you can order a taxi upfront from everywhere in nicaragua. we recommend a 4x4 taxi, as depending on road conditions and weather, it may be that only a 4x4 can get to Maderas and up to the hostel. this is slightly more expensive, but can get you to the hostel safely. They can stop at the supermarket to get groceries and cash at Ahorra mas. Miguel: +50586894662
