Great hostel
Have not stayed in a hostel since college, but it was the last minute the night before I go to the airport place to stay…. and it surpassed my opinion of what I thought it would be. Everybody was quiet in the actual room and respectful, but yet there is social Experiences if wanted, food nearby and everybody was kind and drinks were Great for nice price

Enjoyed my stay
The best thing about this Hotel is the location. It is right across the street from a really nice beach.
The bunk bed was clean and properly assigned. I think they can reiterate the ground rules for the dorms when checking in.
Lots of opportunities to socialize.
I enjoyed my stay.

Great location, nice people
In the beginning, I was scared when I realized I would stay in a room with other unknown people and men; I am a woman. After the first day, I felt comfortable already. The people in the room were friendly, quiet, and respectful. The front desk employees were very nice and helpful. And there is a sweet Dave. The location is great for the budget.

I switched from another hostel to Mayan Monkey, and it was the best decision I could have made. The place is clean and comfortable, and the staff is incredibly kind and friendly. The front desk team is very helpful, and Miguel from the bar is the best! Thank you all for everything!
