So, i am incredibly disappointed with my stay, because we had booked private rooms for more safety. None of it worked, someone entered our private room and stole my debit cards and important documents as well as cash. Ubers cant reach the location so you have to walk to the backstreet exposing yourself to multiple risk, because it’s relatively close to tepito. All in all i am incredibly disappointed in the experience.

HOSTEL MUNDO JOVEN, NO ES PARA FAMILIAS

Bien, en primer lugar no te anticipan claramente su política de hospedaje, si tienes una familia de 5 integrantes y rentas una habitación con 6 camas por que es la opción que te dan y te la cobran por adelantado, ya en recepción te dicen que niños no pueden pasar ya que la sexta cama se renta a otro adulto y desde ahí empieza el viacrucis, tú tienes la idea de que ya esa habitación es tuya, pero no y la recepcionista de la mañana burlona, déspota, grosera, todo te lo complica, pero bueno de ahí en más lo demás es pasable, solo no recomiendo este lugar para familias con niños o adolescentes, no es el giro, pero igual no te lo dicen
