The atmosphere was great! The people were all kind and it was easy to start a conversation with anyone. I'd come back on my next stay and would recommend it to anyone!

As people who rarely stay in hostels—and had very little hostel experience before this trip—we were pleasantly surprised by Maya Papaya. We booked a private double room facing the bar area and, despite our initial concerns, we never found the room to be noisy. The social atmosphere was lively without being disruptive. The room itself was extremely small—smaller than we expected. It felt a little cramped at times, with no chair or small table to place bags or personal items, and only one set of hangers, which wasn't quite enough for our needs. However, for a hostel, the room was clean and functional. One area where Maya Papaya really stood out was the communal facilities. The shared bathrooms and showers were consistently clean, well maintained, and in great condition throughout our stay. The highlight of the hostel was definitely the bar and happy hour. The staff created a fun, welcoming atmosphere that made it easy to meet people and relax. In fact, one evening we planned to have a single drink before heading out to explore Antigua, but the vibe was so good that we ended up staying there all night instead. The hostel strikes a great balance between authentic Antigua charm and a modern, clean environment. Even as travelers who don't typically choose hostels, we had a genuinely enjoyable stay. I would happily recommend Maya Papaya to others and would consider returning on a future visit to Antigua.

Very clean and comfortable rooms, and bathroom. The stuff is very friendly. Alexis and Carlos wants to make you feel good all time, great job. For me great to have a small sports station with pull-up bar and yoga mats :)

That I unfortunately had to leave for the Salsa Night for the Vulkantrek. Could be a little more social events though
