    I had the pleasure of staying at a fantastic hostel in Guatemala. The facilities were spotless, and the check-in and check-out process was a breeze. The staff went above and beyond by organizing my airport transfer and even ensuring I didn't miss my tea before leaving. The hostel had everything I needed, from a cozy bar to a beautiful garden for yoga. I highly recommend this place for anyone visiting Antigua.

    I stayed at Maya Papaya for two weeks as a digital nomad and it exceeded my expectations in every way. The entire staff was amazing, going above and beyond to make my stay comfortable. The beds were even better than my own, with fresh sheets and privacy curtains for each bunk. The hostel was impeccably clean, and the social areas, like the bar and TV room, were great for relaxation and socializing. The well-equipped kitchen and library room were a bonus. The two adorable dogs added a special touch to my stay. The breakfast options, especially the fruit, yogurt, and granola, were delicious. I'm sad to leave after such a wonderful experience.

    Couldn't recommend this hotel more.

    We had a wonderful stay in a comfortable room with a private bathroom. The location was perfect, close to everything in the city and just a short taxi ride from the bus station. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the breakfast was delicious. The hostel was in a quiet area, allowing us to relax and enjoy our time in the center of beautiful Antigua.

    The Wi-Fi was slow and had limited coverage in the room.

    We enjoyed the comfortable beds with privacy curtains and the free breakfast. The communal areas were cozy and the kitchen facilities were good. Despite the small bathroom stalls, we appreciated the good privacy they offered. we had a nice stay at this centrally located hostel.

    The communal areas were inviting and comfortable, and I enjoyed spending time there. The staff were friendly and helpful, providing useful recommendations and directions. The location of the hotel was excellent, centrally located and convenient for exploring the city.

    The private room I booked was overpriced and didn't meet the expectations set by its description. The room was quite small, with limited space for movement and storage.

    The beds were incredibly comfortable, providing a great night's sleep. The showers were top-notch with high pressure and a perfect temperature. The location of the hotel was ideal, with everything you need within walking distance. Plus, the staff were amazing, always willing to help and provide excellent recommendations for tours and activities.

    The private room didn't have a private bathroom as we had initially thought, although the staff were kind enough to switch our room when one became available. It would have been helpful if this information was clear on the website.

    We loved this hotel! Great location near restaurants and close to the city center. The hotel facilities were fantastic, including the spacious library and chill patio area. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the breakfast was delicious with a choice between scrambled eggs or oatmeal bowl.

    Nothing, it is perfect.

    The staff was amazing! They were so helpful and welcoming. Also loved the location, it was close to all the fun places, but far enough away to avoid the noise. Lastly, breakfast was fantastic, with fresh fruits and delicious coffee.

    I stayed in a room that had a door to another room, and the soundproofing was very poor. I could hear everything the people in the room next to me were saying.

    Our stay in this budget-friendly hostel was exceptional. The location is perfect, with everything in proximity. The dorm room was tidy and comfortable, with a great common area and welcoming, helpful staff. The breakfast was delicious and reasonably priced with a lovely outdoor seating area where you can relax. The bathrooms were kept very clean.

    The bathroom was a bit cramped, although manageable.

    I had an amazing Thanksgiving holiday at this hostel! Loved the free breakfast and the cool ambiance of the communal area. The free water station was a lifesaver and the location was perfect for exploring. The hostel also offers great tours that made my trip even more enjoyable.

    That the dorms can be a bit noisy at night, but I didn't mind since I was in a party mood. The price was also a bit higher than other hostels, but I felt it was worth it for the quality of the facilities.
