Liked: Free breakfast, WiFi

Disliked: The room we stayed im was really disgusting. The roof was about to fell off and there was mold everywhere. It wasn't worth to book a single room b/c the dorms were way nicer and it was shared bathroom anyway.

Liked: Very nice lady taking care of the hostel, she is the owner. Breakfast was ok Good beds

Disliked: Far away from the city centre, about 20-25 min walking although it's not a big deal as there is nothing to do or to see in this city. Shared bathroom could and should be cleaner and better kept taking into consideration that the hostel doesn´t have tons of customers.

Liked: The privacy and safety were a big plus. We only traveled through Chetumal for a night to get to Guatemala so weren't looking for much..

Disliked: If you wanted to stay a few days it is a little far away from anything, we struggled to find dinner the one night we stayed. Not a great deal to do in Chetemul anyway so one night on your way through is fine..

Liked: This was a nice place with a friendly dog and a helpful owner.

Disliked: It was not near anything but maybe there is not much to see in Chetumal. It was a short ride from the bus station and close enough to stores to be convenient

Liked: The lady that owns the place is very friendly. The rooms are very clean.

Disliked: No airconditioning, only fans which were insufficient to have a good night´s rest. On the webpage of Hostelbrookers they offer to pick you up at the bus station, but when we called they were unable to come after us. When we asked the next day if they could bring us to the bus station, the lady said she couldn´t leave the hostel alone. I don´t have a problem with that, but please remove the "we will pick you up at the bus station" offer from the website since they refused twice in 2 days.
