Quiet place in Panajachel

I had the whole dorm for myself as there were no other bookings. It is around 25 minutes walk from the city centre but I didn't mind that as I wanted to stay away from the noisy touristy crowds. There is a fridge that guests can use.

Everything was fantastic! Really clean, hot water, parking available, and there’s a possibility to do laundry, which we used ;) It’s not far at all – about a 15-minute walk to the ferry. Highly recommended!

Always a good stay and very clean.

As always, very clean, comfortable dorm with privacy, hot water in the shower, lockers.. Not central but quiet because it is outside whilst not far to walk into the main town.

The place is basic but is very clean. I like that the owner kind of divided female traveller in a room from the male one Also every bed has its own curtain, it feels like you have your own bedroom, provided with bed light, plugs, towel and soap) I actually have 2 single beds for myself. The toilets are clean and the shower is hot and has good pressure (just wait 5 min for the hot water, because it doesn't come straight away). The hostel gives water, tea and coffee for free. But you can also have a really nice breakfast for a small price. Another thing they offer is a laundry service (I didn't use it, so I actually don't know a lot about it) The man who runs the place is very nice and polite..

The staff are excellent here. They always greet you by name, they are helpful in planning trips and even guided me down to my shuttle. The property has a very nice setting and I appreciate that they are trying to make a difference with the environment. The dorm room was very big.

It's always a pleasure to stay here.

Always very clean and in a fairly quiet location. The dorm has privacy curtains so it feels like you almost have your own room. Hot water shower and free tea and coffee and water always available.

Always a very good choice for a stay.

Super clean, quiet location and a very easy place to be. Personally, I love that it is out of the main town, and close to a mountain. Much quieter and one is woken by birdsong.

A nice, clean and quiet place away from the main town but it is walkable.

Very clean, and quiet as it is out of the main town but less than 10 mins walk from the lake. I slept in the dorm and it was a good, comfortable experience. The staff are friendly and keep the place spotless. 24 hour security cameras, secure parking available. Breakfast and lunch are available at extra very reasonable prices.

Spotlessly clean and a beautiful place to stay. The owner himself takes care of the guests well. It's a little far from the centre but that was I was looking for. The hotel has a private parking space, which makes it ideal for guests travelling by car. I definitely recommend this hotel.
