Booked one day off requested change in date was given the hope could be done , was stringed along until the time to cancel became the day to check in could no longer cancel on line !

Location next to the beach! Good brrakfast and many activities. Very noisy room, since the window could not be closed and it was facing the street.

Che lagarto was very good stay for the price and the prime location near the beach and 2 party hostels. I had to change rooms but no big deal.. The bed was comfy, the bathrooms were fairly clean but I think they could be cleaner. Erika was really nice and caring volunteer, she made an amazing breakfast buffet for the morning. I only stayed one night but I would recommend this hostel anytime.
