湖濱青年旅舍

Verblijf was verschrikkelijk. Ik zou niemand aanraden hier naar toe te gaan. Los van dat het heel erg verouderd is, is het vooral heel erg vies. Overal stof en schimmel in de kamer. We zijn hier eerder vertrokken. Eigenaar wilde niet mee denken in opties als het gaat over compenseren van de kosten. Wij zijn wel wat gewend qua viezigheid, maar dit was echt niet klant vriendelijk.

Great hostel with amazing access to the lake which was never busy, really good yoga classes in the morning and tasty breakfast included. The staff and people staying were also very friendly. We loved it here and ended up extending our stay 3 times

Big MEH I’ve been and worked in many hostels that pride themselves on being “inclusive” and “friendly” however many of our interactions with the people working at the property (besides the locals working on the grounds) were quite hostile and we felt as if our questions were an inconvenience to them. You must also buy water from the hostel or buy plastic bottled water from nearby stores. We like to do what we can to limit our plastic intake when travelling so we were filling up our water bottles for 5Q in the main area. However no one mentioned that the main area closes at 10pm locking the only source of water for the whole hostel inside of it!! & every tienda in town was closed, we checked everyone, seriously. Which in the end resulted in me having the worst 2 day hangover of my existence. Why not just be kind to fellow backpackers and leave the water jug with an honesty jar outside the locked area instead of trying to make an extra buck/not trusting the guests staying at your hostel. I personally always believe charging for water in a hostel is a really sleazy move, especially when you can support local in Guatemala and buy clay filtration systems that will filter unlimited water for free and cut down on plastic waste. You would think that in a place like San Marcos you would find a hostel that was less focused on making money
