Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
If you value convenience over comfort its OK
Great location!, but that's about it, at the beginning I thought the place was abandoned, no sight of people and a tad dusty, knocked at the door and the bell boy comes in, even though I checked In at 16:00 there was no receptionist, so the "bell boy" checked us in (it was a bit frustrating since he did not have access to the computer and had no Idea about our reservation).
The room was ok a twin bed (old and not so comfortable mattress and dirty linens at the back and a single broken bed at the front (didn't used it), but I did perceive the overall lack of maintenance (we had a window without a glass, leakages on the tap and shower) and very very old and damaged furniture (no place to hang or store stuff).
Then the owner/manager...what a character!, a Chilean expat that was more into charging more money for the stay than to really manage the place or give useful tips, once she starts speaking It was very difficult to stop her nonsense, she was friendly but in an awkward and uncomfortable way (this is my own perception).
Overall my stay was OK since I was out most of the day but nothing to write home about, at 220 USD for nights and that service I felt a little ripped off.
If you mind convenience over comfort this is your place the hostel is within walking distance from downtown a 20 min ride to the beach and Archeological Site, has a 7-Elven just next to it, also the Shuttle Stop, I might add that I saw several people with problems with their onlinereservation
