The host Eduardo was the nicest man you could ever meet. I was staying in the property one night and had an early bus transfer the next day (6am). Eduardo not only called a friend so I could get an early taxi to the bus station at a good price, but got himself up early to make me breakfast before I left and to make sure I got sorted fine. He also speaks very good English (even though he thinks it isn’t that good). I wish I could have stayed there longer :) It’s also close to the UCA where a lot of bus/shuttle connections go to and from.

Gabriel was an exceptional host. He was very helpful, kind and friendly. He even presented me with a slice of cake on my birthday while I was there! The Hostal was well planned with various places to sit inside and outside. The gardens were lovely. Breakfasts were delicious with plenty to eat. The air conditioning and filtered water were much appreciated. We met other interesting travellers and felt very safe walking in the surrounding area. The cafes and restaurants recommended by Gabriel were very nice with good food and economical prices.
