Was my first time staying at hostel, I enjoyed my time even though I only stayed a few nights. It’s also conveniently located close to the beach, bars and club in the hotel zone

Convenient location as it’s right by a bus stop and there is a taco restaurant and OXXO steps away. Playa Chac Mool public access is literally across the street. The room itself was nice and comfortable. The breakfast was just ok. There are daily activities that you can join (we didn’t join any but it would be a nice option for more social people). Deducting a star because while we were there, 2 different people lost belongings (money and phone) in the property. Also after check out if you want to keep your stuff there, they charge $5 for the secure locker. Otherwise you can just leave it inside an unlocked cabinet right by the entrance and hope for the best.

The best thing about this Hotel is the location. It is right across the street from a really nice beach. The bunk bed was clean and properly assigned. I think they can reiterate the ground rules for the dorms when checking in. Lots of opportunities to socialize. I enjoyed my stay.

Have not stayed in a hostel since college, but it was the last minute the night before I go to the airport place to stay…. and it surpassed my opinion of what I thought it would be. Everybody was quiet in the actual room and respectful, but yet there is social Experiences if wanted, food nearby and everybody was kind and drinks were Great for nice price

In the beginning, I was scared when I realized I would stay in a room with other unknown people and men; I am a woman. After the first day, I felt comfortable already. The people in the room were friendly, quiet, and respectful. The front desk employees were very nice and helpful. And there is a sweet Dave. The location is great for the budget.
