Liked: Felt pretty secure and easy to meet people.

Disliked: The rooms are very small, even when only 2 people were in a 4 bed dorm and could have done with a slightly bigger kitchen.

Liked: The ladies at the front desk were sassy and awesome. They make a great Michelada. The 6 person dorm we stayed in was kinda neat the way it crammed all the beds in and had lights for each individual bed/nook. Bathrooms were super clean and had good water pressure. Proximity to beach and nightlife is awesome...if you are into crowded beaches and bars with large covers. It's a hostel in Acapulco. Not like you have a lot of other options.

Disliked: The fact that I requested 3 beds in a 4 person dorm and got 2 beds in a 6 person dorm and then ended up paying almost the same for the double downgrade. They said they would put us in the 6 bed and not let anyone else in there and then sold it out both nights. They disregarded by hostelbookers deposit when re-calculating my cost. They then forgot all their fairly extensive English when we tried to explain the mistake.

Liked: It's right on the beach! A couple of decent bars and clubs nearby as well.

Disliked: Beware - rooms are tiny. They say they never put more than 2 people in the 4-person rooms, but I was there during low season so that may not always be true. They say they offer free internet but unless you have the ability to connect to wifi then all you get is a half hour for the entire stay - anything else you have to pay for.

Liked: Reasonable location, walking distance to the beach. Buses easily accessible from out the front of the hostel. Helpful staff.

Disliked: On the main road, make sure you bring earplugs. The dorms were actually shoeboxes sleeping 4 people.

Liked: This place was an ok place just to crash for one or two nights nothing more. There wasnt really anyone else staying there and it was extremely loud, so take earplugs.

Disliked: It was loud and the 4 bed dorm rooms were tiny. Lucky it was only my partner and i in the room as 4 people would not have fitted with bags etc.

Liked: Nice place to stay, close to beaches and good view from the patio. Breakfast was a little sparse but ok. Rooms were small and airconditioned and night, so had to actually use my sleeping bag even though outside night temp was over 20 deg celsius. Overall good place.
