Hostel Life is Good

Roman and Barbora run a wonderful hostel with amazing staff and a perfect location to explore the island of Ometepe. The food is of great quality and Roman has some excellent and unique cocktails on the menu. They know all the hidden gems, so don’t forget to ask them about anything you are curious to know!

The owner was very nice. Lots of cool stories and cosy place

Location is okay. hostel it’s self is clean and quite pretty. The prices are high but ac is included. The receptionist was really kind and helpful. we found a cockroach in our room so we went straight away to the manager to ask for a refound or at least a discount. Her answer was that it’s normal cause we r staying in a tropical country so there is no discount. Honestly for the price of a private room it was disappointing. No water for 2 nights, but not their fault. Would not recommend it t...

the owners are phenomenal! I could not fault them. if you are looking to party it's a bit out the way

für 2 nächte voll easy! freundliches personal, leckeres essen! länger würde ich nicht bleiben, da das hostel mitten im nirgendwo ist und nicht sehr viel los ist.

Wonderful place run by wonderful people! Great food, comfortable facilities, very reasonable price. They’ll help arrange anything you need, from scooter rentals to tours. The only downside of our stay was that the sinks barely worked and the toilets stopped working on two occasions.

Amazing! The owners are lovely, Friendly and helped us a lot giving us many tips for activities around the island. Location is perfect to visit left part of the island and home to Conception which starts early at 6.30am. The place is immersed in nature, clean rooms, new mattresses, cozy common space with cute bar. Really recommended!

Owners Roman and Barbara were fanatic - super helpful in every possible way. The hostel was clean and I felt right at home. I would come back without hesitation!

Such a vibe, clean and amazing food!

Owner was very helpful. Staff was kind. Breakfast was awesome. Good value flr stay but MAKE SURE you get a scooter (or other) as you will be far from most activities. It is however a prime location for the big hike.

Very nice people working in the hostel and beuatiful garden. Room did just have a window towards the common area, so that you could hear everything and smell the smoke.

We had an amazing time at the hostel life is good. We stayed for 10 days and got to know the owners fairly well. They are very kind, caring, incredible people, their hospitality is unmatched! The food they make in house is delicious! The fact that they can facilitate any tour or rental is very convenient and helpful too. The atmosphere is calm, relaxing, secure. It was like home away from home. Highly recommend staying here.

Walking distance from the Moyogalpa port. Owners are helpful and the food is very nice. I did miss some facilities to make coffee and tea yourself, or a fridge.

Great place by the port, but far from most activities on the island. Owners were incredibly nice and helpful but overall, would look to stay somewhere closer to Balgüe next time just for convenience sake. For our short visit to the island, this place was perfect.

Super hostel tenue par un couple adorable. Le soir on y trouve une ambiance famille autour du bar. Dommage cependant qu’il n’y ai pas de cuisine ce qui oblige un peu à manger au restaurant de l’hostel (mais qui est très bon) Le petit mirador sur le toit est super pour regarder le coucher de soleil le soir

We had a really nice stay here, the owners were beyond lovely and gave some amazing recommendations for activities and hiring mopeds. The food was really nice (try the chicken tikka masala). Nice common areas to sit and chat and the property was very clean. The only negative was it was a bit far from most of the activities on the island but it made it easier for the ferry on our last day

Schönes Hostel mit tollem Restaurant und nettem Personal. Ich fand die Betten leider nicht sehr bequem. Das Kissen war dünn und unter dem Bezug in Plastikfolie eingepackt. Außerdem stark chemischer Geruch nach dem Putzen, der die ganze Nacht geblieben ist.

Ein sehr schönes und gepflegtes Hostel was von einer kleinen Familie geführt wird. Das Privatzimmer war super sauber mit hochwertiger Matratze und bequemen Kissen. Ich habe in Mittelamerika selten ein so gepflegtes Hostel gesehen. Das Esser war frisch und super lecker.

Very nice owner. The location is calm and close to the port and a bit far away from the nice spots of the island but you need a scooter anyways

Overall great stay, would book again. Amazing breakfast and lots of places to chill with an affordable bar. Staff are very friendly and private room is very clean. 20 mins walk from the main town but walkable, and cheap Tuktuk to the port. Doesn’t have a kitchen & dinner is quite pricey (but affordable breakfast) which are the only negatives.
