I had a good stay with pleasant service. A couple of improvements could be made for the WiFi, pool cleanliness, and air conditioning (small portable unit that did not work well).

This is one of best hostels / hotels I’ve ever stayed at! I‘ve stayed here a few times and I’m always surprised at just how down to earth, friendly and accommodating the staff are here. Amazingly friendly and always make me feel at home.

Selina has many activities and it’s fun to stay there. The staff is amazing. It’s safe but it’s not quiet because it’s not supposed to be quiet. I liked my stay. Will stay again.

8/10 Very good

Our stay was ok, we paid a lot more than the other hostels but don't feel like we got anything more for the value. It's a nice hostel, dude to the rain we couldn't use the pool. The breakfast area stank of booze in the morning which was quite off putting.

10/10 Exceptional

The staff were amazing, they offered so many activities, it had such a relaxed and fun atmosphere, only complaint was the night time security guy was a little uptight. But all in all, an amzing experience, would definitely stay there again, and even i stayed somewhere else id have to stop by to say hi to the staff.

10/10 Exceptional

This was the BEST hostel I have ever stayed in. The bar area had amazing drinks and food, as well as staff! The environment was very chill, and had just enough quiet that you need to enjoy a vacation, but it was also very social and allowed you to branch out and meet new people. I love photo ops, and Selina had the best artsy areas for that. Overall, I would stay here over and over and over again. It was incredible.
CPeterson, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

States at both Socialtel properties ( Atitlán and Antigua) but the property in Antigua was the worst by far. Staff looked so unhappy I was afraid to ask any questions. The room was dirty and the furniture moths. Very noisy at all times; you could hear people’s steps above you. The towels were old and teared. Don’t stay here; they need major renovations and a change in attitude!

Mi habitación contaba con cabellos sobre las almohadas, al principio me brindaron con informes en recepción, posterior me solicitaron descargar la app de Selina y revisar ahí mis dudas.
FRANCISCO, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Bed bugs. Lots of bed bugs.
Byron, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The property is great, but the main thing that really took away from the experience was the loud pop music, from 9am to 10pm everyday, wherever you are on the property. Yoga room? Pop music. In your private room? Pop music.
Emilie, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Selina is nice, but there is a clear line between the backpacking traveler and the budget-aware traveler. I think Selina tries to accommodate both but it’s clear it attracts the backpacker more than the budget-aware. The common spaces are cute and quirky, but again it’s quite a young crowd that gathers in the bar in the evenings. I did have a chance to take a yoga class, it’s nice that this is an offering but the outdoor yoga space is right next to the kitchen which is also open air and the people cooking their breakfast were not mindful of their noise and speaking levels at all. Overall it was a decent stay and served its purpose - that being a cost efficient place to stay while we finalized some wedding decisions.
Bethany, 5-night trip

6/10 Good

Debido a que sobrevendieron me mandaron a un hotel casi a la par, si se puede llamar hotel, pésimo, era un cuarto donde no pude dormir ya que no tenía aire acondicionado ni ventilador, ademas que por ruido no logré dormir en toda la noche ya que sus huéspedes no pararon de hablar. Muy mala experiencia con Selina. No vuelvo ni lo recomiendo jamás.
