“Excellent ! Thank you to all the staff !”
Beautiful property ! Well maintained and super clean. Really nice vibes and peaceful. You can access everything from there. All the staff is super amazing. I rarely had such a good stay. So much I stayed twice. The breakfast is freshly cooked for you ok the morning and the chefs are amazing. Truly felt at home. Just feel sorry my Spanish was too bad to say how much I enjoyed my stay.

“Comfortable rooms and beds, friendly staff”
Everything. We were very well received, even though we arrived quite late at night. All the staff was always super nice and helping. The room was quiet, clean and the beds so confortable. We were not cold at all at night thanks to good bedsheets and heating. The breakfast was also very good. Amazing hotel!

“Perfect accommodation in San Cristobal”
Excellent location, room was great, the bed was comfortable, breakfast was good, and the staff were friendly and accommodating. We appreciated an early check in without any extra fees after arriving on a night bus. We also appreciated them storing our luggage and letting us hang out in their lobby area after checkout until our departing night bus.

Great service and value all round, very hospitable people with a delicious breakfast (included in the price) and daily room cleaning. Super clean and quiet as well, while still only a 10 min walk from the centre.

“I fell in love woth San Cris and this hostel! It was like being at home!”
It was such a great experience. The rooms are modest but comfy and have everything you need. The power shower was great too. The breakfast is super good. And the best is the staff attention. I was solo travelling and they really made me feel at home. I had a fantastic time in San Cris and I’ll definitely go back.

Hotel felt like a museum with such nice ambiance. One of the better complimentary breakfast! As if mom and dad made the breakfast every morning. Really felt like home. We were way too early but because the room was available already we were allowed to get a shower in the morning.
