Nice and friendly hostel.
It's a friendly hostel with a friendly vibe. The owner Juan and his wife are very nice and warm. The volunteer Christian is a nice guy and he help me a lot whenever I need. It's a good place to stay overall. Highly recommended for travelers, especially if you like to socialize.

Wer die Stadt nicht kennt: Das Lucia Central liegt nicht unbedingt zentral, aber auch nicht unbedingt schlecht. Die Leute vom Hostel sind sehr nett und bemühen sich um dich, aber: Der bleibende Eindruck für mich war leider die Ankunft und dieser Eindruck war schlecht. Laut Hostel-Angabe ist die Rezeption von 6-24 Uhr besetzt, ich kam kurz nach 7 Uhr an, und es war niemand da. Kein Schild weist darauf hin, dass dies das Hostel ist. Die Adresse auf der automatisch generierten Buchungsbestätigung falsch, wie die Adresse lauten muss, hab ich mit dem Taxifahrer schätzomativ ermittelt. Nach einer Viertelstunde Stimmen im Hostel, die ersten Gäste werden wach, öffnen die Tür, wissen aber auch nicht, wo das Personal ist. Hab dann auf eigenes Risiko hin meine Sachen im Hostel abgestellt und bin auf Stadtspaziergang gegangen; ab dem erfolgreichen Check-in am Nachmittag war dann alles fein.
