Alternative Hostels Reviews

Had a very nice stay in Alternative Hostels. They have lots of comunal spaces which makes it easy to meet people. 15min walk to the centre of the city, lots of bars and nice places in the same street. Hostel was very clean, staff superfriendly. No complaints at all :)

It was really nice place and beautiful people, they make you feel at home, highly recommend it.

Nice place, really enjoyed our stay here. Close to a nice park and some in town ruins as well as the Old Town area. Had a kitchen you can use and a big DVD collection. Would stay again :)

Beautiful, modern hostel with lots of natural light. Kitchen was very well equipped and shared bathroom facilities were immaculately clean. Location was a very manageable 10-15 walk to the CBD.

One of my favourites. Spotlessly clean. Really nice decor and lay out. Vry helpful friendly staff. Grt wifi. Tv with loads of dvds. grt kitchen. Grt showers. Nothing bad at all....

Small hostel with friendly staff and good security. Very clean as well. I tried my luck and booked the "1 bed mixed dorm", hoping to get a private room for a great price. Turns out the "1 bed" actually means 5 beds. I did point this out to the staff. Breakfast is not included, but to make up for that they have a good kitchen with sitting area. Also a pleasant roof terrace. No computers, but you get 30 min. internet p/d in the internet cafe next door. Downside is the location, 15 min. from center

Great place to stay, the owner and his wife were very nice and the place was very clean. It's located just across the Banco Central musem and 10 mn by taxi from the bus station. The common room and patio are nice too !

Very neat place not too far from the city center.

The best kitchen ever! We've been in many hostels all around te world, but we've never had such a clean and furnished kitchen! The hostel is a little bit outside the center, but just a ten minute walk, and it's very close to a beautiful river. The rooms are a little bit dark, but the common spaces are good. Great Wi-fi! We would definitely come back!

Located on a busy road, but within walking distance from both colonial centre and old town. Fast wifi.

One of the best hostels I´ve ever stayed. Nice rooms (awesome), nice facilities, the hostel is kind of new. Staff VERY friendly, really polite people, who help you whenever you need. Great location. Very clean, wonderful showers (I´ve tried different ones). They try to make you feel home, and I felt really great there.

Very clean and comfortable hostel About 10 to 15 minute walk to centre of town.

We stayed at the hostel for one week and can definitely recommend it. The facilities (kitchen, bathroom, rooms) were clean and big enough. The hostel seems to be newly built. They have a balcony, tv area and a couch area. The staff is always there, really friendly and helpful.

I stayed in a private room. The hostel was very clean and secure, with a pleasant atmosphere. The outdoor terrace was a great place to "hang out" or barbecue. The kitchen was well equipped, and the two lounges were very comfortable. Xavier (the owner) and Juan were very accommodating. The rooms were of ample size, and I had no problem sleeping. It's a 10 minute walk to the city center with easy access to the airport & bus terminal (bus #7). I'll definitely return here next year.
