★★★★★

Situated a short walk from Antigua’s center, the hostel maintained exceptional cleanliness with regular daily cleaning and attention to detail. The kitchen was well equipped with quality utensils, and staff offered the unique service of washing guests’ dishes. A calm, non-party atmosphere prevailed throughout the stay, complemented by a beautiful rooftop terrace featuring mountain and volcano views. Staff were consistently friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable about local activities. Free group excursions to nearby sites like El Pilar were organized for guests.
