I stayed in a single then a twin room - both were great, although the single room was quieter. The whole place was clean, I liked the shared kitchen and the courtyard, which has a fire pit. There’s also a communal sitting area upstairs. The breakfast was really good - fruit, toast, eggs, pancake, coffee/tea - and because I don’t eat animal products I was offered porridge and almond milk which I really appreciated. There’s a TV with Netflix. There was a place to store my bicycle. Staff were excellent. Location hard to beat.

The only downside for me was the fact that smoking is allowed in the same place people are eating, and the smoke drifts into the kitchen and upstairs to where the bedrooms are.

PRIVATE ROOM + Small but cozy room, for only €2.50 each more you have a private room which is nice > don’t expect too much + Chill area outside the room > very nice decorated and comfortable + Perfect (!) location + Breakfast included (sometimes cold eggs / pancakes, especially when you come later) + Luggage storage after check out + Social hostel where you will easily meet people

- Very hot upstairs, you have to open the windows to cool down after a hot day (our room had no windows, just the door to the chill area) - One of the staff members was getting herself tattooed while laying on the breakfast table without any protection > an absolute No Go (!) and very unhygienic - Staff ok: not friendly, not unfriendly - Never filtered water available - In the mornings a lack of paper in the bathrooms - Some shower heads weren’t functioning well - Music sometimes to loud, although almost no one was there

+ Privacy with a curtain + Plug and light next to the bed + Locker for your stuff (1 medium, 1 small) + Perfect (!) location + Breakfast included (sometimes cold eggs / pancakes, especially when you come later) + Luggage storage after check out + Social hostel where you will easily meet people

- Staff ok: not friendly, not unfriendly - Never filtered water available - In the mornings a lack of paper in the bathrooms (mens) - Some shower heads weren’t functioning well - Music sometimes to loud, although almost no one was there > understand the needs of the guests better

The staff was amazing, very friendly and helpful. The Hostel was very lovely, and location was amazing and the breakfast was very delicious. Also was able to meet very lovely guests too.

The bathrooms weren’t very clean, they needed a little bit more of maintenance everyday day.

Excellent value for money! Snail is perfectly located in downtown San Cris, less than 5 minutes walking to the Zocalo. The hostel is super clean, with modern equipment (TV with Netflix, good Wifi, electric and USB sockets at each bed, etc.). It can be cold at night but there are extra blankets so it's really not a problem. The patio is a real plus to eat your (free!) breakfast in the morning or to relax after a long day wandering in the city and its surroundings. The staff was super nice and helpful! I 100% recommend Snail Bed and Breakfast!

Nothing !

I stayed in the tiny private room which gave me the privacy I needed. The design of the house is charming, the bathroom is really clean and wifi is properly good. the staff is adorable and really helpful! Be prepared to be cold at night but they have really warm blankets to your disposition, just ask !

Maybe a tiny bit more expensive that what I would have priced but worth it for the environments

The hostel was perfect for staying in San Cristóbal! It’s perfectly located and very clean. You get a tasty breakfast to have a good start into the day. Also the personal was veryyy helpful and friendly. Just be aware: it can get a little cold there. But you can get extra blankets! Also pay attention with the free water - it wasn’t good for us. Stay safe and buy plastic bottles instead.

beautiful building and really central, breakfast was amazing and nice big table to eat with other travellers. staff helped me loads to find information about trips and tours. loved it.

We already stayed here twice on our trip through Central America and we would come back another time! It’s an awesome quit hostel but still easy to meet people. You get a great breakfast in the morning and everything is walkable from there. We can highly recommended this hostel!

Great backpacker groups; not much smoking. Excellent location. Private-ish beds are nice. Excellent locker sizes. I love the separate bathrooms too. Kitchen is a great size.
