kitchen

Pros: cheap private room, the staff was friendly and helpful.  My room was located that I could hear the river, I found that peaceful for sleeping.  The location is central for walking to town, the park, restaurants, and shops.  I enjoyed exploring the town.  
Cons: although you have access to the kitchen, it wasn't something I was comfortable using.  I did use the microwave for heating tea water but that was it.  No refrigerators in the rooms.  Overall, the room was what I expected when I booked.  The linens were clean and the bed was comfortable, the shower had hot water.  For the price you pay, this met my expectations.

Modest private room and bath

My family and I really enjoyed our stay at this property. We had very low expectations, but it was quite nice and comfortable. We brought our own bed cloth and towels. I will recomend this property for LOCALS rather than other country tourists. 

We had good meals cooked in the shared kitchen and all other guest were extremly nice and respectful of the Covid-19 precautions.

Pretty Modest Stay

Pros: cheap private rooms, friendly staff and good location in the town. Also a supermarket nearby.
Cons: wifi is not that good in the room, the kitchen wasn't clean at all. It didn't seem that anyone was cleaning it. The supermarket was next to our room and it was loud in the night, which was ok when the window was closed. The staff speaks little english. Everything is old and used also the blankets. No real community 
If you want a cheap private room go there.

Ok hostel with nice staff

Taken there by our tour guide. Tucan Tours booked it. We had thought we had paid for hotels but cheap and cheerful Tucan had booked us into this dirty cheap hostel. Prices are $20 per night and even that is a rip off. Rooms where dirty. Bedding was ancient and suspicious. Kitchen was so awful i took pictures to seek a refund. Over half the tour group revolted and refused to stay there and made Tucan put us in a proper hotel. Front of the hostel faces the rear of a large supermarket. Waterworks outside in the street so they had no water for the toilets and showers. Our room was dingy with only a small window. No view. No tea and coffee making facilities. No fridge. And no air conditioning. Only a tiny fan. Avoid. We refused to stay there.

Avoid

Pro's: The name says it all. It's an Hostel and doesn't pretend to be anything else. Good location close to centre of town and a fast flowing mountain stream at the back of the Hostel. Very friendly, helpful staff inspite of limited English speaking ability. 

Con's: Not many. It's an unpretentious Hostel. Construction work at the back made the place look dirty and filthy. 

2 Night stay as part of an organized group adventure tour

As a hostal get the work done, it does have a nice location. Rooms are overall good, small tv, cable, Wi-Fi, small fan(which you probably wont use), hot water and a nice balcony. Recommended for people with a budget who only need a place to stay.

Average hostal

I have never done a review before, but I find them very helpful, so here goes...

I stayed in room 7 for six nights in April.  I would definitely stay here again.  My room had a private balcony over looking the river,  The location can't be beat - right next to the biggest grocery store in town and one block from the center of town.  Several people on here mention issues with the temperature of the shower- I did not have any problem - it was easy to get it to the temperature I like.

My room was clean and comfortable - keep in mind, this is a hostal, not a fancy resort and you won't be disappointed.  The reception staff don't  speak fluent English, but they know the basics, and  the owner (from the U.S.)  is often in the lobby to help.  He mentioned that he is slowly upgrading the hostal, one room at a time.
