I stayed in the women’s dorm and it was excellent. The breakfast was delicious and the overall vibe of the hostel was wonderful.
There was an issue with bedbugs in the mixed dorm while I was there with several people complaining of bedbugs and apparently it has been an issue for a while. This wasn’t a problem in the women’s dorm but just be aware!!

A lovely, family-run hostel. It was a chill vibe but nice areas for relaxing with books, board games etc. The place was spotless and sheets were very soft. It was a 10-15 minute walk to the main square but a great hostel overall.

After staying in the 'big' hostel in town this was sweet respite, a great hostel that made me finally feel like I was travelling in Mexico and not staying in an 18-30 holiday camp. Very sweet and a great price . If you can get a room here, stay!
