Visiting, here for the first time, Rutt (Ruth) speaks perfect english, and hostel is clean, and spacious. I would recommend hee as a first stop off More

I'm also very late with my review and have been meaning to write it since I got back to London. I've done a lot of travelling all over the world and have probably stayed in at least 150 different hotels/hostels/B&Bs and Guatefriends B&B in Guatemala City is easily one of my favourites. I found them randomly on the internet and... More

I'm very late with this review but I enjoyed my stay very much. Very friendly atmosphere. Joe & Anna were terrific. At one dinner, Joe treated us to an exotic fruit tasting. It was fabulous. Close to the airport and a 15-minute taxi ride to the center. I became ill on my visit and Joe noticed my distress and took... More

I am a resident and citizen of Central America who travels frequently to other countries, including Guatemala. We stayed at GuateFriends because it is very reasonably priced, has a great location for traveling around the city, it's close to the the airport, has super friendly owners and great food. We live in the States and I am sure most of... More

We stayed at Guatefriend's just for one night before flying out of the country and it was very convenient. It's 1km from the airport and the price included a ride to the airport, which was great.

3 simple words: -Hospitality -Relaxed -Safe My girlfriend and I stayed at GuateFriends while passing through Guatemala City. Great rooms, good food and a friendly and relaxing atmosphere. We can only advice travellers to visit the family. All the best from Tanja and Martin, Denmark. More

Showed up late and in the rain because of a airline delay, and Anna was more than helpful in easing my aggravation. Joe had delicious warm drinks that we were not expecting and were not accustomed to waiting for us when we arrived. The beds were clean and smelled fresh. The colors of the rooms and decor really gave me... More

Joe and Anna were lovely people. they couldn't do enough to make my stay happy. The food was wonderful and I had many 'menu' conversations with Joe. I will even try to grow a few fruits when I am back home due to his knowledge. Their children were a delight, and my trip to the zoo with Angelo was a... More

We (~25yrs) stayed at Guatefriends after arriving in Guatemala City late at night. We had friends who picked us up at the airport, so that we didn't need the offered shuttle. But I am sure it wouldn't have been a problem for Joe and Ana either. We really enjoyed our first night in Guate, meeting such friendly and sympatic people.... More
