Nice and chill

Very friendly staff, kitchen with a lot of utensils, the pool is perfect for those hot days in Guayaquil. Really nice and chill place. We could even store our big luggage during our trip to Galapagos. Felt very welcome and at home. The outdoor areas are perfect to chill.

Wonderful hostel in the safe area of Urdesa

The staff are so friendly and helpful, they feel like family. The pool and outdoor dining area is lovely. The location is good, with a short walk to a main street with restaurants, cafes, and a big supermarket. You can walk from the hostel to GuayArte, Puente Zig Zag and Malecón de Salado along a river.

Extremely helpful staff, we showed up early in the morning and they prepared our beds for us early. We really did appreciate this after a long overnight bus. The pool is lovely and you feel very safe and secure in a city that can feel otherwise unsettling.

Best hostel in Guayaquil, amazing people and good vibes !

My favourite hostel I’ve been to in my travels in South America. The staff were super helpful and kind to me, Mae, Cotto, Verena, Seb, Rosio and Ítalo were all fantastic (not to mention their many volunteers). Everyone who worked there was great to have a chat with and went above and beyond with their service! The food served here was delicious, the amenities were clean, and the hostel doggo is the cutest. Highly recommend the walking tours they offer and the Yoga class with Verena!! A+ with the pool of course !! stayed here for over 2 weeks and loved every second of it ❤️

Safe location and great staff but poor night’s sleep

Staff were very welcoming and helpful with taxis and early breakfast when we had to leave early in the morning. Outdoor area is very nice to relax in and free water refills is useful. Neighbourhood felt safe, ATM nearby.

Lovely and helpful staff

Lovely and helpful personnel. Clean room with desk and chair. Additionally, they sell basic personal care products and also chocolate, ideal souvenir from Ecuador! I just love the idea to sell those items. Smart and convenient.

Nice

Breakfast was free, so that was nice. They had also hammocks to chill in and a refreshing pool. The location was in a more luxurous neighbourhood, but not in the centre of guayaguil. However, they offer walking tours where they show you the highlights of the city with a lot of fun facts. And Nacho, the dog, is adorable.

Nice hostel with pool, clean rooms and good staff

Basic yet nice private room with ensuite, the staff were lovely, so helpful, friendly, welcoming and the pool was great too. Everything at the hostel was good, no complaints. The room was decent as was the price and the location was walking distance to the main road and a lot of food places. I preferred Maleacon side of town, but that's nothing to do with the hostel, just more so the area.

Best place in Guayaquil!!! And one of the best Hostels I have been so far in my life

I truly think it is the best place to stay at when being in Guayaquil. I was before for one night in a hotel in the city center and it was loud, dirty and not relaxing. I changed to Nuncapacha and had the best 2 days I could have imagined. The food is excellent, as well as the staff and the owner. The pool is a big bonus, has a nice temperature and was bigger than I expected. The beds were comfortable, it was possible to have hot showers and everything was clean. It is not in the city center but I consider this a benefit. The city is very busy, loud and from my perspective not very welcoming. At Nuncapacha it felt like an oasis (no traffic noise at all). When you are interested to visit the city, they offer different walking tours or you take the bus or a taxi (only 5$). They also organized an early taxi to the airport for me, which was perfectly on time. Please support them by staying there!!! I loved it and when I will ever return to Guayaquil I will stay at Nuncapacha.
