This hostel was very convenient and very helpful with my travels, with a beautiful view. They fill anyones traveling needs. The view of fuego de volcán was absolutely stunning. It has a very nice roof top within the heart of antigua with a 360 view of the city. Only blocks away from Arco de Santa Catalina. It also had a grill which was nice when hanging out on the patio.Close to a Atm that even takes even my Canadian debit. I really like how there was a safe to lock anything important aswell. The owner is a very trust worthy and smart guy who is always willing to help you with the best deals and places to go. They even hooked me up with taxis that I could trust to be on time for a good price. Everyone at the hostel is very happy and the prices are really good for what you get. Overall my experience wouldn't be nearly as good if I didn't stay with Imperial. Can't wait for the next time...
