I would advice you not to stay at this hostel for two reasons.
- it is a rat hole, as someone said, it did not feel clean.
- even though the american guy working there is great, the owners (who were not there and to whom we did not get a chance to talk when having problems even though we asked to get them on the phone) are not very accomodating. They wanted to take our deposition when we wanted to change the reservation (even though the reservation said it was possible to change if we talked directly to the owners). The owners also forced us to pay everything in advance, even though it does not seem to be the policy of the hostal...
It just felt like the owners were really trying to get the most money out of you as they could and did not really care for their guests... (I will not go into more details)
Also, there was noone who could really give us advice because everyone was new to the place so we had to guess, and go to other tourists to get information.

The staff are helpful and always have a smile on their faces. They actually care about you. Oh, and they have 2 gorgeous puppies living there.
PLUS Nomba's adventure equipment is top notch! Mirador Adventures will help arrange tours or set you up with the best gear (e.g. top notch...
