Real guests • Real stays • Real opinions
We really enjoyed our stay in this hostel and we would recommend it to everyone. The property was very pleasant to stay as it gave a bit of traditional Mexican vibe. Besides that we felt very safe and peaceful. Everything was super clean and the staff was always available to help with anything. Additionally, the property is walking distance from the best attractions in the city (5-7 min). Moreover, you can do there a laundry and the ladies are able to clean and fold the clothes for you for little money. P.s if you need tours in Chiapas, you would recommend you to book it with the reception. It is quite good arranged
