Extremely friendly staff, outstanding food and a jungle like garden make this place a little oasis. The spacious semi private rooms are located in a natural stone- and wood-built sidehouse with a neat shared bathroom. I enjoyed my stay a lot and can't remember any other place during my travel where I felt as relaxed and comfortable as here.
Great restaurant and food and a gorgeous garden.
The rooms are very cute but bathrooms throughout need an upgrade.
Massage and yoga offerings are extensive and really nice
Service could be better but food was pretty good.
Great food and drinks and a lovely environment. Service can be a challenge, it often isn't clear who is working and who isn't.
This review is on the restaurant. The staff was very friendly and the food was very good. I had the “enrolladas de de acelga” and it was delicious. The homemade bread is also really good. Can’t wait to try the other dishes!
Really quiet and peaceful place. Great for relaxing. Rooms are nice and pretty clean, garden is beautiful and the owner is super nice.
Food is really great here, great vegetarian and vegan options. All the food is prepared fresh and you can taste the difference.
Horrid unsympathetic experience. Although this place has a beautiful yoga deck and the dormitory is pretty, the food is mediocre and I had a highly unpleasant experience with the manager - I was really sick (in a lot of pain and unable to leave bed) and when I realised I needed to get to a doctor and head to Antigua asap, I checked out when I was able to, at 3pm - when I asked politely whether he could make an exception to paying the next night since I'd been so ill and knew they hadn't booked the bed, the manager got defensive and angry and started lecturing me on how things were in my country (despite not knowing where I was from) and attacking me on attitudes he'd decided I held. There are numerous more charming options in town.
The atmosphere is a beautiful garden setting and private. Not too many tables to sit at. Service was poor and I was basically ignored. The cook brought my food out to me and sneezed without covering their mouth while delivering. Had the Pad Thai, it was alright. Food in San Marcos is pretty disappointing over all, especially for folks with dietary restrictions, which you wouldn't think from a hippie town but all the hippie kids seem to eat burritos, burgers and pizza.
The location is beautiful with all the plants and nice buildings. The restaurant is great, the women have a sense for preparing food. The staff is friendly. The dorm was different without high beds and within very big rooms. We had Mich more space then in most other hostels. The yoga area is big and within green surroundings a nice place to do it. The Maya sauna worth trying out as well. The place has a sense of esoteric, but this is San Marco in general. Everybody who doesn't like such surroundings should go to another village. I'm not really an esoteric guy, but enjoyed the positive and friendly spirit, of the la paz as well the village. Quite recreating!
Good cleanliness, nice ambiance, affordable prices. They give you what they offer. The restaurant is a nice option if you are vegetarian
The best in San Marcos by far.
Everting was amazing. The beds, the stuff, the FOOD.
I'm coming back
There is not much more I could have asked for. The sauna was very comfortable, food fresh and one of the more affordable in the area and the morning yoga was given by talented instructors.
Great place to stay, amazing staff and the food is fabulous!! We loved this place and surely come back!!!
I hardly feel this place deserves a star, the management is appalling , it was an agony to even get a booking as emails etc. were not answered ,then to top it off there was no hot water for the 3 days we were there, and no towels until we asked and to ice the cake we had a cabana with 4 beds (2 loft),and they were so uncomfortable (we tried all out hoping for a better sleep)that we were in pain and near tears. And the allies and walkways are so poorly (not) lit that it was difficult to find entrance to establishment at night. (Solar lights would work wonders). And when we did contact management to let him know our views he was very offensive.
