The Sla Boutique Hostel must look like heaven after days spent traveling on mini-buses and motos. Dorm rooms start at a mere $8. The sheets are starch-white, the kitchen dust-free, the low-back bar stools comfortable (and the mojitos just $1.5). The hostel caters to young travelers, but old hands will recognize the value. The place feels like home, with a shared kitchen for cooking and a big dining table for communal eating`. It’s the kind of place to turn strangers into friends and conversations into memories. Private rooms are available, too. Sla Boutique Hostel, #15 Street 174.
