Should Have Read the Guidebook

Just found this in a guidebook I clearly didn't look at very closely...It's about Hotel Backpacker, the place where we worked prior to going to Casa...

"Well-it's the cheapest place in town, which means its very popular with the backpackers who seem able to endure the impovershed foam beds in a large dormitory room with no privacy and brisk cold showers. The riverfront location is ideal, though, and the property even boasts a lakeside restaurant, a bar, and internet service. The staff isn't happy or helpful.

While staying at Hotel Backpackers, you may hear about Casa Guatemala Orphanage, which the hotel supports. There are rumors about whether the money actually makes it to the children, many of whom appear to be working here. The director has also started a rather controversial program where peoplee pay to volunteer at Casa Guatemala. There have been reports of volunteers being treated badly."
