Great daily breakfast! The hotel is under renovation (nearly complete). Avoid rooms on the main floor (no view and depressing). Second floor is better but the third floor is nice. Terrace. No elevator though. Overall, good value for San Cristobal.

Cute hostel with really nice staff. The outdoor area is great to relax in the hammoks after a long day exploring. The owner was kind and gave us recommendations on what to do. The rooms were spacious with decent on-suites. The breakfast was really good and free water was a bonus! Good location only 5-10min walk to the main shop area. Would stay here again

Excellent place to stay

Great hotel to stay. close to everything. Room is clean and big. Shower is great. Service is excellent. 9AM check out is a bit too early if you have a 1PM flight, but I checked in alot earlier, so it is a wash. Overall, an excellent place to stay on the island, highly recommended.

There was person at reception during day hours, but if you arrive late, you preemptively can get their number and text or call for a $5 ride from Airport to Goshen. Staff very friendly and there is a filtered watering station in lobby. Our room had 2 beds and a private shower. Very clean. Nice pillows. No noise walls thick. Breakfast was good. There is coffee bar and bakery a block away. Yes, I would highly recommend

Very small. Barely had room for luggage in the room. Bed was hard as a rock. Bugs in the room. Hot water came in and out. Got charged for my 1yr olds breakfast because we didn’t put that we had a kid with us. I would not stay there again nor recommend it to anyone

Lamentablemente, mi experiencia en este hotel fue muy negativa. Desde el primer momento, el trato del propietario fue poco profesional: se mostró poco dispuesto a colaborar, con una actitud prepotente y poco respetuosa hacia los huéspedes. La habitación dejaba mucho que desear. No ofrecía la privacidad esperada, las gavetas estaban rotas, el baño no se encontraba en condiciones adecuadas de limpieza y la puerta tenía un espacio considerable con el marco, permitiendo el paso constante del ruido del exterior. Para empeorar la situación, el edificio estaba en construcción, por lo que el ruido fue permanente durante gran parte de la estancia, sin que esto fuera informado con anticipación. Por estas razones, no puedo recomendar este hotel. Afortunadamente, en la zona existen otras opciones con mejores instalaciones, un ambiente más tranquilo y un servicio mucho más amable y profesional. Espero que el establecimiento tome medidas para mejorar tanto la atención al cliente como las condiciones de sus habitaciones. Unfortunately, my experience at this hotel was very disappointing. From the very beginning, the owner was uncooperative, arrogant, and unprofessional, showing very little respect for guests. The room was far below expectations. It offered virtually no privacy, the drawers were broken, the bathroom was not properly cleaned, and there was a large gap around the room door that allowed constant noise from outside …….

Awful hostel with an obnoxious owner

Awful experience. The owner claimed to have not recieved my reservation and then lectured me on how lucky I was that he had a room that night. This is not a hostel but a cheap guest house that has very thin walls and was extremely noisy. Despite speaking minimal english, the owner was extremely condescending and I ended up leaving 2 nights early and he would not refund me the money. There are much better places to stay at on the island.
