Hotel El Andariego was a great stay, not too far from the main attractions and easy walking access to all parts of the city. The hotel staff was very attentive and helpful, taking care of the room and luggage when asked, along with transport. Atmosphere during my stay was great, with everyone being social and willing to hang out. Only issue I had was the last step on the bunk bed ladder was flush with the top bed, which made it difficult to climb into. I would recommend this stay again.

Definitiely a good place to lay your head down. The hostel is located in a great area close to Plaza de Ponchos, if you enjoy being right in the mix of the hustle and bustle. Just be aware that at night it can get pretty noisy as city centers do. The rooms are comfortable and quiet. We booked a 4-person bedroom and were given a 5-person dorm. There were only 3 lockers in the room which was fine for our group but something to be aware of. Communal kitchen is scary so maybe just avoid it.

Nice place, more a hotel than a hostel. But the facilities were clean and with plenty of space to hang around. It is also close to the center and Plaza de poncho and to Peguche’s waterfall, a must go in my opinion.
