What an exceptionally lovely hostel! All the staff and volunteers go out of their way to be friendly and helpful, and as a result the hostel has a very welcoming atmosphere. I would definitely recommend this place for solo travellers as it's really easy to feel at home at the hostel, particularly with the activities offered (e.g. group meals). Wonderful location and vibes, wish I could have stayed longer!

Super nice and cozy place! Lots and plants and very nice atmosphere. Colorado the owner is super welcoming and always helpful. The dorm room has an AC which was really good for sleeping and you can get extra blankets if you need. Location is great, nice and quiet but just a few steps away from the main party area. Lots of cheap eating options around and very close to the beach. Had a great time, will come back for sure!

Great atmosphere-home away from home. Great for solo travellers, everyone, in particular Colorado the owner makes you feel like you're part of the family. I was sad to leave . Good wifi and near the beach

The hostel with the best, welcoming atmosphere in Ecuador! The staff was very friendly and open. It's quiet, you can easily get rest. It's 1 min to the beach. Everything you need is close. Colorado is the most wonderful person you can meet on the way - after the long travel I felt as at home. Thank you, Colorado :) The internet is very strong! I wish to come back just to have a small chat with them once more.

One of the best hostels in the world, everything is perfect. You feel at home as soon as you step in, everybody is warm and welcoming. The location is great, very close to everything and the beach but still peaceful and away from the general noise. The room was always clean and hot water is present all day. Hostel's restaurant has very fair prices for food and drinks. The social area just has a nice feeling to work or meet people. On one occacion there was an empanada event where all the guests did their empanadas and ate together, it was a very nice night to spend. I would stay here all the time if I could, an experience not to be forgetten.

The atmosphere in the hostel is absolutely amazing! The staff immediately makes you feel at home and serves delicious meal (vegetarian <3) place gives the option to chill out but also if you want to party it's just few minutes away from the center. It's not that you meet people there, you create your travel family thanks to the volunteers, workers and the owner. The best vibes in the whole Ecuador and the place you cannot miss!

The hostel is an amazing place, with a lot of lush green plants, comfortable seating areas, hangmats and the most incredible vibe and energy. It felt like coming home from te moment l walked in. Its great to meet people but also relax and take time for your self. A great workout/gym/yoga space that you can use as well. The best thing about MamaCucha is the people that work there. Colorado (the owner) is such a wonderful guy with heart for the place and the people. He was always ready to help, had great tips and even took us on a great montainbiking adventure in the jungle. This place filled my heart and these loving memories will stay with me. 1000% recommend!
