Don Manolo is a great person who you can tell really wants to make the best positive impact for the community. This is a great place to rest, and to be away from the noisy places of the center, but still only 2 mins away walk from the center. Definitely recommend it

All hostels in Panajachel

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.

    It's probably one of the best hostels I have stayed in. Beds are comfy with full curtains and lockers to store your bags in before checkin or after checkout. And possibly the best staff that honestly make you feel welcome from the very moment you enter.

    Recommend this hostel without any hesitation. It's social, clean, owners are super friendly and helpful, the beds are confortable and have curtains. There are chillout areas on the balcony and a super nice rooftop terrace. The location is super central and you have plenty of shopping and eating facilities for any budget close.
