Very nice amenities the staff was very accommodating with the exception of the usual unruly drunken annoying hostel guests from mainly the USA and all points west the Mayan monkey is worth a revisit I’ve been to hostels in the USA where I would never step foot inside of them again
I was only there 3 days and it was the best time. The guest and staff amazing. Loved that everything was walking distance and the activities hosted by the hostel were such a great time.
Overall, it’s not a bad place, but I didn’t expect that staying in the mixed dormitory would mean being woken at 4 in the morning by drunk people who felt the need to drag a mattress off the curtained bed and have loud sex in the middle off the room where everyone could see them. Even for a hostel style accommodation in Cancun, that was over the top. Probably wouldn’t stay there again.
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
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
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.
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.
