The "Mother of Cities" was founded in 1537, and declared independence from Spain in 1811. The charming historic section can be explored on foot. The friendly Paraguayan capital, gateway to the grassy Gran Chaco region, has long been a center of music, poetry and the arts, but only in recent years has Asunción been able to escape its long history of dictatorship rule. Sites to visit include Panteon Nacional de los Heroes, Casa de la Independencia and Catedral de Nuestra Senora de Asuncion.

Hot water 24 hours.Our facilities include free breakfast and free internet (WIFI).We also have a laundry service, a kitchen for our guests, a TV room (with cable TV and DVDs), as well as board games to have fun and share with other travelers...Unless you prefer to enjoy a drink at the bar or on the terrace, listening to music, or watching hummingbirds flying in the garden, between the palm trees and the flowers
Really not a good experience. I got back after a night out and the doors which require you to be buzzed in by someone were not answered. I started to panic a bit because it’s a dodgy area and felt unsafe. No one answered for 10 minutes or so and I had to climb in over a 2 metre fence. The main issue was when I explained this to the staff the next day. They told me I was waiting 2 minutes which was not true, they then didn’t say sorry. They were mean and hostile towards me. They made me feel uncomfortable for complaining and both changed and got really mean towards me. I decided to leave and go somewhere else as I had a flight the next day at 6am and didn’t want to miss it if the door was not answered. They said they would not refund me for my last night and I said that’s their decision but not good customer service. It feels like a weird environment, I sat down on a table the first day and the owner told me I can’t sit there as she is having all her friends over this evening. It was hours before they arrived, it was just to be mean she said this. It’s in a dodgy area, which is about 20 minutes walk to the centre and longer to the attractions. There were not many people there and there was no vibe / social element. There were just people remotely working. They had no activities that could offer and they told me not to bother exploring as the attractions are very crowded. Probably one of the worst hostels I have ever stayed in and I don’t recommend.

Our Hostel is in a fully restored house which has 2 huge common rooms, bar and barbeque, a beautiful huge backyard with hammocks and lot of local vegetation. For your comfort we offer double rooms ensuite with aircon. We also have ensuite dorms, and we are the only hostel in town with aircon in all dorms.
The bed was comfortable, the wifi was good and it was clean. The staff didn't speak English but we managed to understand each other via translation apps and basic Spanish skills. We wanted to get some much needed rest after a long trip and this was the perfect place because it was very calm. Not a party place which was all we needed at the time.

The breakfast was actually pretty good for a mediocre hostel. The men's bathrooms wasn't clean nor did they have any cleaners. The men's toilet was quite unsanitary. Interacted with the hostel owners and was introduced to the stained machete (could be animal blood or etc). Joel actually came waving the machete as if it was Congo (central africa). Rooms were good but air con was soooo cold. Changed to a much better hostel which is in a better part of Asuncion and the breakfast was better and toilets much cleaner.
