Hostal Casa La Merced

Couldn’t find the place from outside. When I finally saw someone looking for it as well, we waited for over an hour to randomly have someone coming out of a door, and we guessed that it was the right place.. There was no staff for almost 48 hours.. No way to know what rooms was mine, WiFi code, how to pay etc. the thinnest walls EVER!

No staff member was in the hostel while I lived there. Not social at all (there weren’t many other people in the hostel at the time). From rooms have cardboard walls. No welcoming common spaces with couches to sit and chat with other guests, just a long glass table with chairs. Decent place if you just want to be by yourself and rest.

great place to rest after acatenango hike. was the only person in my dorm so no social atmosphere but was a great spot to relax and sleep. no hot water in the shower and not great pressure. everything else was great
