Casa isabel

Chilled cheap and cheerful

Pros: The hostel is very peaceful, good size room, bathroom and shower and of course the dog max

Cons: Just the water pressure in the shower was very low

Pros: Good hangout space and kitchen. Make sure you message before arrival.

Cons: Owner not there a lot, a neighbour let me in. Max the puppy is cute but he needs some training.

Pros: The hostel is a relaxed and nice comfortable place. The price is reasonable. I recommend it.

Cons: Minor issues: the shower could be improved with more water pressure. Some outdoor furniture and kitchen areas were a bit dusty.

Pros: Casa Isabel was extremely affordable, easy to get to and with a wonderful and personable host. We enjoyed full use of the kitchen and drinking water was a bonus. A great location to explore Santa Ana.

Good Value and Friendly Atmosphere

Pros: Relaxed hostel with a friendly owner and staff. Good kitchen and two good shared bathrooms with showers. Excellent wifi. A good effort was made to keep the kitchen and bathrooms clean. The other areas were sometimes \

Quiet lovely hostel in Santa Ana

Pros: Had a four night stay here when visiting Santa Ana. A bit of confusion at first with some contradicting messages on how to get to the hostel was easily sorted out with a couple of messages on Whatsapp. The owner, Manuel, was really helpful and answered all my questions on what to do and how to get around. Hostal had just recently re-opened, so there were things being fixed. However, this didn't bother me. Hostel is a 5 min walk from the city center, which meant it was quiet but still close to the shops and restaurants. Two bathrooms, one with a hot shower (I opted for using the cold as more refreshingconsidering the average temperaturs), a large kitchen, and plenty of community space to relax. I stayed in one of the private rooms with a floor fan, which had a large comfy bed and a clothing rack to hang your clothes. Overall, I really enjoyed staying at Casa Isabel, which had a more traditional hostel vibe and not too loud.

Cons: Water pressure was at one time very low (though I understood that it was being looked into, so probably being fixed in the near future). There should probably also be a rag/mat on the floor of the bathroom to dry up water after showering.

Very nice

Pros: Inside is a nice outdoor space that is partly with roof so you can enjoy the evenings in a quiet area right in front of your room.

Highly recommend this friendly and welcoming hostel in a good location in Santa Ana

Pros: Manuel was so welcoming and has made the hostel such a friendly place to be. The facilities need some work but I would highly rate this hostel. A bonus is the rooms are huge!

Pros: The host is so super friendly! This hostel with a little bit of work and love is going to be great! His now working on redoing the bathrooms and then the kitchen

Cons: They were a lot of moskitos

Great value for money

Pros: The courtyard was lovely to chill in. The kitchen was well equipped with everything you needed. Free filter water. Large bedrooms. Manuel was very helpful.

Cons: The bathrooms weren't the best. They were being renovated so I would say they would improve. Needs a little love in some places but would recommend for the price. Cheapest around for sure
