A really beautiful and cozy hostel! Friendly stuff, very clean dorms and sanitary areas, nice rooftop, comfortable salon, amazing kitchen.. but the breakfast is the best! Coffee/ tea, toast, cereal, pancakes, fruits and beans and egs. There's is coffee all day long and cake at 5pm. The beds are comfortable and have everything you need. The wifi works well. There's also a computer. We felt really at home.

Great place to stay, felt at home, beautiful garden and super friendly staff. Breakfast was good and everything was very clean.

Breakfast was amazing! Mainly traditional Guatemalan with pancakes, coffee, juice, etc. Facilities are well-maintained. Bathrooms are clean and modern. Love the privacy curtains and the beds are comfy. Also love the interior design and the bookcase in the kitchen was a nice touch. The staff were always friendly and helpful. Definitely one of the best hostels in Antigua.

Great place to stay in Antigua! The hostel is beautifully decorated and very spacious, Well equipped kitchen, nice breakfast. The staff is super friendly. Highly recommended!

Great place, clean and very nicely set up. The staff was most helpful and nothing was ever too much trouble! The best hot showers we had in Guatemala :)

I especially love the sofas and chairs, the kitchen, the upstairs terrace and the sofa at the back where you can't hear music - it's nice and quiet. I love that we can shut all the windows and dark curtains in the dormitory to make it really excellent conditions for sleeping. I like there's a cross breeze in the big dorm and that it gets aired out every day. I appreciate it when the cleaning staff maintain a normal or quiet level of noise, not laughing, talking quite loud, joking around, playing music without earphones in different areas of the hostel, or taking a break in the dining areas listening to a bunch of stuff on their phones, etc.

Honestly it’s a great hostel — nice interior, super clean, friendly staff, definitely will stay again.

Bed was super comfortable, nice size room and everything is well clean. Liked the 24 h presence of staff at the desk and they were really helpful at all times.

Its super comfortable over all - lots of cushy chairs and sofas to watch Netflix on their big screen, or read or talk. Each bed has plugs, a fan, and USB charging port Lots of fresh air Beautiful authentic decor Lovely second floor terrace with a great view Great buffet breakfast- I thought I wanted to manage and pay for breakfast myself, but having a variety of options hot and ready to eat actually saves me time and energy that I can use for better things. And yeah, they have pancakes, like every other "free" or "included" breakfast, but they also have eggs, beans, breads, fruits, cereals, chia seeds, cinnamon and sometimes other things like oatmeal. Separate toilets and showers by gender - so nice! All the guests actually seem super calm and respectful and social.

Barbara's is my "go to place" in Antigua. It is a beautiful, comfortable, quiet, centrally located, affordable .... Hostel. And an exceptional component is the receptionist, Gabi. Gabi is so friendly and knowledgeable. She knows about restaurants, hikes, transportation, favorite places .... She is a "gem".
