    Had a chill time at Why Not! The location is perfect for exploring Antigua, and the rooms are clean. Just a bit noisy at times, but the rooftop views are worth it!

    noise insulation

    Noise insulation isn't great. conversations from the roof were easily heard in my room, which can be annoying. The building had issues with moisture on the walls, which contributed to an unpleasant odor, although a dehumidifier was provided to help. Accessing the front door required ringing a bell at night, which added a minor inconvenience.

    friendly staff
    ideal location
    limited shade
    street noise
    lack of kitchen

    The location proved ideal for accessing local attractions, making exploration effortless. The staff were notably friendly and helpful, enhancing the overall experience. However, the lack of adequate shade on the terrace limited comfortable relaxation, and noise from the nearby street occasionally disrupted the peaceful atmosphere. Additionally, the absence of a kitchen for cooking was a downside, making dining options somewhat restrictive.

    great location
    lack of kitchen

    great stay but room lacked a kitchen

    The location was perfect. I could easily walk to all the main attractions. The cleanliness was impressive, with daily thorough cleaning throughout my stay. I particularly enjoyed the spacious dorm with its individual lockers, fans, and lights for each bed. It's ideal for solo travelers looking to save while enjoying comfort. The reliable WiFi allowed me to do some light work during my stay.

    The lack of a kitchen was a downside for me.

    amenity updates

    The rooftop deck offers breathtaking views of the volcanoes, making it an ideal spot to relax after a long day. The cleanliness of the mixed dormitory room was impressive, with fresh linens and accessible lockers. While the lack of a kitchen was a bit inconvenient, the pastries available were delicious and a nice treat. Some noise from the street was occasionally disruptive, and a few amenities could be updated for better comfort.
