El Salvador International Airport

Hostal Doña Marta

San Salvador

The hostel is located in a gated community. We took an uber, so it was somewhat straightforward to find (GPS helps). The hostel is also home to a family who uses the living room area/kitchen/dining rooms for personal use. The kitchen was often closed when the family was in there, and we felt awkward knocking to get our food and then putting it back. They had their dresser there, and it felt that's where they got ready for school/bed/etc. (the kitchen was closed a lot) Also, there was not a way to label your food to keep it separate from the family/guests. There were two packed fridges, and we barely found space for our leftovers. There also were not any guests when we stayed. There was construction going from very early on. The pool was not filled in case you were wondering. The rooms are quite spacious and were relatively clean. We were about to go to bed and realized ants were crawling under the sheets. Wifi was decent, but it did not work in our room. The breakfast was ok. For the price, it works but not much of a "hostel vibe" if that's what you're looking for.

Far from everything

Though it's a bit difficult to find (we had to ask locals on the street for help) we're glad we stumbled on this hostel. For $20, we got a big private room for 2 with 2 comfortable beds and private shower. For breakfast they accommodated for our vegan diet and made beans, fried plantains, fruit salad, and bread. My understanding is that the typical breakfast is beans, plantains, and traditional 'ranch' eggs. The staff was nice and helpful, and helped us out with bus routes, and suggested places to visit.

Great hostel with Excellent Breakfast

I've been in different hostels in San Salvador. By far, the best quality-price of them. Big clean rooms, with proper private bathroom and the family stay makes it a nice option. Just too comments: if you are looking for privacy, being in their house can be a cons. Also, although the area is safe, there is bad connection with public transport to the main city attractions, so take into account that at leas you'll have to pay taxi to leave and come back...

Clean but far

We stayed here in transit for one night after previously spending a month in El Salvador. The staff were friendly, room was clean and spacious with a huge bed and comfortable. Well priced and there is a great papouseria on the corner literally 1 min walk outside the hostel. Would definitely recommend this place. The guys speak English as well if you have little Spanish. 

Great hostel, great staff

The owner and staff super great and very attentive, the food was fresh and great. Able to receive from the owner Mr. Eduardo, lots of information related to culture, culinary traditions, history, current events and was helpful in providing transportation direction, has a reliable and trusting taxi service. The place is quiet and you can access transportation to other cities in El Salvador, since you can walk to the bus terminal.
