We offer shared rooms with bunk beds as well two private rooms for those seeking more comfort. We have both shared and en-suite bathrooms, and unlike many hostels in El Salvador, all of the bathrooms have hot water in the shower! We also have a fully equipped kitchen with all the necessary cooking utensils incl. a microwave, toaster, fridge/freezer and gas stoves.

We are located in the southern part of the city, close to several bus stops - making it easier than other hostels to reach Santa Ana's main attractions: the Volcano Santa Ana, Juayua for the Ruta de La Flores or Seven Waterfalls Hike. If you don't fancy a bus or booking a tour, we offer scooter rentals directly from the hostel for $15 dollars a day.

Our location 3km (40 mins walk) away from the centre gives us a peaceful environent closer to Santa Ana's natural beautiful sites. However, if you wish to reach the city centre it's just a short bus ride or $1-$2 Uber away. Our nearest large supermarket with ATMs is only 10 minutes away, and we have a number of excellent local food options nearby.

Additional amenities include personal lockers, 2 x 52" inch Smart TVs for movie nights, a cheap laundry service, free parking, free water dispensers and a team of welcoming volunteers dedicated to making your visit as comfortable and enjoyable as possible.
