Great place to stay! Staff was very helpful, and the bar was a cool spot with great views. It was so much cleaner than other hostels I’ve stayed at and the location was prime.

It was the perfect place to stay in San Marcos for me - tucked away in nature, yet not too far from the center. I loved the design of the place, everything felt modern, fresh & full of light. The room had big windows and the view from it was so nice. It was great having a little yoga platform there and I really enjoyed watching the sunset from the balcony in front of my room.

The owner is the nicest guy, you can always trust the energy. The other workers were extremely sweet as well and very helpful. This place has a lovely view and you get the main strip San Pedro in a 2 min walk. Health store right there. Amazing products there. The bedroom was perfect for me I was beside the windows and had the largest bed. The rooftop lookout is comfy and a great place to chill and play one of the multiple board games they have up there. Kitchen is clean and a nice open area with a Beautiful Bob Marley poster so I was quite happy there! Enjoy yourselves 🤙🏼 plus it’s only 30Q for a return ticket to San Marcos.

All hostels in Panajachel

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

It's probably one of the best hostels I have stayed in. Beds are comfy with full curtains and lockers to store your bags in before checkin or after checkout. And possibly the best staff that honestly make you feel welcome from the very moment you enter.

Recommend this hostel without any hesitation. It's social, clean, owners are super friendly and helpful, the beds are confortable and have curtains. There are chillout areas on the balcony and a super nice rooftop terrace. The location is super central and you have plenty of shopping and eating facilities for any budget close.
