The food was really good, super friendly staff, Olivia has really good service. Bedrooms were clean and felt secure. Good place in the GC 10 mins walk from beach. Get your own space to sleep so don’t feel as exposing

This hostel was actually much better than we thought. The kitchen and bathrooms was really nice and everything kept very clean. Staying in a room of 130 is definitely an experience.
Emily
England
Amazing place, good vibes and free breakfast every morning with the team was a great way to start the day. Social dinner brought everyone together.

Staff cordialissimo e sempre disponibile. Posizione ottima: 10 minuti in macchina da Plaza de la Constitución e solo 15 minuti dall’aeroporto. Atmosfera accogliente e perfetta per esplorare Guatemala City, ci tornerei sicuramente!
Tommaso
Italy
Living in a room of up to 100 people really isn’t as bad as you might think. You feel like you have privacy in your own little pod and the vibe is amazing.
Jessica
England
Super friendly staff and backpackers — felt social right away. It’s one big dorm with 100 beds, but surprisingly quiet at night.

Great location near downtown, the beach, bars, and restaurants. However wasn’t the cleanest and I would not recommend if you are a light sleeper.
Loren

Good, cozy and modern — loved the pod design and the shared meals brought everyone together. Would happily come back.
Melisa
Argentina
Loved the social vibe and the dinners. The capsule pods gave privacy I wasn’t expecting in a big dorm. Would recommend to any solo backpacker.
Mikayla

A good hostel with everything you need — towel, locker for your stuff, shampoos in the showers, coffee and tea. The meals are actually pretty good.
