Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Great location in the leafy area of Canada in Palenque. We usually stay in hostels but this was worth the extra money for the great facilities - well equipped room with fridge, TV, Aircon, showers etc and lovely pool and sunbathing area. The staff were very helpful. We were able to use the facilities outside of our check out / in times which was extremely helpful with early / late buses. Very comfortable stay, highly recommend.

    The staff were lovely, and the outdoor courtyard space is nice. Great base and minutes away from the ADO bus station, so a good 'upscale budget' option.

    Great people, great hostel! I was robbed my passport and cb (in ADO night bus) and they let me stay for free as much as necessary and helped me with calls etc. the hostels itself is great, near the bus station everything is at walkable distance including the ruins apparantly. the rooftop is nice with good wifi. There is kitchen, gameroom and a constant flow of nice backpackers coming in. The bed are very comfy and steady with load of space  in the room.  Area around seems calm, cctv inside with kindest host ever!
