Really great beautiful, comfortable hostel. Tyler is a solid owner and cares about your experience and comfort. I felt completely safe and content here. Will be back again!
Awesome chilled out space close to the beach. Not a party hostel but still has a really nice social vibe. Comfy beds in dorm, shower has adequate pressure, what else do you need?
Nicely located place in the middle of La Punta. Small hostel with a big chill/common area so it’s easy to meet the other guests. Did not see/met any of the owners/workers there, but place was neat. Would recommend if you’re looking for a layed-back place in La Punta.
Super relaxing, it’s been such a great place to have as a home base while in Puerto Escondido, great central location, close to cafes, restaurants and beaches.
Awesome place to stay ! I originally booked for 3 days, but it is so nice that I have actually stayed for 2 weeks. Nice chats with the owners, the staff and other guests (which also tend to stay longer than originally planned). The place is lovely, calm and great to meet other people. Last, the location is great: In the center of La Punta (beautiful and lively neighbourhood with a very interesting mix between Mexican an backpackers cultures). It is also a really good base to organise day trips; if a bit longer, you can leave your stuff at the hostel and leave with a small backpack, which is very convenient. I definitely recommend this place !
Absolutely loved our stay here!! Really cheap hostel literally couldn’t be closer to La Punta beach and all of the bars and restaurants. Owner is really cool and laid back, can rent boards easy all through the whatsapp . There was actually no other guests over the weekend we were there but that actually made it better for us! . Really nice spot highly recommend if you want somewhere close to the action to leave the bags!
Fantastic hostel. Perfect location and amenities m great chilled out vibe. Three owners are lovely and very accommodating.
Hostel top!!! Best hostel in Mexico after almost two months travelling!! Friendly staff, clean as if I was at home!!!
