Unfortunately I fell off the steps coming down the restroom. I don’t think those stairs are safe. Especially how slippery it was. Never again am I staying here unfortunately. Not to mention the light, my husband kept running into because it’s hanging very low In the middle of the room. Those stairs going on don’t feel safe at all 🙁

It's ok. In a really good area sites wise, easy to get around and look at everything. The woman running the hostel is awesome, and there's a map of the best dites to help you make sure you see everything. However, the place itself is pretty simple and there's no privacy. It's clean, but uncomfortable, and I couldn't shower. Small breakfast, no eggs. Really go only if your looking for somewhere to crash imo.

Did see the room without a window and it's on the south wall so it's very warm from the sun with just a fan

Good points. Budget price for last minute stay. Welcoming and helpful reception staff . Clean place,filter coffee at breakfast good. Room 210, shower power very poor. Water only warmed once out of 4 attempts. Small room no heat , just one thin blanket. Neighbourhood not pleasant for holiday travellers and 40 minutes walk to Cathedral. No close good eateries. On depature charged 125pesos as having scratched my head, pillow case had 2 spots of blood .

Hotel con lo mínimo indispensable, limpio y cómodo

Hotel con lo indispensable para dormir y descansar, la habitación un poco pequeña pero cumple, no tiene restaurante pero por las mañanas ofrece un desayuno continental y cerca de ahí hay varios lugares a cuatro cuadras donde encontrarás variedad de opciones para comer, desayunar o cenar, la ubicación es cercana al centro unos 10 minutos en auto, no tiene estacionamiento propio y por la noche te brindan una pensión muy cerca de la ubicación, no tuvimos problema por la noche dejamos el carro en la calle y anduvimos caminando sin sentirnos inseguros, personal muy amable y atento, sin problema.
