Nice place to wait for flight next day. Close to airport and bus station. Good internet with 2 in lobby and WIFI in rooms. Big super market 3 blocks away. Just don't use "George" as driver or guide. He is way overpriced for what he does.

Location is ok, Close to bus station And airport, taxidrivers dont now where it is. THE doen is basic but ok, there is à kitchen And 2 computers. You are only alought to use then 30.min. Most of THE time they where ocupied by THE staf. I would only recoment it of you want to sleep à few hours near THE bus station And THE airport. It is only à 15 min ride to THE center for à few $

Please only stay here if you are arriving to Guayaquil very late and need a cheap place to crash for a few hours...The Dorm Room is extremely Small & Uninviting!! This is NOT a Hostel, but an extremely Low Budget Hotel...Only plus is proximity to Airport! I would not stay there again under any circumstances!!

The hostel was very close to the airport which was just what I wanted. However the internet that is promised in the rooms cannot be accessed in the dorm. There was no hot water and the shower was filthy, the bunkbeds are frail and shaky and the mattresses are thin. It's fine for somewhere cheap to spend the night as you are passing through guayaquil.

Loved the free computer center in the lobby and the lockers in the dorm room. The dorm was clean and felt safe, plus the WIFI was fast and I met some fun people I went out drinking with. Had fun, would stay here again.

The stay was fine except for one thing. I was in the Dorm reading and the woman who worked there came in- I thought to change the beds from the htree girls who had flown out that morning. Instead of changing the sheets she just re-folded the dirty ones and put them back on the bed. She even talked to me while she did it, like she was not doing anything out of the ordinary. Very Gross.

I didn't know anyone that did not take a cab there. The hostel is situated in a labyrinth and is almost impossible to navigate to with the instructions given. The name airport hostel is also drastically misleading, since it's not near the airport nor is it a hostel. What happens is the owners converted a rooftop storage room into a seedy, squeezy room for 6. The beds are rickety and if they could put 60 beds in there, you know they would jump on the opportunity to do so. Felt like a cash cow.

Very impressed with the Hostel in general, the tone is very friendly and accommodating, a very big positive in particular when the native language is not your own... I have thoroughly enjoyed my stay and many thanks to the Hostel and staff for their gracious hospitality and friendliness

For cathching early flight, it's the best choice for backpackers. But there is no hot waters in dorm room.
