Short walk away from town centre. No social activities, but will usually bump into ppl in the common area. Secure entrance & night guard on duty, but no curtain for bunk. Friendly staff, clean place, delicious cafe next door. Best part was the hot showers, which is inconsistent in Central America.

The apartment was wonderful! The staff was very attentive and place was extremely clean. We had hot water, WIFI and fans which made the place very comfortable. The location was close to the center of town and we felt very safe here. Traveling with Tuk Tuk's around this area was extremely easy and cheap. I highly recommend staying here.

I stayed in the private room and it was very comfy. Room has a fan and towels are provided. Hot water in the shower. The hostel is right next to Casa de Café and you can enjoy their facilities (terrace with a view, restaurant from 7am till 8pm, massage...).
