An amazing hostel! The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, the location is perfect with easy access to shopping and the airport, and the facilities are top-notch. The pool is a great bonus, and everything is always clean, from the shared bathrooms to the well-equipped kitchen. I highly recommend it!

I booked Life Builders as I just wanted to stay one night in Guatemala City. The close distance to the aitport makes it very easy to continue your travel from there (many shuttles to Lake Atitlan and Antigua start from Zona 13 or the airport). Eduardo the host is super welcoming and nice. He helped me and others with finding an ATM, a SIM card and dropped me where my shuttle picked me up. I felt home right from the beginning. The setup of the hostel is so cute. It s super clean and comfortable. Also you have a beautiful view from there over Guatemala City and you can see how airplanes approach the airport. It was great. Thanks for having me 🥰✨️ PS: when you arrive it does not look as all the hostels i ve been to before (no big sign, reception or anything, don t wonder). It really is more like going home to someone - what made it even more special to me.

The staff was extremely helpful, friendly and approachable. The rooms were well designed, with a great warm shower that you need after a long day of traveling - and the bed was clean and comfortable. The breakfast is a must-have at Ojala! They had two great options that we got to share. One other important perk is their garden and patio - all you plant lovers can spend a long time just examining their plants.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Hostel is in safe modern area - lot of hipster coffee spots (one of them just next door), restaurants and also great modern foodcourt 1 min walking. It has quite nice terrace and kitchen. It is approx. 20mins walking to the city center. Overall, although accommodation was not ideal, for 1-2 nights it was okayish, taking account the fact, that it is hard to find cheap accommodation in safe zones in Guate City.

    The location was fantastic. Close to the airport and in an upmarket, safe area but only a 20 minute walk from the city centre. There are some nice restaurants and some shops nearby. The Hostel is in a secure compound with a garden and terrace where you can have an excellent breakfast. The room was basic but clean and good value for money. The staff were friendly and helpful. It's a great choice for travelers on a budget.

    Hostel is in a safe neighborhood and is actually cheap so I didn't expect much. However it definitely needs better cleaning cause I don't think our beds had their linen changed on that day cause we saw hair in our sheets and they had dust stains.
