Central 10 Boutique Hostel

Such a great start for arriving in Guatemala! The staff is extremly nice and helpful. Everything is super clean, really yummy pancakes for breakfast. The kitchen is equipped perfectly and the area feels save and there are loads of restaurants and stores around. The pool is a great bonus and the showers are hot and clean! We recommend!

New and very nice! Good price, awesome staff, breakfast included, close to lots of stores, shops, restaurants and a refreshing pool! You'll enjoy your stay ! 👍👍

It's good, hot water, among the better bathrooms for this price range. The rooms by the kitchen can get a little loud if people are uo cooking and talking loudly in the echoey concrete building. Very close to lots of great places in Zona 10.

Very convenient for a night or two. Especially being so close to the airport. Many restaurants around, and stores. Felt like a very safe area. Stayed one night because I arrive late and didn’t want to travel to Antigua during night time. And price is very good. I definitely recommend.

Wonderful place! Nice full kitchen that I didn’t use 😅. It is located in a wealthy part of town with some expensive restaurants and other places within 10 minutes walking., although this means it is very safe. They had the glass doors open and no screen so there were some mosquitoes in the room. They have large lockers(you need a lock) for all your luggage. Nice outside area with pool. 24/7 staff that’s very friendly/helpful. There isn’t a great ‘common space’. There’s couches and chairs spread out around property.

10 person dorm was COVERED in bedbugs. When we informed the staff member on duty at 2am he said that they were aware of the issue and had fumigated. Clearly not, as the three of us in the room found our mattresses and all the walls of the pod bed crawling with bedbugs. Would not trust them to be able to properly take care of the issue going forward and taking bookings for a dorm room (or anywhere in the hostel!) with an known and unresolved bedbug problem is irresponsible, disgusting, and greedy. This hostel is NOT worth the low price or good location. Reviews going back 8 months mention a bedbug problem so it is clear this hostel has no interest in getting the issue under control.

A really great place to stay and very affordable. The room was very nice and clean and there were lots of toilet and shower facilities. In particular, Diahana on the reception was very helpful and accommodating to my questions.

Pros: Showers have hot water and good pressure. Beds are pretty comfy and with a curtain. Space for luggage in rooms. Very good breakfast. The neighborhood it’s in is nice. Cons: Before I arrived I asked about getting to the hostel because I would not have service to call an Uber considering I just arrived… they told me they have a shuttle at the airport that is $15 and not to take a taxi because they are not safe. I told them (again) I would arrive by bus, they told me to take a taxi… the ones they just declared were unsafe and then told me to Uber… The showers need a deep clean as there’s a prominent smell of mold. There’s only two places with a mirror - none in the rooms either. The light for the bed doesn’t have a way to be plugged in unless you have something yourself to use. You can’t sit up in the bed space. Overall it’s WAY too expensive on weekends for what it is, but I think overall the hostels in Guatemala are subpar so this isn’t terrible comparatively.
