We stayed at this hostel on each side of two trips, storing luggage on site as we went out on other adventures. That worked well, and the owners/staff were really nice and accommodating of our comings and goings. But there were a couple of things that made the stay less than ideal; of the three rooms we stayed in, only one had a reliably hot shower, one warm, one pretty much just cold. Another problem was the lack of heat in the rooms--I knew that going in, but our first room, was basically open air, with lots of room for outside air to come in around the door, windows and roofline over the bathroom, and the temp that night dropped below freezing! Even with 3 alpaca blankets, it was cold--I slept in my down coat. Rooms right off the lobby still cooled down at night, but weren't as cold. But really, for the price, what did I expect?! Just next time I'd go at least a bit more upscale. Also, be aware that "pay at the hotel" means in cash in US dollars. Happily I had enough along to do so.
