It's ok. In a really good area sites wise, easy to get around and look at everything. The woman running the hostel is awesome, and there's a map of the best dites to help you make sure you see everything. However, the place itself is pretty simple and there's no privacy. It's clean, but uncomfortable, and I couldn't shower. Small breakfast, no eggs. Really go only if your looking for somewhere to crash imo.

No window room hehe
Did see the room without a window and it's on the south wall so it's very warm from the sun with just a fan

Buget Friendly Disappointment.
Good points. Budget price for last minute stay. Welcoming and helpful reception staff . Clean place,filter coffee at breakfast good.
Room 210, shower power very poor. Water only warmed once out of 4 attempts. Small room no heat , just one thin blanket.
Neighbourhood not pleasant for holiday travellers and 40 minutes walk to Cathedral. No close good eateries.
On depature charged 125pesos as having scratched my head, pillow case had 2 spots of blood .
