Featuring a shared lounge, a terrace and barbecue facilities, El Costeñito Hostal is located in Veracruz and is 6.3 miles from Castle of San Juan de Ulúa.
Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.
Staff was friendly, great location close to shops, zocalo, port, and restaurants. I found the wifi pretty decent for working (video conferencing more specifically). Very good air con.
It was my first visit to Veracruz. The hotel is cheap and not very cheerful. The location is near the port and the prominade is great to walk on along the ocean. The room was basic, but it is fine at the price level.
The staff were friendly but no one could speak any English so had to use the translator all the time. It's a great location for the beach, shops and restaurants which are with a five minute walk.
The breakfast buffet was great, with a lot of options and nice espresso coffee (which is difficult to get in Mexico!).
The staff was very kind, also with our twin daughters.
Great location: quiet place and almost a private beach.
Great staff, The hostel is in a great location and the room has Aircon which is a luxury in a hostel. Also I really enjoyed not making my bed up it was already made for me at other hostels they make you make own bed up.
