“Good location, nice rooms, serves the purpose”
The hostel is in a very good location. The rooms are nice and the beds comfortable (I stayed one night in a dorm and four nights in the private room). Staff is very friendly. It has a bar where events are going on every evening. In the bar area you find hammocks to chill and a pool table.

Cleanliness and it is all about the bar and not the hostel (guests). Quite noisy because of the bar too.

Very friendly and welcoming staff and atmosphere. Facilities are really good even if to be a hostel it's missing a shared kitchen, but this is definitely compensated by the all day offer of coffee, tea, water and fruit. Toilets and showers are well organised.

Cold. I got sick whilst I was here. There are blankets, but these don't suffice in the evening or early morning. Poor internet connection even for basic stuff like Googling. I overheard the Mexican team member criticise one of the "older" guests . He would also swear a lot and was sometimes aggressive with guests. Smoking weed is permitted. One guest offered me a bag she didn't want before leaving the hostel and San Cris. When you give feedback, they make it personal instead of addressing the complaints.

The hostel is located in the main (tourist) street, a bit of a walk from the main square though, however I felt safe in the area. I liked the atmosphere in the hostel with staff being very friendly. I would recommend staying in this hostel.

It was probably the best hostel i've been to in Mexico. The staff is super friendly and helping you out whereever they can. There is free tee, coffee and water troughout the day, also they have food for fair prices. Clean rooms, and clean bathrooms, hammocks, a bar, darts, pool table. What more can you wish for for such a price?

The staff is super nice and friendly. The place has a very good vibe. The garden is amazing, feels great to see some green areas. The dorms are quite big with privacy on each bed. The bathrooms are super clean and very good. Enough toilets and showers.
