Has everything you need and more. Staff were excellent and super friendly and informative. Carlos has a wonderful wealth of know and is willing to share that, they have free yoga and beach visits and fun activities throughout the week Their dedicated workspace was lovely to work from Kitchen was clean and they have a huge fridge. It's easy to meet people in the shared kitchen food space. They have a cosy living room style space and a roof top bar with great food and drinks. They also let me hang out until I was ready to move on to the next place which I found really good of them. They provide free water. You get a lot for your money here.

All hostels in Cancún

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.

There are reasons for my 1 star rating but first, the positives I stayed in a 10-bedroom female dorm for 7 nights. It was clean enough, beds were comfortable and the bins were emptied regularly. The A/C in the room was awesome. A great relief from the heat. The bar a pool area was a nice hang out spot although a bit of an awkward space for group hang outs. The hostel was situated very close to beach access and the quick mart was across the road. Bus stops for both directions right outside. Great location.

I feel super comfortable, too pleasant weather. The hostel promotes several socialization activities and happy hour is great for meeting people if you are alone. The rooms are always clean and the breakfast is very complete and delicious. Excellent location, you can do everything by walking. By far the best hostel I've ever stayed in! I recommend
