Convenient location as it’s right by a bus stop and there is a taco restaurant and OXXO steps away. Playa Chac Mool public access is literally across the street. The room itself was nice and comfortable. The breakfast was just ok. There are daily activities that you can join (we didn’t join any but it would be a nice option for more social people). Deducting a star because while we were there, 2 different people lost belongings (money and phone) in the property. Also after check out if you want to keep your stuff there, they charge $5 for the secure locker. Otherwise you can just leave it inside an unlocked cabinet right by the entrance and hope for the best.

Enjoyed my stay

The best thing about this Hotel is the location. It is right across the street from a really nice beach. The bunk bed was clean and properly assigned. I think they can reiterate the ground rules for the dorms when checking in. Lots of opportunities to socialize. I enjoyed my stay.
