This hostel is planned and professionally built to be a proper hostel. It is very central. Just the opposite to the ADO bus terminal, from where anyone can access into the hostel in 5 minutes, and to get the airport shuttle bus or to get the bus for Chichen Itza. Rooms are air conditioned. Best thing is all rooms have their own separate toilet and bathroom. The have very good community area , well equipped kitchen and a roof top swimming pool. Within 30 metres there is a MacDonalds and a Chinese restaurant runs till late. I will definitely recommend it for others. But keep in your mind that to check in you must have 300 Mex $ extra to deposit as security, to be returned while checking out. You may drop your passport instead at front desk if you don’t have 300$ Mex.

I loved this hostel! It's directly across from the ADO bus station and the collectivo stop, so very convenient. The grocery store is right next door and shopping is just down the street. There were food trucks out front in the evenings and a restaurant just outside the front door. I as a solo female traveler felt very safe there and also while walking around the local area. The rooftop pool, workout area, kitchen and eating area were amazing! I could spend all day there. The room I stayed in (8 bed dorm) was clean and had it's own bathroom with shower. The only thing I wish the shower had were some hooks (for your towel and clothes) and a shelf to put your cleaning items on. All in all my stay was wonderful and I'll definitely recommend and return :)

Avoid this property. After booking, they requested full credit card details outside of a secure payment system days before arrival. I refused due to fraud risk and asked to pay securely on arrival, which they declined. I was then denied a refund until the issue was escalated to Expedia. Also, look at other reviews mentioning issues with large deposits being taken. This is unacceptable payment practice and guests should be cautious. Don’t give them your credit card information!!!

Fue una estancia muy agradable. Desde recepción, hay una chica cubana (no recuerdo su nombre), es un encanto, te hace sentir en casa desde que llegas. Las habitaciones amplias,. cómodas, en la terraza hay cocina con utensilios. Hay una alberca muy rica también. Y la ubicación es genial, frente al ADO, frente a la ruta que lleva a la playa, junto a restaurantes y bares, y a un lado un Soriana.

Reservamos uma suite. Ao chegarmos, tivemos que fazer um deposito de 800 pesos, ou entao queriam que deixassemos os passaportes em garantia. A diaria ja estava paga. O segurança ligou para a responsavel, que me questionou o porquê de eu nao querer deixar meu passaporte. A cama tinha fios de cabelo nos lençois e em uma fronha. Como chegamos do aeroporto tarde e ficariamos apenas uma noite, pois seguiriamos viagem, achei que nem valia a pena reclamar. Dormimos vestidos. Apenas não fiquem nesse hostel.
