FAQ:
Is it safe to take taxis in Managua? It is generally safe to take taxis in Managua during daytime hours, however, we recommend that our guests be very cautious when taking random taxis off the street or from transportation terminals and bus stops after dark. First of all, make sure that the taxi has the markings of a legitimate taxi, i.e. has red and white colored license plates (take note of the license plate number before entering the taxi), has a cooperativa symbol painted at the front drivers side and has a checker-board sticker painted along the full length of the car. Secondly, you can ask to see the taxi drivers license.
Is it safe to walk in the area around the hostel?
Yes, it is generally safe to walk in the neighborhood, named Colonial Los Robles, in which the hostel is located. However, guests should always take precautions by not carrying more money than they need to and by locking up there passport and other valuables at the hostel.
How late is the reception open?
The reception area is open between the hours of 8am and 11pm. However, guests arriving after 11pm (or before 8am) are still welcome to stay with us and will be attended to by the overnight staff. Please note that you will need to present a valid passport to the overnight staff upon arrival which will be returned to you in the morning once the reception is reopened.
I understand the hostel is split between two properties. What is the difference between the two buildings?
Our second property is located approximately a 3 minute walk from the main property. The main difference between the two properties is that the swimming pool is located at the main property while we offer a rancho with hammocks at the second building. However, our guests are welcome to take advantage of all the facilities of the hostel, including the swimming pool, regardless of which house they choose to stay in.
