Backpackers for Backpackers!

Our accommodation is set amidst a picturesque tree-lined setting and is just 10 minutes from the international airport and bus terminals! If you need Air Conditioner please ask in the desk of guest house.

WATCH OUT: Some taxi drivers might tell you we are closed or full, ect. Simply, because they want to take you to a big hotel to get a big comission, if this happens try another taxi !!! If it is the first time you are visiting Nicaragua, and are going to take a Taxi Cab, first don't get into the first Taxi Cab, first ask the rate to your destination. behind that cab would be another one that will take you for a cheaper fare.

If you are coming through the airport take the Taxi Cab that is moving not the one that is parked. They are as expensive as those that are in the parking lot of the airport.
According to official UN reports regarding personal safety, Nicaragua is the second safest nation in the Americas, after Canada. If you come to Nicaragua and someone tries to mug you, all you have to do is yell. The assailant will then be captured, beaten, tied and handed over to the police by the citizens themselves. This is Nicaragua, sweetly violent!
