Best Hostel in San Mateo

11/27/2020

​The title is a bold claim I know, but let's dig into why.

​This hostel 
MapachoHouse will be the best hostel in Manta, Ecuador.

First things first, I own it. I bought it when I vacationed in San Mateo, Ecuador.

I thought it would be a good investment. The price was cheap the owner was soon closing shop I said why not?

Location


​The location of MapachoHouse is on the beachside of San Mateo, in Manta Ecuador.

The good part is, we are away from the city noise and in a calm and safe area. On top of that we are 2 minutes away from the beach.

It's a beach where you go surfing and since there are fewer people there. You keep this beauty for yourself. I know what you're thinking.

What if I want to get to the city and eat out and party or explore? We have you covered, there is a bus that cycles right in front of Mapacho and I mean right in front of our door.

That can take you there and it costs $0.50 just to take it around Manta. (beats a taxi any day, huh).


Renovations 

​


After I bought half of MapachoHouse. My partner and I decided we should renovate it.

So we added more beds painted the walls, added new furniture, the bathrooms were completely redone.

​When Coronavirus hit, we spent the last 9 months slowly renovating thinking about what our guests might use or need.

We invested in our new bar, improved the look of the terrace. We also invested in new technologies and our online presence.

In fact, we are still renovating even though we finished our original plan. Just to make our hostel even better than before.

​​Things to Do 


I
talked about renovations, but not what entertainments are there and what to do around San Mateo.

One thing we have invested heavily in mapachoHouse is the bar, making sure there are enough drinks for the guests and comfortable seats for people to sit in and relax.

There is ping pong and a foosball table on the terrace near the bar so you can drink and play with friends at the same time. There is a smart tv in the reception area so you can watch Netflix and other programs.

If you want to do Outside activities. We rent out surfboards so you can surf the beaches. There are restaurants near us that are a 1-minute walk.

​Where you can eat local food and taste what Ecuadorians eat. Soon we plan to add a Nintendo switch for guests with kids, and a computer for people who need to search online or work.



Rooms and there rates 


​S
o far MapachoHouse has 6 rooms total, 3 mixed, and 3 private.

This allows us to cater to people of all income brackets. Depending on the season, we charge from $5 to $25 for mixed and $25 to $100 for private a night.

I know when I was a guest I paid $9 a night before I bought the place.

It's very cheap and with easy access to transportation and restaurants, the restaurants were even better paying under $4 to eat.

If you go to the Hilton, we all know that the room rates can be $50 plus every night, not including resort fees and other charges.


Every mixed room has fans, and each bed has its own. Every private room has air conditioning.

So the San Mateo heat can't get to you when you sleep.

Conclusion

​
​I
know calling MapachoHouse the best hostel in Manta was going too far.

Yet I know it can be and will be when a business is about the customer and not just profit.

My experience in working in retail and customer service for 5 years tells me I know what can make someone happy when they walk through my doors.

​My partner and I plan to expand the MapachoHouse name over time and add more services and improvements to make all vacationers happy. Share this blog
