nice staff (not English-speaking though), near central area, worn facilities, off odours, very cheap on the other hand

There were no other guests but me. Apparently, the bed sheets were old and you can hear the noise outside easily.

It was so dirty and smelly I couldnt sleep at night. Furthermore it´s situated very close to the San Pedro prison, which isn´t the best place to be around when it gets dark. And if that wasn´t enough, the staff wasn´t nice either. They seriously wanted their simple tourist city map back after using. All in all I would never stay at this hostel again. Worst experience.

Foi muito bom ficar em Los Balcones Blancos. A localização é muito boa, D. Tereza é muito prestativa e a segurança tb é boa. Fiquei num quarto individual, com TV e WC. Muito bom !

PROS: Good location. Cheapest place in town. CONS: Smells like mould. Shower ceiling is open so that you can see inside the ceiling and it looks like it will collapse on you. Bedframes are made of metal, extremely saggy, and extremely wake you up in the middle of the night squeaky. One of the employees, who was the only employee available for over twenty-four hours, didn't know the password to use the wifi (he was nice, though, just uninformed). No kitchen.
