Guest Reviews
- Yulia (10/5): Was really good - It’s really in the center of everything. Was really easy to get there from the bus station. There isn’t anything my room specifically had air-conditioning.
- iulia (8/5): - Location was great, stuff helpful !
Small fans in the bed space - very stuffy and warm in the room, even with the small fan there was barely any fresh air
- the biggest disappointment was actually the catamaran tour they promote (and most likely get money for if you book through them). They provided inaccurate information and I really regretted booking that tour.

- Francisco (9/5): - El ambiente con el resto de huéspedes fue muy bueno. El personal muy amable en todo momento El baño a veces no estaba muy limpio. El horario del bar variaba según el día

- Alexander (8/5): -
- Carina Alejandra (10/5): - La amabilidad de los chicos que atienden el hostel!! Unos genios!! Super atentos con todo!!
- Laura (7/5): Alles in allem guter Aufenthalt, wenn es zweckmässig ist. - Sehr freundliches Personal und gute Ausstattung. Es lag perfekt in der Nähe der 5th Avenue, war aber nicht mitten im Tumult. Das Zimmer in dem ich war, war enorm feucht und roch dementsprechend. In der Nacht fühlte man sich sehr klebrig. Und natürlich ist es ein Hostel und die Türen sind nicht sehr dick, daher hörte man die Leute am Abend und teilweise auch mitten in der Nacht (Morgen um 03:00 Uhr) laut miteinander reden.
- Lisa (7/5): Ist nett aber würd nicht nochmal dorthin. - Die Lage ist Top und auch das Personal sehr nett. Preis-Leistung stimmt Leider wurden nicht wirklich Gruppenaktivitäten gemacht.

- sarah (7/5): - Bien situé, rooftop agréable, personnel très gentil Nous étions au premier étage et il n'avait pas de fenêtre dans notre chambre, donc manque de luminosité naturel. Air climatisé qui marchait plus ou moins. Voisin bruyant jusqu'au petites heures du matin, donc bouchon essentiel.
- Marco DC (10/5): -
- Maurine (7/5): -
- Bobby (10/5): Belle expérience - L’ambiance , proche du centre et de la plage 4 minutes à pied La chambre n’a pas de fenêtre qui donne sur l’extérieur pour un cour séjour ça va
- Dominic (10/5): -
- alfredo ignacio (8/5): Excelente lugar - Hay un muy buen clima, siempre alguien con quien hablar o compartir una birra o unos mates entre huespedes. Muy copados en especial Eugenio, Alan, Joaquin, Jes y Elena. El clima del lugar hace por mucho la diferencia Un incidente en Santino la ultima noche donde fuimos con los del Hostel y una de las empleadas me señalo con el seguridad diciendole que yo no estaba con ellos. Me arruino la noche
- Fabrizio (10/5): -
- Lea (10/5): - Le personnel, l'ambiance, les activités proposes, tout était top !
- Susana (4/5): - No me gustó en general La habitación muy pequeña y oscura, una pequeña ventana a un patio con muy poca luz

- Markus (8/5): - Guter Vibe wenn man auf Party aus ist. Badezimmer wurde nicht regelmäßig gereinigt.
- santiago jose (8/5): Muy buena - Las instalaciones están geniales, la recepción es excelente y siempre hay café N/C
- Andy (10/5): C'est un séjour mémorable. - Le personnel est incroyable, toujours à l'écoute des voyageurs. J'ai aimé le nombre d'activités impressionnantes proposée par l'auberge de jeunesse. De plus, l'auberge est située en plein cœur de la ville donc c'est facile de se déplacer. Je recommande !
- Lorena (7/5): - Ubicación muy buena. El dormitorio muy pequeño ,poco espacio y el baño también. Le falta luz a la habitación. Ofrecen café y te de cortesía lo cual es bueno. El personal muy amable. La cama, y el poco espacio en la habitación. Al baño le faltan percheros y estantes para poner las cosas personales.
- Maximilian (7/5): -
- Nahuel (8/5): Como en Casa - El personal de Che es lo mejor del lugar, te hacen sentir en tu casa desde el segundo 0. Tincho y Alan dos cracks, buena gente y excelentes laburadores, solo palabras de agradecimiento.

