Very secure - great showers n bathroom on shared 4 bed dorm - friendly court yard area for chilling n socializing/bar area - 24 hour reception - helpful staff - close to anything n everything - 10 min walk to ADO bus terminal n beach - activities or trips out most days. Recommended

Only thing no side lighting so if others are sleeping n u need to sort things out can be tricky.

I love this place! Nice service and host. Clean and comfortable. Check patio on the third floor. I've stayed there 2 times and both times great experience.

We met so many great people. We ended up being there when there was kind of a lull in the daily activities so that was sad but still a lot of fun. The outlets inside the lockers were super convenient and secure. They have staff that speaks English and Spanish at least. Good mattress, you have to ask reception for a blanket if a flat sheet isn't enough for you. Cute rooftop area that's more chill. Music goes late and starts early at the bar but nothing terrible. You won't get tons of sleep but that's not what you stay at a hostel for.

Great hostel with a reasonably priced bar, beautiful common area, very chill atmosphere during the day to relax and awesome parties and activities at night to hang out with people from all over the world and a friendly, helpful staff. Best hostel in Playa and one of the best beach city hostels in the world! I'd recommend it to anyone coming to Playa looking for great times.

Clean rooms and great atmosphere overall, specially at night. I stayed with 5 other friends for about 2 days and we all agreed this had been our favorite hostel during the whole trip + it's at a great location really close to the strip mall. They offer lockers within the rooms and free breakfast (fruits, yogurt, cereal, coffee, and toast)

This place is everything you'd like if you're a solo traveller. A great group of employees, cheap drinks, many events and close to the beach. The Yak is awesome!

One of the best hostels I've stayed in throughout my travels to Europe, North America, and now Central America. Very chilled out garden vibe. Loved it and can't recommend it enough.

This Hostel was great! There is a amazing social atmosphere. The little bar/ lounge area is great and produces a vibrant feel..

Without a doubt one of my favorite hostels. The community/vibes are flowing for sure. Staff is incredibly friendly & helpful. Sadao went out of his way to create an amazing atmosphere, much love.

100% recommend. I may volunteer here.

Rating for double rooms: Be aware the private double rooms are mostly in the other building where a construction site is next to it. Rooms are very dark due to windows only to the walkway inside the building.

On the other side inside the hostel you have a relaxed area. The floor though there is loose stone. So it is hard to move a trolley.

Very cool hostel if you are visiting the region around Playa del Carmen and Tulum. Close to the beach and the whole touristic district with all the restaurants, bars, and clubs. We had private bedrooms for a cheap price.
