Los Faroles Guesthouse Reviews

Normally I wouldn't write a review as most places come in at about what you would expect for what you pay. But this place had a few odd quirks which i will mention. Firstly there are no rubbish bins in the rooms or the bathroom so it;s up to you what you do with your rubbish. The aircon in my room was so cold that I had to block the vent (not individual) as i had a small room. The shower was cold so going from a freezing room to a cold shower (very hot outside0 was not the greatest.

Dont forget to take down the phonenumber, the owner might not be there. Our room had no window which made us loose our sense of time a bit. No actual kitchen, just a fridge and a microwave. But we got fresh towels, the bathrooms were clean, there was a a/c for the whole hostel which worked pretty good and it is near the town centre. If you look for a place just for one or two nights, this one is fine.

Overall, this cant be considered a hostel.On arrival getting in to the building is confusing as it isnt named and there is not a visible sign from the sidewalk. After figuring out which buzzer to ring (from Jungla Hostel which is in the same building) we rang it numerous times and no-one answered. I managed to get into the stairwell and banged on the door . No english is spoken, except by the owner who can be reached by cellphone. No AC, no-one is there to turn it on! Good location - no staff!!