- Russell (9/5): Would stay again! - Location: close to beach, restaurants, street vendors, stores/shops. Staff was great! Clean. Amenities, coffee!, kitchen, refrigeration, noise from bar was not intrusive.
- Lauren (6/5): - I understand it’s a party hostel but the music was booming until almost 2am some nights. It was Impossible to sleep. Of course it depends which room you are assigned

- Alex K (7/5): Great spot for a couple days in PDC - The facility itself is pretty nice and simple. The rooftop is small but cozy and has a nice view. Not sure how frequent the cleaning was in the dorms/bathroom
- genius level 2000 (1/5): Legally blind person with tourettes syndrome was ejected for manifesting symptoms of his disability - I am a legally blind person and live with Tourette Syndrome—both conditions formally recognized as disabilities under Mexican law. I presented my official credencial de discapacidad, thereby placing the establishment on clear notice of my protected status.
Despite this, I was subjected to overt and unjustifiable discrimination. Rather than receiving the reasonable accommodation to which I am entitled, I was summarily removed from the dormitory accommodation I had lawfully reserved and paid for, and was informed—without any meaningful dialogue or exploration of alternatives—that my only option was to incur the substantial additional expense of a private room.
This course of action constitutes a flagrant violation of Articles 1, 4, 5, 9, and 26 of the Ley General para la Inclusión de las Personas con Discapacidad, as well as the broader principles enshrined in the Convención sobre los Derechos de las Personas con Discapacidad (ratified by Mexico). The decision was neither reasonable nor proportionate; it effectively punished me for manifesting symptoms of my disabilities while accommodating the unfounded expectations of other guests in a venue that explicitly markets itself as a lively, social “party hostel.”
I was not offered any genuine attempt at reconciliation or adjustment—only displacement and an additional financial burden. The experience was not merely inconvenient; it was deeply humiliating, left me in tears in front of everyone and a stark reminder that, for some service providers, the legal and moral imperative to include and respect persons with disabilities remains little more than an afterthought. I am writing to bring to your attention a serious failure on the part of your staff to comply with applicable disability-accommodation laws and basic standards of hospitality. I am a legally blind person and live with Tourette Syndrome, both of which constitute disabilities under the Ley General para la Inclusión de las Personas con Discapacidad and the Convención sobre los Derechos de las Personas. Despite this, I was summarily removed from my booked dormitory accommodation because other guests complained that my search for prescribed medication (necessary to manage my Tourette Syndrome) was disturbing their sleep in advance of an early departure. Rather than address the complaints of the other guests or explore reasonable accommodations that would allow me to remain in the accommodation I had lawfully booked and paid for, your staff elected to eject me from the dormitory. The solution unilaterally imposed by your staff was that I should upgrade, at my own additional expense, to a private room. No effort was made to require or even suggest that the complaining guests—who apparently required absolute silence and privacy—bear the cost of relocating to a private room themselves, despite the fact that a private-room rate at your property way exceeds hotel rates. It is noteworthy that your establishment markets itself as a lively “party hostel.” Guests who demand hotel-level quiet and privacy in a shared dormitory at such a venue have, frankly, selected the wrong accommodation. It is not reasonable—or legally defensible—to resolve conflicting guest expectations by displacing and penalizing the disabled traveler while indulging the unrealistic demands of others. The staff members who made and enforced this decision demonstrated a complete absence of training in disability accommodation, a lack of empathy, and a failure to exercise even minimal discretion or fairness. Their actions exposed your business to significant liability which I am pursuing now.
- Agathe (8/5): -
- Nissim Saar (10/5): - Central location, very nice staff
- Cristian (10/5): -
- Giser (5/5): Decepcionante - El Staff de chicos, Agus y Alan son muy serviciales.
La ubicacion La habitación diminuta y sin ventana ni ventilacion, con olor a cañería del baño. Incluso había un incienso prendido para enmascarar el olor. Y porsupuesto poca o nula limpieza en general.
En la habitación se escucha absolutamente todo, hubo fiesta hasta las 3am y si bien no fui, fue como haber participado. Lo mismo con el olor a comida, imposible no salir con olor a hamburguesa recién hecha.
- Marco Antonio (9/5): - Ubicación Me gusto todo
- Lili (10/5): Maravillas de la Naturaleza - La amabilidad y el ambiente tranquilo que se respira aqui Tengo problemas para caminar y los escalones de llegada se me dificultaría un poco
- TheodoreGuo (7/5): Just ok - Staffs are awesome. Rooms are clean. Kitchen is well equipped. Location is good. The air-conditioner was kinda not working well. We had a hot sleep . Also the karaoke event on rooftop was lasting after 12am, so we couldn't sleep well if we didn't have ear plugs with us.

