Cuba Linda Ekonom-Khostel Kapsuly Hostel

The place was really relaxing, and the rates work well for students staying a few days. I also liked having the option of a small private room, which is handy if you're carrying a lot of luggage. Check-in and check-out both went smoothly, and whenever I asked about booking something, they replied quickly. There's a kitchen if you want to cook, though I never needed to use it. For laptop work, there are places to sit and the internet connection is very good. I had no complaints and would contact them again if I need a few days in Asunción.

Inside, it's wonderfully quiet, and the hosts are welcoming and attentive to guests' safety. I also appreciated their reminders to keep voices down so everyone can sleep and enjoy the calm. It's a new kind of stay for me, and one I didn't regret. The location is very good. A few things to know: the entrance can be easy to miss, so look for No. 1332, the glass door beside Gatthas, the corner business. Ring the upper bell when you arrive. There are several steps on the staircase, but it's not a long climb. The area is somewhat damp and can feel quite cold depending on the temperature, though the capsules are cozy and warm. When ordering an Uber, specify the sidewalk across from Farmacenter, at No. 1332 next to Gatthas. The app kept placing my pickup right in front of the pharmacy, but the actual spot is across the road. One driver told me this was a platform tactic to lower the fare, which means passengers have to cross the road and take a risk. Let the driver know they need to turn around so you can get in, even if the app shows the pickup at Farmacenter. I can't comment on breakfast because I had to leave early, but it is included in the rate.

The staff really made me feel at home. They were friendly, attentive, and ready to help with anything, including offering advice and activity suggestions if you go out at night. They also keep an eye out for your return, which made me feel supported. The service is a 10 out of 10, maybe 100 out of 10. The only trouble is you'll hate having to leave. It's easy to get around from here: Mercado 4 is walkable, buses to all directions stop outside, and there's a 24-hour supermarket and several pharmacies nearby. The place felt welcoming, peaceful, and very clean from the moment I arrived. Both the private rooms and capsules have comfortable, spacious, air-conditioned beds and rooms, with options for different budgets. The kitchen has what you need to cook, and you can also ask for meal preparation. Bathrooms and showers are roomy, clean, and refreshing. Cameras and key lockers helped me feel secure with my belongings. The hosts respond quickly on WhatsApp and are available whenever you have a question. A highly recommended place.

The managers are so friendly, and everything is kept quiet and tidy. My teenage daughter enjoyed the capsule hotel, though we still prefer a regular room.
