    The only downside is it’s a little far from the bars and beaches in La Punta

    Loveeeed staying in this hostel, my favourite one so far thanks to the amazing vibes from the team! Everyone goes out of their way to make travellers feel welcome - shout out to Mr. Fidel who organised one of the best sunset watches in Mexico! Gracias amores!

    Great vibe in the hostel, lots of space to chill and hang out with other guests. Beds were good, pool was really nice to cool down in and it had a kitchen for guests to cook in too.

    Welcoming hostel and staff. The location allows you to see a different side of Puerto than La Punta, with a swimmers beach close by. I stayed here for a few days and then nearer Zicatela for the next to see the whole area

    the rooms were really hot during the day but also at night. most of the guests I spoke to were feeling sleep deprived due to the heat. there’s no natural airflow and the ceiling fan is weak. a few big box fans or AC in the rooms would make such a difference. noise goes until midnight so bring earplugs if you want to sleep before them (although staff are very strict about the noise stopping at this time).

    social hostel, good place to make friends and opportunity to party if you want to. age group is early 20s-30s. the Wi-Fi is strong and I liked that there was a kitchen there (although you can’t drink your own alcoholic beverages while the bar is open). coffee and OJ was so good in the morning! staff are friendly and helpful. lots of organized group activities you can book the hostel.

    NOT APPLICABLE 🙅🏻‍♀️

    Everything. The pool, people, places to chill. Been traveling for 4 months and I had the best time here out of all my hostels. Staff are amazing and do everything they can to ensure you have fun and you’re included in everything. rooms and shared bathrooms are a decent size, enough room for everyone and their bags.

    No key to the room a guy came to our room at 4am. Deposit for bad sheet. Kitchen - equipment old, quite dirty, there was no hot water so it was impossible to fight with microbes. It was necessary to go to reception to get the plates. There was no lightening to make the fire.

    The hostel looks quite fancy with decent standard, each night there is some entertainment event. The swimming pool was awesome. There was also a lot of different trip possibilities.

    The room had quite a number of bugs in it, including a baby gecko. The showers being located far from our room so we had to go through the entire hostel in a towel to use them.

    Staff and guests all seemed very friendly. Loads of daily activities to get involved in if you want. The pool is small but very nice!

    The biggest problem is about the cleaning and the place needs an update, our bed was super squeaky sound the hole night and sadly our room was next to the entry door of the hostel we had a terrible sleep the 3 nights

    This is the second time I stay in this Hostel. I love the environment very inclusive and the staff is really fun!

    The common kitchen was really dirty. The cleaners cleaned it every morning but the travelers didn’t really care. The location is pretty far from the beaches.

    The WiFi is strong enough for the people who work remotely. The swimming pool is really nice to relax and cool off. They organise nice daily events to connect with other travelers, like make your own pizza night. After 12 the music stops and people who want to party need to leave so there’s quiet hours for the people who need or want to get up early. It was close to the supermarket and shops.

    It could be a bit cleaner, but because there were so many pro's you dont even notice this that much.

    It is such a social hostel. All employees make sure you feel at home. Especially José, he made the stay so fun. Besides that, nice clean pool and really big dorms.

    I was staying in a dorm and during the night multiple times people would turn on the lights or talk very loud or both. But I think I was a bit unlucky with my roommates because I heard that another dorm room was not like this. It was a bit frustrating with a jet lag and lack of sleep.

    It’s a pretty hostel with a good breakfast and a very nice pool. I had a great time during the day but it’s also a bit of a party hostel.

    a few of our beds were covered in bugs! but hostel life. some of the staff were a little stand offish and didn’t seem interested in communicating with us but the girl who booked our taxis was awesome! super helpful and very friendly

    the property itself was beautiful!! we had so much fun and the atmosphere went off at night.

    The beaches are around 15 minutes footbalk from the hostel (but honestly the pool compensates as the huge waves afer some time can be really annoying). Plus the old mattresses are being changed for super comfy new ones right now.

    I loved staying in this hostel! I ended up staying there for a week even though I only had 4 weeks of visa in Mexico haha. The pool area is amazing and also easy to connect as people are forced to get away from their smartphones. ;-) The different activities are a lot of fun, loved especially the beer pong (that unfortunately not many hostels have these days). The team is great, it was always clean and the all you can eat breakfast for 80 Pesos only is unbeatable. There's everything you need - a bar, free filtered water, foosball and billiard table, hammocks, in the dorms curtains, en-suite bathroom, a provided towel etc.

    This hostel is such a good vibe - I stayed 2 nights and then came back and spent 10 days here! For sure the best hostel to meet cool, chill and fun people :) Loved playing volleyball, hanging out in the hammocks and chill spaces and the breakfast is cheap and yummy - so ideal! Thank you to Eric, Caro and the team for making my stay sooo special, and for being such warm and welcoming people.. I hope to be back again!
