27 January 2012 Vera would recommend this property

Liked: This hostel is one of the best places I have ever stayed at. The location is good, only 5 or so minutes from the central ADO bus terminal, from where you can get a bus to the beach or any other interesting places like Playa del Carmen, etc. The staff is really friendly and, what is really great, the price includes not only breakfasts, but also delicious dinners when all the travellers gather together and talk about their adventures while enjoying delicious meal. Drinking water is available during the whole day and you can get beer, coctails and lemonade for a good price. Moreover, the hostel organizes events, such as a beach party, so you can't possibly get bored.

Disliked: There is nothing to dislike. This hostel is a perfect place to stay.

23 January 2012 Josie would recommend this property

Liked: The breakfast and dinners were a bonus and the staff most helpful and entertaining. Visiting patrons were interesting and I learned a lot about their cultures.

Disliked: Dinners were later than stated, which isn't a problem, however I usually eat early. Mucho partying of patrons, ie interrupted sleep throughout the night. I booked a 14-bed, as it fit my budget only. Prefer quieter surroundings, very light sleeper!.

Liked: The staff that work at this hostel go out of their way to make your stay as good as it can be. The group dinner and nightly outings help introduce you to other travellers, and for the price, cannot be beat. It is close to the bus station, a great plaza and some good local eats so one never has to venture into the hotel zone :)

Disliked: Their only seemed to be one bathroom on the second floor used by all the people staying at the hostel (both female and male) which at times was awkward. The showers had no place to change or even put your clothes to keep them dry so you had to exit the shower to get your clothes, which as a female was a little uncomfortable. The nightly outings, although great in theory mean you also have to put up with people coming home drunk at ALL HOURS of the night/morning and we did not get any sleep. Next time I would only stay here in a private room. The hostel itself was good, but our average ratings are based on the bad experience we had from the guys who were in the mixed dorm room with us.

14 November 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: This is a really great place to stay and you feel at home immediately. The staff, especially Eduardo and Julio, are amazing. The breakfast and dinner make it really cheap staying here and are both great meals. It makes it very sociable also. The hostel is close to the bus stop, cheap food, local bars and easy to get to the beach and hotel and club district. One of the best hostels I have ever stayed in and I would never stay anywhere else in Cancun.

Disliked: Nothing

Liked: Great hostel. Very clean and amazing breakfast and dinners - what more could you ask! The staff are very hospitable. I felt like I was at home!

Disliked: The hostel is located in Cancun city which is far from the main strip of the beaches which is a tad annoying but the transport there is super easy! Important to note that all hostels are located in this area

11 November 2011 Sophia would recommend this property

Liked: The staff are super friendly, and really made the place feel like ahome while we were there, so much so that we stayed an extra 2 nights! The private room we stayed in initially was beautiful, with big windows. Very light and spacious, with our own private bathroom which was clean and colourful. We stayed a few extra nights in the mixed dorm, which again was clean, spacious, cool (good air con) and had enough soft furnashings to keep the place quiet at night. The food (breakfast AND dinner) was great, home made by the staff, and they also gave us a free shot of tequila with each evening meal. Everyone sits at the table and eats dinner together, which is great, it´s so sociable, and a fantastic place to meet new friends. It´s also in a great location, 5 mins walk from the bus station, not too far from the beaches and hotel district, and a supermarket just at the end of the street. There is also a big square nearby that has something happening every night, live entertainment etc. There is also a little park opposite the front door that holds salsa dancing lessons in the evening. The guys who work at the hostel are happy to help you book and or organise your tours, so ask them if you need any help with anything at all, they seem to know the best deals. They will also do yuor laundry for a reasonable 40 pesos per kilo. The club scene nearby is quite good if that´s what you are into, but it´s quiet enough for you to chill out if that´s what you want.

Disliked: Nothing at all, this place was so great, we´re also spending the last leg of our journey there.

Liked: Very close to the bus station, and the staff were very helpful, recommending top places to go. The free dinners are a great way to get people together, and I really enjoyed the organised trip to CocoBongo - an experience not to be missed!

Disliked: While close to the bus station, restaurants, etc, you will need to catch a bus to the beach, but they are cheap and regular.
