The hostel was clean and safe and I had a private washroom. The staff were great and friendly, however no one spoke English which is ok but the wifi was spotty so translation was challenging at times. It is off the main drag so good if you enjoy quiet but bad for meeting peole and socializing. There is a good restairant el diablo which is about 8 minutes walk from the property and some shops to get snacks and water close by. Also a market to get fresh fruit. The hostel does also offer a free breakfast which was tasty and filling.
