La Joya Hostel

Considering the price, they do an excellent job. The location is very practical (next to the harbor and thus close to good transpo). The front-desk guys are friendly and helpful, particularly Felipe, who speaks English like a native. We had a private double room, which was a bit spartan but spotless and thoughtfully designed. The beds are situated in an upper alcove. If you need to get to the bathroom at 2 in the morning, descending the steps could be challenging. But tucking the beds upstairs makes the accommodation a lot more spacious. We also appreciated the nautical theme evident throughout the hostel and adjoining restaurant. Fastest internet we’ve ever seen, and a decent breakfast.

My only suggestion would be to add a chair in the room. (It had only one chair and one beanbag).

Staff was awesome. There was hot water, a stocked kitchen, good wifi, good shared space, a bar, and a restaurant. I could have lived there.

Nice rooms with everything necessary, excellent restaurant

Pillow too big, bed sinked in the middle

Nice, clean, large and comfortable rooms. Kind and smiling staff. Very nice breakfast. The integrated burger restaurant offers excellent dinners.

close to the bus station, you can just drop your bags and hit the city, you can go to the old town with a trolleybus. Staff is helpful, English speaking, providing all the guidance and information
