De accommodatie is erg vies, de gemeenschappelijke ruimtes kunnen wel een poetsbeurt gebruiken. De kamer zelf stond blank van de lekkende airco, er viel zand vanuit het plafond naar beneden waardoor de bedden bezaaid waren met zand. Het personeel is druk met vanalles behalve mensen helpen, inchecken duurde 1,5 uur en wisselgeld hadden ze niet waardoor we daar onze gehele verblijf naar moesten vragen. De eigenaar smeekte ons nog geen review achtertelaten. Abaoluut geen aanrader!!!!

Traduzido para inglês

The accommodation is very dirty, the common areas could use a bath. The room itself was empty from the leaky air conditioning, there was a lot of sand from the ceiling downwards which made the beds covered with sand. The staff is busy with everything except helping people, the check-in took 1.5 hours and they had no change money so we had to ask about our entire stay there. The owner begged us not to leave any review behind.

maybe nice location, but otherwise not worth your money. Very dirty. They wouldn't let me check in during check in hours and said my bed was sold but I can have the same bed for three times the price now. Volunteers were friendly and helpful but the person running this hostel is a crazy person who hung up on the phone and started to pathetically gaslight and threaten me on whatsapp. Wouldn't go there if I were you.

Just run. This is the dirtiest hostel I’ve ever been in. Everything smelled bad, the kitchen and the toilets were disgusting, you could hear all the noise in the street every night, the AC in my room was barely breething. The light in my room and in the bathroom was allways flickering. But the smell was the worst. I could not eat breakfast there allthough it was free - the first day I’ve seen a girl pulling out a hair from the coffee and that was enough. They have zero activities for guests.

The hostel is in very bad conditions, rooms are small with old beds. They change the rate last minute prior tho NYE to triple the price. Decent breakfast but that’s all.

Ich kann die guten Bewertungen leider nicht nachvollziehen. In den zwei Tagen, an denen ich da war, habe ich keine Putzkraft gesehen und es gab in mehreren Bädern Ameisen und viel Sand in der Dusche. Die Bar war leider nicht geöffnet und auch sonst gab es nicht wie angegeben Aktivitäten vom Hostel. Das Dorm für 4 Personen ist bei voller Besetzung viel zu klein, um die Rucksäcke zu verstauen.

I can't understand the good reviews unfortunately. in the two days that I was there, I didn't see any putzkraft and there were ants in several bathrooms and a lot of sand in the shower. the bar was unfortunately not open and there were also no other activities from the hostel as indicated. the dorm for 4 persons is much too small to store the backpacks at full occupancy.

DIE SCHRECKLICHSTE HERBERGE IN MONTANITA! Der Besitzer ist nie anwesend, er spricht kein Wort Englisch, obwohl er scheint, seit Jahren dort zu arbeiten, und er hat immer Kleidung ist ungepflegt und spielt keine Rolle. Im Bad hatte es Scheißhaken, und im Chill-Bereich der zu klein und unbequem ist, hatte es auch Krabben und andere haben viele andere schlechte Erfahrungen, aber leider man max 500 Zeichen

The owner is not present, he doesn't speak a word of English, although he seems to have worked there for years, and he has always Clothing is unkempt and plays no role. im Bad it had shithooks, and in the chill-zone which is too small and uncomfortable, it also had crabs and others have many other bad experiences, but unfortunately man max 500 characters

The staff here were great and very helpful! The property felt very unclean. In the one room we had there was a plastic tarp on the roof to stop water dripping that was moldy and disgusting. Room smelled like mold and the other room we had smelled very musty and the whole place felt super unclean. Would definitely not stay here again or recommend this place to anyone else. The price is cheap, but definitely not worth the money, for $3 more a night you can stay in the town square at a very nice ho...

We booked three nights in a private room. However when we arrived they had messed up the booking and only space in a dorm for the first night. Once we put our stuff in the room we got told, whether we are aware that the price has increased for the 2&3 night from 7 to 17$ per person. Eventhough we made the booking for 7$. Then we left for an hour to figure out a new place to stay for the 2&3 night. When we came back the told us that now the dorm got booked by someone else so we had no place to s...

Dieses Hostel ist eins der Besten in denen ich je war. Anfangs wollte ich 5 Tage bleiben, geblieben bin ich 3 Wochen. Das Hostel ist sehr sozial mit großem Gemeinschaftsraum und die Dorms sind auch top. Die Lage ist 3 Minuten vom Strand und 5 vom Zentrum. Perfekt um in Ruhe schlafen zu können, aber trotzdem zentral. Das Beste waren aber die Mitarbeiter die einem ein sehr familiäres Gefühl gegeben haben. Ich wurde zum Beispiel ständig zum Essen eingeladen. Und das alles zu einem Top-Preis! 1...

This hostel is one of the best I have ever been to. I originally wanted to stay for 5 days, I stayed for 3 weeks. The hostel is very social with a large common area and the Dorms are also top notch. The location is 3 minutes from the beach and 5 minutes from the center. Perfect for a quiet sleep, but still central. But the best thing was the staff who gave you a very familiar feeling. I was constantly invited to dinner, for example. And all this at a top price! 10/10

I definitely recommend Iguanas. The hosts are genuinely nice and inviting and help you feel at home. It's great value for money and the facilities are cleaned regularly. Beds are comfy. I was there during off season, was pretty empty so can't really attest of the party vibes.
