers on a budget.

Hostel is in a safe neighborhood and is actually cheap so I didn't expect much. However it definitely needs better cleaning cause I don't think our beds had their linen changed on that day cause we saw hair in our sheets and they had dust stains.
