En dépannage

Chambre chez l'habitant à 10 bonnes minutes de marche du centre et 20 minutes pour rejoindre l'axe routier. Très bon accueil et aide du couple pour prendre un cyclo et me rendre à la station de bus pour partir. Merci.

La chambre est minuscule difficile de se tourner... Une chaise pour poser les affaires et une petite desserte déjà envahie par de la déco... Petit ventilo. Cuisine lieu sorte de garage/cave peu chaleureux au bout de la maison et retraverser la maison pour manger dans l'entrée, espace aménagé avec deux petites tables. Il y fait horriblement chaud. Deux nuits de passage c'est suffisant et pour le prix c'est ok.

Bien menos el clasismo

Es un lugar limpio y la señora muy agradable y simpática

El señor holandés ya desde la entrada me hizo saber que el idioma español no es de su agrado,curioso para vivir en Nicaragua y supuestamente tener mujer nicaragüense….me comentó que yo tenía que saber inglés para la edad que yo tenía…ósea que viajar a un país de habla hispana y comunicarme bien con los locales no era suficiente para su gusto,no vi el comentario apropiado ni necesario!! Pero si me dejo ver que no es feliz con lo que eligió en su vida,no sabré inglés pero algo de psicología si,jajajajajja pd:disfrute de la calidez latina

Great price for what you’re getting in Liberia

The place is in a good location, right around the corner from the bus stop. Very hospitable host. It’s nice having a kitchen to cook and the multi filter system on the sink is great. Plan on staying here again on my way back through Liberia

Nice hostel with awesome hosts

Clean hotel with great, friendly hosts. We used the hotel to go to Ometepe Island the next day. Had a room with air conditioning, very comfortable bed. Breakfast was delicious and varied.

Beautiful stay!

Rex, Julieta and her dog are just the cutest and super friendly. They were always happy to help. The beds were comfortable and from the hostel you can reach everything in the city by foot. It was also super clean.

The kitchen could be more equipped but they said that they want to change a lot in the kitchen area so maybe that will change soon.

Great place to stay

They welcomed us very politely and explained everything you need to know also for our next stay on Ometepe. Bedroom with toilet was great, to take a shower they provided towels but it's a shared shower AC worked very well

The location isn't really good from the bus terminal, about 15min walking Not that much (stores, restaurants) around the hostel

Bad

We had a reservation confirmed for 3 nights for this hotel in booking. When we arrived the woman first told us It's an other hotel... When i showed on maps and booking that It's this one she said that they changed the name and there is a bug on booking... it was during semana Santa so very tough To find something else. Anyway it's there responsibility to make sure there is no issue, not the customer. It's not professional at all ! As we insisted she manage to find something else for us but without apologizing, nothing... like she did not care at all. She just dropped us to the other hostel but did not make sure they had availability for 3 nights... of course they had just for 1 so we had to change again hotel after... We are travelling since 7 monthes around this continent and it's the first time we had such bad experience !

Exceptional

The owners were so helpful and friendly, it felt like i was staying with family. As far as I could see it's just the husband and wife running the hotel and they do a great job. They have a little white dog and a couple of birds. They make breakfast on request for USD $7. The location is very walkable. There are 2 good restaurants within 2 blocks of the hostel and about 5 blocks away is a main street with lots of shopping and restaurants. Their neighbors have chickens so there are a lot of animal noises but it it what it is. There are a lot of animal noises in Nicaragua period.

It would have been nice if the propane stove in the guest kitchen was working so i could have made my own food, but the owners were more than accommodating with anything i needed in the kitchen.

It is like a hut (but at least for absolutely good enough).

ok for a night when you don’t have a choice. Rivas has no good cheap options

staff is nice

I understand it is not a luxury hotel and it’s absolutely fine. however feeling the strings of the mattress all night is not great and it was very uncomfortable. it’s not particularly clean but I have seen dirtier.

The people who work there are extremely nice, comfortable bed

I think it was a bit expensive compared to elsewhere in Nicaragua but Rivas seems to be more expensive in general.

Julieta was just the nicest person ever! Even though we got stuck at the border from Costa Rica to Nicaragua, she waited for us until 10:30pm and welcomed us. everything was great and super clean, unbeatable for that price. Also called us a taxi which whose driver super friendly and cheap. see you soon

there’s nothing.

Ideal stopover for onward travel to Ometepe

Juliete is very friendly and helpful. Rooms are basic but comfortable and all you need for a stopover. Easy to walk to (15mins) from where Ticabus drops you off so no taxi required. The price reflects the accommodation standard but really it’s fine. fussy travellers go elsewhere !

The bullfrogs were rather noisy when going to sleep 😂

Disappointing

The only thing I liked was the comfortable bed and room. That's all.

1. No flexibility to leave when I wanted. The owner said she needs to go for charity 🙄 and I can leave either before (really early morning) or after (late won't work I'll miss flight). 🙃 2. The owner kept telling me I am free to go find another place. I arrived late at night and tired from Ometepe to face her kicking me out before checking in if I don't comply to her departure time requests. Very unfriendly I'd say. If you rent your place, you should let people leave whenever they want. It is NOT a jail. 3. It says hostel but there is NO access to anything a typical hostel provides. No Kitchen. No water. No hot water. No tea. No coffee. Nothing. 4. No place to hang out. That if you find anyone to talk to anyway. 5. Lack of communication before and after. But as said above the room was comfortable. Only 2 beds and very clean.

Good

location, kitchen for guests, nice porch for relaxing

Unfortunately, as in case of many places in Central America no front door key was available for guests,and, because of it, our mobility was severally restricted (including the necessity to adjust to owner schedule and/or habits) e. g. there is no way to stay on the porch longer than 10pm as the owner closes the main door and there is no negotiation about it. I can’t imagine anyone trying to get there after 10pm. To leave the hostel, we needed to inform the owner about the fact, otherwise it wouldn’t be possible to go out as everything is locked.

We needed a cheap room to sleep in for 1 night and this was fine for that.

The noise. We were ok with the fact that the room is not isolated and bugs could get in, but not with the noise of people talking right next to our room until late at night, nor with the handyman that started drilling and hammering at 7am. Please give people notice of these things.

Clean place to stay in Rivas

Friendly owner, clean room, comfortable bed.

We booked double room with private bathroom - bathroom is private and attached to the room but the shower is outside - it is private shower but everytime we go to the shower we had to pass the owner as she was sitting almost all the time just in front of our room's door... so strange. I also wanted to keep doors open to get some fresh air when we were in the room but again - the same privacy issue 🙃
