What people say

Marlena Ruthe

"This place is located in the heart of the town and makes it easier to get to all the attractions and restaurants. I enjoyed staying here because the hostel has a beautiful communal area including, a kitchen, lounge area, and outdoor seating where they have a bar. There is even a game room and hammocks that lie within a mini garden. The hostel lists activities that happen within the hostel throughout the week, including a free salsa dancing class night. It is easy to hang out with others if you are looking to socialize or to hang out in one of the many rooms for more seclusion. Tip: Antigua is typical not too hot but sometimes as it approaches rainy season the rooms will get warm and some hostels have fans but there is no A/C. Lightweight sleep clothes would be a good idea.
