Camping y Hostal El Ovejero

This place should come to mind when you think “hostel”. It is great for meeting people, if that’s what you’re here for. Very communal with a common kitchen and living room as the only place to be besides your bunk. It is not conducive to sleeping, though. The floors are very creaky and when you walk in the bedroom, the rickety bunk beds shake with every step. And whenever any of the people in the bunk bed move, the whole bed shakes. Also the doors are very squeaky and slam. And you can hear everything in the communal area from your bed. So with five people to a room, and three rooms, with different schedules, good luck getting any sleep. And the bunk beds are not comfortable. They give you clean sheets and you have to make it yourself. They give you a locker with a key but it’s a small box, not big enough for your pack if you want to lock it up while exploring for the day. Also there was no one at the front desk when we had to leave to catch our bus at 7am, and no checkout procedure in place to return your keys and get your 200 pesos deposit back. But it was in a convenient location and cheap, which is what is important!