- Marquez (10/5): -
- Pilar (9/5): Won’t recete staying there! - Everything Would’ve love to have aircon all day long
- YUAN (7/5): - 地理位置,一楼公区有空调。24小时咖啡供应。 房间白天没空调,夜间空调温度又太低,我需要穿薄羽绒睡袋睡才不冷。洗澡水不热。晚上还挺吵的,一直要到午夜才能安静下来。
- Scarabotto (10/5): -
- Jodie (10/5): Nice hotel and staff. I enjoys the day very much. - Atmosphere and the hotel staff is very nice and helpful. Nothing. Everything is Ok.
- Agathe (10/5): Je conseille à 1000% - Les soirées proposées, les rencontres, et surtout le personnel ! Que des gens incroyables
- Agathe (10/5): -
- Manon (6/5): - Bonne localisation et services. Armando à la réception m’a super bien accueillie et en français, il a même monté mon sac à dos. Chambres petites et ménage qui laisse à désirer. L’eau de la douche coulait très mal. Rooftop et piscine petits. On se sent à l’étroit dans le bâtiment. Il n’y a pas de vraies pièces de vie communes
- Natalia (10/5): -
- Baltazar (10/5): -
- Andres (7/5): - El precio muy bueno con la ubicación La barra abre muy tarde no ay opciónes de desayuno dentro del hotel
- Valeria (6/5): - The location it’s nice The beds are so ugly and uncomfortable
- Jorge Yitzhak (10/5): -
- IVAN ALEXANDER (8/5): - Me encanto la atención, especialmente de Camila, hizo mi actividad un recuerdo INOLVIDABLE Tal vez el hecho de que se fue la luz, la ubicación no fue del total de mi agrado, pero fuera de eso fue un buen hostel
- Ryan (1/5): דיסהמלצה - המיקום בלבד. לחדרים היה ריח של עובש, החדרים מלוכלכים בטירוף, יש להם חדרים בבניין הרגיל שאי אפשר לישון שם בגלל המוזיקה החזקה, ובחדרים בבניין ליד יש רעשים חזקים מהרחוב. ברחנו אחרי הלילה הראשון למרות שהייתה לנו הזמנה לכמה ימים.
- Gimenez (10/5): 100 % recomendable volveria siempre ! No duden - Unos genios todos la verdad me sentí como en mi casa gracias a los chicos del staff Eugenio, Alan y Choco un crack ! Luego Martin, Jimena y German en el bar le dan el toque de fiesta Y Camila en experiencia la mejor. Todos los dias algo nuevo para compartir quede encantado del ambiente que generan son un equipaso 🙌🏾🫶🏼 Jime es una gran fotógrafa (talento oculto ) sin dudas volveré saludos 🫂 Nada
- Posobon (10/5): - Excelente todo
- Jorge (10/5): - El espacio es genial la habitación grande y comoda
- Rodolfo Ribeiro (9/5): Excelente. - Viajei sozinho e fiquei em um quarto privativo, a acomodação em geral é muito boa e ao mesmo tempo o rooftop permite a interação com outros hóspedes.
Enquanto estive lá teve uma pool party em outra unidade da mesma rede, em Tulum, e foi bem legal, pois houve interação também com os hóspedes de lá.
A equipe da recepção é muito legal e muito prestativa também, deram várias dicas uteis durante a estadia.
A localização é muito boa, é possível ir e voltar caminhando tanto das praias quanto dos locais noturnos. Nada a reclamar.
- Jasmin (9/5): - En mi habitación había una terraza lo que era muy cómodo, las literas son cómodas y la ubicación es buena y el personal de recepción es muy atento y amable Apagan el aire acondicionado en el día y resulta ser más fresco afuera, también me pasó que yo estaba sentada en el bar y nadie me ofrecía bebida, creí que era normal porque no estaba en el juego en el que participaban solo hombres y las voluntarias pero luego llegó mi amigo que se sentó conmigo y le dieron bebida en la boca y aun así a mi nada.. Me hizo pensar que daban más atención a los hombres
- Florian (10/5): -
- Pedro Agustin (10/5): - Todo y quiero destacar a los chicos que trabajan en la barra de la terraza unos fenómenos. Me gustó todo.
- Gal (10/5): -
