The traditional breakfast was unbeatable. The staff is super friendly and nice. The tent is an excellent option for those who are easily bitten by mosquitoes.

Very good location and easy to find. Staff were willing to accommodate a late check-in. Fans in the room kept it cool at night and it was a nice atmosphere, very clean rooms. The pool and hammocks around it were also a nice feature

Wow! If you are wondering if you should book here or not....DO IT! My husband and I booked the King room which had the most beautiful garden view and the bed was sooo comfortable. We can't say enough positive things about our stay, the staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, above and beyond service! The atmosphere is like an oasis inside the city, close in walking distance to everything, and on top of it all the food that they serve there was muy delicioso and great value! 100% recommend this place!!!! We will book again

This hostel is awesome! Great location, friendly staff and a good wifi connection. The breakfast is affordable and tasty, there's a menu for food on delivery, hammocks in the garden to chill out and clean bathrooms. Great options for tours and shuttles/transfers. There's even a small swimming pool! Privacy curtains on the beds are great, and individual fans too. A wonderful experience!

Lazybones is a lovely hotel in an old colonial building. Well located in the city. The swimming pool is great in such a hot city. The best part is the staff. Such lovely people! Super helpful and kind.

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.

    Probably the best hostel on our trip. The staff was helpful and really nice. We were able to book tours right at the hostel, which have good value as well. The location was right in the center, but still you didn't hear anything in your room. The hostel is really clean and you have many spots to sit outside.

    Love everything about this hostel - staff so polite and excellent rooms. Great outdoor space to chill in great location. Social atmosphere but not too loud. Staff are very accommodating and currently helping us navigate some lost property.

    Great staff, great location, really clean and the facilities are good. Currently staying here for the second time and my dormitory has been with only one bunk bed (space for two people) each time, which is a huge plus.
