I had a great experience at this hostel! The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with a fun, earthy vibe. The staff were exceptional, going above and beyond to assist us. The room I stayed in was okay for the price, but had some drawbacks like cold water and thin walls. Overall, the value was good, especially considering the price, and Google the dog is a delightful bonus!

Hostel Erupción offers a genuine experience with a welcoming family atmosphere and passionate local staff. The rooftop view is stunning, adding to the charm of the location. However, our room had mildew, and we encountered noise issues from the terrace. The breakfast was basic but tasty, which made our stay quite pleasant overall.

I spent a night at this hostel, which offered everything I needed at a budget-friendly price. The location is super convenient, right next to bars and restaurants, and the food at the hostel’s restaurant was great. While I enjoyed my stay overall, I was disappointed with the lukewarm water in the shower. Still, the strong Wi-Fi and the friendly atmosphere made it a worthwhile experience.

I had a decent stay overall, mainly due to the central location in Banos that made it easy to explore everything from activities to dining. While the hostel was clean and the staff were helpful, I did face some issues with my shower drain, which was a bit of a hassle. The breakfast was average but fueled me until lunch. It's a suitable option if you're on a budget.
