Such a wonderful hostel, possibly the nicest I've ever been. The common areas are just gorgeous and the pool is so nice. The dorm room is comfortable and private. Loved it.
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 :)
Very great spot with cantina bars nearby,across from the ADO bus stop that takes you to the airport. Not the place if you want to party but perfect for relaxing. Highly recommended
My new favorite spot to sleep in Cancun 👍👍 bed's room's washrooms are huge high ceiling large under bed locker's for storage bring a lock , all clean located across from the bus station where the bus from the airport stop's, no complain 😎 I'll be back !
Check was at 2 and I got my bed at 5. Garbage in kitchen was overflowing. Would not recommend.

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!!!
El personal es muy atento y las instalaciones se encuentran limpias, lo que no me gustó es que no hay hooks para colgar ropa o toallas en la regadera , estos se encontraban rotos, además de que las cortinas que cubren las camas son muy cortas así que no tienes privacidad o si alguien prende la luz, se filtra todo. Además de que por la noche al bajar un poco la temperatura y con el ac , llegó a hacer frío, así que sugiero o dar una frazada más gruesa o no bajar tanto el ac
