Hyggelig is a hostel designed for the enjoyment and satisfaction of the guest. Wifi is available in all the apartment. The hosts are keen to make guests feel at home. Hyggelig is a word in Danish. Its literal translation would be something like "to feel comfortable in a cozy place", but these words cannot, by any means, capture the essence of Hyggelig; Is something that must be experienced to understand the concept.

Hostal Hyggelig - awesome
Absolutely fantastic!! Couldn't have asked for a better family to stay with. The rooms are clean and spacious, and the breakfast is generous and delicious. The rooftop is a perfect place to relax and has great views of the surrounding city. Ernesto and his family were exceedingly helpful in assisting us with any questions and made us feel right at home. The Hostal is within walking distance to all the main attractions in the city, so would highly recommend this Hostal!!
