This place is the best hostel ever !! We were there for 4 days during Christmas and it was very nice to speak soo easily with people and managers there, sharing each one's travel experience The common places are really confortable, well decorated with a lot of space to share moments with others. We also shared a meal for Christmas thanks to the managers They are available and ready to help to organize activities or bookings It's also a great place just to relax and chill for holidays.

I felt like home. The hostel has very convenient location basically everything is in walking distance, the bus station about 600 meters. The hostel is spacious, very clean, with communal kitchen with free coffee filtered water and verandah to lazy on .My 8 bed room not too big, but claim with comfy bed, fun and with enough sockets. Bathrooms with a hot water and spotlessly. The WIFI very strong and well working.

The staff really make the old house an awesome experience. Stayed with a friend in the 8 bed dorm. Everyone was incredibly kind and fun to talk too. Lots of space on the porch to lounge and sip coffee or beers. Aldo, davina, and friends were great hosts and even tour guides for some local rivers n stuff. Definitely would recommend!

This is an amazing hostel where you'll make friends and feel like part of a family. As a solo traveller this is probably the best place to stay in San Ignacio as I got to meet so many people that showed me amazing places in town. I ended up staying for three weeks as the city became my favourite of all the places I visited in Belize. This will forever be a stopping point along my travels.
