Location was good

“You can find better option”

Before booking this hostel, I’ve read about the noise, so I was aware of it. It was pretty loud. Nothing special, the room was okay.

“Everything you need in a good location and lovely staff!”

The location is great and the staff we’re the most helpful and friendly workers i’ve met! Loved the upstairs terrace for relaxing and reading plus meeting other travellers. Nothing to complain about beds, rooms and propably the best communal kitchen in a hostel i’ve seen! So if you like cooking own meals, this is definately a huhe plus!

“we have great experience for 5 days.”

Rooms were clean, beds were comfy and with fewer people which really made for a quiet stay. Near the party area but still quiet. The owner was super helpful and quite responsive. He helped us navigate the lake.

“Great hostel!”

Oh Mandalas.. what can I say? I had a great time here, met some lovely people and staff and returned a few weeks later. Not a party hostel but close enough to the action. Bathrooms and dorms clean, I had an entrance level female dorm next to the bathroom. Just be aware that there is limited warm water in Guatemala and at lake Atitlán.

“Just a good place to stay while in San Pedro”

Everything was well maintained, great location, really helpful staff

“Great!”

The place is great and the staff is super friendly. I didn't want a party hostel, so it seemed to be the perfect choice.

“Perfect place!”

Definitely recommend! This place is amazing! Location is great, it’s safe and cozy and really clean! The staff is super friendly as well, always here to help!

Super comfy beds and 3 bed female dorm was spacious with lockers. Bathroom was basic but clean and had hot shower. Good kitchen and nice rooftop area. But of an alleyway to get there but was fine and a 2 minute walk to the Main Street. Would stay again.

“Overpriced for what we got”

The general area of the hostel is nice and seems clean, the people working there were very friendly and helpful.

“Perfect chill hostal for a few nights in San Pedro.”

The outdoor chill area was nice to sit in the afternoon. Good lake views. Good kitchen space. Wifi was good.

“this is a lovely place for connecting with people and nature and the staff creates a comfortable and loving surrouding,”

the best equippwd kitchen ive ever seen. VEEEERY comfortable beds and community spaces

Beware the private room has a broken toilet, that the owner knows about but has never fixed. We paid for a private and extra for the ensuite room but then couldn't use toilet and the shower was so low pressure we used the communal ones for the dorms, so absolute waste of money. Staff promised to partially refund via PayPal while we were there for the inconvenience, then after we departed just left our whatsapp messages on read and never gave anything back. Better options elsewhere in town, would avoid. Not social at all

“Nice hostel!”

Nice hostel with great roof terrace. Kitchen is very nice. Staff was helpful and they offer many services. The hostel cat is also insanely cute. I was a bit afraid because many reviews talked about the sketchy alley to get to the hostel, but I found it no problem. It is a bit tricky to find the first time, but after that no issues and the alley was also not scary to me.

Amazingly friendly staff, they will help you out with any question you have! Very good Location and clean.

“Brilliant stay, felt right at home”

Yes this property is a bit difficult when you arrive to San Pedro, but this is one of the best hostels I’ve stayed at. Staff are so kind, happy to advise on anything, the whole place was extremely clean during my 4 day stay. Kitchen is very well equipped, they even have a free food section with oats, tea, coffee, honey, pasta, rice, salt and sugar. Wi-Fi works very well and rooftop hangout area is so lovely. The music from Mr Mullets goes on to 11pm but this wasn’t a problem for me, and I couldn’t really hear it from my room anyway.

Nice view from the terrace. Helpful staff. Had little problems finding place. Comfortable 1 flor beds

The beds were super comfortable, loved the rooftop the view was very nice! Shower had hot water and the WiFi worked well :)

“Cheap and okay but there's better options”

The hostel has a cute flair with a cat living there, a nice roof terrace overlooking the lake and a hammock to relax in. The people working here are friendly and the owner can give u all kinds of information. My room was super small and had 5 people in it. There's no room to store things, just some small lockers so all of it is on the ground and as I checked in it just looked like a mess (super messy people is not their fault but bigger lockers could prevent it). Beds have no privacy curtains and are super wobbly so you'll definitely wake the other person. There's just one bathroom each floor and sometimes I had to wait bout 45 minutes to brush my teeth and ended up brushing them at the sink in kitchen. More outside sinks would help. Water in the shower is only warm when you literally shower with the least pressure you can get- jumping from one drop to the next then. Location is alright - walkable to the lake and loads of bars and restaurants. It is super close to Mr Mullets Party Hostel but you get noise just until 11pm, so not too bad. Kitchen is spacious but it's one if the first kitchens I had in hostels which literally has no common products. Not even pepper or other spices! Let alone oil... What quite annoyed me is that they clean the kitchen directly at lunch time and I had to wait a few times bout half an hour for them to finish ... Why not do it bout 10 or around 3 when people usually don't cook? All in all it's relatively cheap but you'll get definitely better options around.

“Good place to stay”

Location is good, although the little alleyway is easily missed. Beds ok, quite comfy. Nice to have a modicum of privacy around bed - partial/ small curtain. Showers are iffy, weak flow if hot, otherwise more flow then cold. Well equipped kitchen, although not enough mugs, and wished there was hot water to wash-up. Lovely view of lake from top lounge area.
