    Not familiar with the city yet but the space is comfortable and the staff gladly calls the cabs to come to the hostal to take you to the bus terminal and airport, and no doubt wherever else you might want to go. Good value. Safe neighbourhood. Supermarket and many food stands at night about 10 minute walk from the hostal. Will stay again when I come through Guayaquil.

    The only downside is you need to ring the bell to go in & out of the property but not a big hassle.

    Located in secured neighbourhood with a small park opposite the property with trees & chirping birds. A sort walk to the supermarket, fast foods & shops. Straightforward check in with partly covered patio with table tennis table a star fruit tree surrounded with ornamental plants where for lounging or working. WiFi is working well. A well equipped kitchen. I was assigned in a 6 dorm bed with comfortable bed with aircon & valuable storage. Shared bathroom & hot water. Lucy & her assistant were helpful & friendly. And very good value for budget travelers. Highly recommended.

    - filtered water to use would be amazing and also much better for the environment instead of people buying so many plastic bottles at the supermarket :)

    - really nice and safe neighborhood, tia supermarket and cafes, eateries close by where international cards are accepted :) - loved the tiny private terrace for my yoga practice - super close (by taxi) to the bus station and airport - quiet at night - many other solo female traveler around :) - great vegetarian dinner

    Bathrooms are quite cramped to use and according to the signs you can’t use the kitchen in the morning (I did with no issue since there was no one using it). Power sockets in awkward places.

    Good location close to airport, very friendly and helpful staff, and falafel place attached does very good food! Decent WiFi and Aircon in the room much appreciated.

    I stay here on my travels into the country and it is always convenient to the airport, they leave a light on for me and are waiting (I usually arrive between 11p and 1a depending on how long immigration and customs takes at the airport. And they are up with me at 5.30 to get a taxi to transport me to my van shuttle. My room is always nest and clean and I always book a room with AC because Guayaquil is often bot and humid. Thanks for another easy and comfortable stay.

    The room was stuffy and hot even with the fan; the hostel was mainly full of travellers passing through, so not a great vibe. Only 2 bathrooms so expect to wait especially in the morning rush.

    The only good thing about this place was the location (being the only hostel close to the bus terminal and airport) and the falafel shop joined to the hostel. I saw some people cooking so the kitchen must have been alright. Bathrooms were clean.
