Three Monkeys Hostel Reviews

Three Monkeys Hostel is in Antigua, one of the main spots for travelers backpacking around Guatemala. The Colonial town is full of hostels, and hence travelers have a wide choice. Three Monkeys has a good reputation among backpackers and it offers a nice stay.

The Location

It is located right inside the town, slightly further away from the main square, compared to many other hostels, but near bars and clubs. The town is so small anyway that everything is at walking distance. The local bus station is about twenty minutes away by foot and shuttles usually do pickups from the hostel.

Rooms and Bathrooms

The hostel is not very big and has higher and lower quality of dorms, depending on whether there is an en suite bathroom or not. Dorms have bunk beds and they usually have eight beds. Each bed has a personal light and a plug to charge personal items, which is very useful. Lockers are also available and are located underneath the bed. Bathrooms are inside or outside the room (depending on the type of dorm chosen) and there are many toilets and showers available for such a small hostel, so usually there is not waiting time. Cleanliness is taken seriously and we find everything very clean.

Common Spaces

The hostel has a kitchen available to guests, offers free breakfast, has a TV room with Netflix, a bar, and a rooftop terrace. Hammocks are always available inside the property, making the whole stay nice and relaxed. Each night there is a different event and it is fairly easy to meet other people. The vibe is chill and enjoyable, but not much party is going on and at nighttime during the week it seems to be very quiet.

The hostel also works as a travel agency, but the tours are usually overpriced compared to other places so we suggest to walk into town to find better deals. It also has a laundry service, which is both quick and cheap.

Summary

All in all, it is a very nice stay. We enjoyed the the bar and the hammocks a lot and the free breakfast is also tasty and a good portion. It may be not the most party hostel, so if that is what you are looking for, we suggest you look elsewhere, but other than that it is a great value.
