La Casa del Barrio - Hostel

i feel like home

This beautiful hostel with many renovated rooms, outdoor courtyard, colorful walls is so lovely! I could have stayed anywhere but the images I saw called to me and the reality did not disappoint! I hope the owners continue to monitor the viability of the mattresses snd perhaps offer a better cup of coffee. But the rainfall showers and hot water, coupled with the ambiance makes it is easy to recommend. Oh, and did I mention- this is the center of El Barrio Antiguo! Trece Lunas restaurant and community space, and a Michelin star restaurant are just around the corner. And above all- there is Alexandra who gives this place its heart! She is so willing to extend herself and she does everything: bookings, housekeeping,cooking,seving with love. She treats the hostel with same care she likely gives to her own home and family. Thank you!

The bed and in-room amenities were both much nicer than expected. Service was even better. The family that owns the property are all wonderful people. I would stay here again without any hesitation.
