Liked: -Staff very friendly and helpful -Property clean and orderly -Wi-fi worked well -Hot shower

Disliked: -Breakfast was so-so -Room perhaps overpriced for age of property and location -Jets flying low overhead (really loud) until past midnight -Location is **horrible**: there are no bars, and almost no restaurants (just fried food stalls) within walking distance; when I walked out at night to find food at 8:30 pm the streets around the hostel were totally deserted and it felt unsafe. It was a 10 minute walk to the nearest food stall, which was at the Malecón along the river. If you are looking for an area with places to sit and eat, have coffee, or perhaps go to a bar and drink within safe walking distance, there is no way I would recommend Tangara. I can't really think of a type of traveller this location would appeal to.

Liked: The staff was quite helpful.

Disliked: There were cobwebs in the room. The location was a bit sketchy, especially at night. The staff did a good job of warning us about that, and gave us maps to give to any taxi driver who would bring us back at night.

The property's response is...

Liked: i arrived here early and they managed to accomodate me in fact my room was ready. the place is secure and the staff is very helpfull. the room is large and bed was comfortable and plenty of hot water and good pressure. breakfast this morning was excellent. my only complaint is that the airplanes take off just over head during the day every 15 minutes or so until about 10 pm then mostly stop until morning. fan in room helped to drown out noise. otherwise it was perfect choice.

Disliked: noisy when planes take off and can´t hear television in room
