Playa del Carmen Hostellit

Miinukset: The room was dirty all the time that I and my friends were there. We asked the staff to fix the AC since wasn’t working and they said that was working perfectly and wasn’t. The room was very hot and was horrible to sleep in Mexico feeling 30-degree in your own room. They put me on top of a bunker bed and I moved my mattress to the floor because was impossible to stay in my bed without ac or even fan. The shower was clogged and was pretty nasty to take a shower like that, at least they fixed in our second day. I definitely not recommend this hostel for anyone.

Plussat: Got upgraded to the sister hotel as Che was fully booked. Staff were friendly and the location was great!

Plussat: Friendly staff such as Debbie the awesome Scottish lass. :-) Really good food (BBQ night and tasty breakfast). Overall good vibes.

Plussat: The staff is nice, the location and the rooftop are amazing.

Miinukset: The rooms are SUPER hot, impossible to have a good night of sleep. Also, they don’t come to clean the room and bathroom everyday.

Plussat: Nice environment, staff really nice, breakfast had many options, they offer dinner every night for a good price and if you have any dietary restrictions you can tell them early and they will do something for you

Miinukset: The pool is small and the chilling places were not enough. But have in consideration that is a small hostel.

Plussat: Beautiful roof top bar and pool. Great atmosphere!

Miinukset: Bedrooms were very hot!

Plussat: Something going on every night which is sweet! Special mention for Naty who works there as she was awesome!!!

Plussat: Breakfast is good, plus they have cheap dinners every night and other activities like parties with good ambiance

Miinukset: The female dorm was very hot and humid, it was uncorfortable and hard to sleep. It smelt like mold as there was no ventilation.

Miinukset: IT'S A TOTAL SCAM! they say the dorm rooms have AC but than you get there and understand the room Does have AC but it's open only at the night and if you want all time AC you need to pay more for another room.

Plussat: This place is awesome! Very clean and secure, the beds are big and comfortable. Stuff always so nice and helpful. There is ac and a fan in the room. Every day there is a fun night at the bar on the rooftop which has a great atmosphere and vibe and just really fun and happy hostel! I will totally recommend it, we planned to stay for 3 nights and realized that if we are still in playa there is no reason to leave here!

Plussat: The free breakfast was nice. Also has a dive company on site if you want to get certified/ go on a fun dive.

Miinukset: Very much a party hostel. The rules of the property say something like loud music off at 11 but there was music every night blasting into our room until 2:30am. The staff were mostly unfriendly, not enough space in the kitchen for own food and some people had things stolen from them during our stay. No luggage lockers only small lockers for valuables.

Plussat: Nada!

Miinukset: Everything

Plussat: Everything was very clean and organized. People where extra nice and staff had an amazing service. Bathrooms were great. I wish I stayed more!

Plussat: Nice staff, very friendly Comfy rooms Clean sanitaries Everything looked exactly like in the photos

Plussat: Good for solo travelers. It’s clean, modern and nice vibes

Miinukset: Pillows

Plussat: The pool

Miinukset: I was made to change beds twice. I got home one night and there was someone else in my bed, so they told me to sleep in a bed in a different room. I had to move my stuff in the middle of the night. Then the next day whilst by the pool a member of staff came over and told me to move back to the other room. I was pretty pissed off, the guy offered me a free drink token as a sorry - he never gave it to me. I moved rooms. I tried to sleep in this room for two nights but I couldn’t because the smell was SO BAD. I’ve never smelled anything like it. It was partly the people in the room, partly the fact that the mattress and pillow were just soaked in a stale scent of sweat, alcoholism and smegma. It was so bad that, along with the sound of the walrus above me snoring and the blaring music until all hours, I simply COULD NOT sleep in this hostel. The smell still haunts me.

Plussat: Location. Good atmosphere for solo travelers or travelers looking for party.

Miinukset: The room has no curtains what makes impossible to sleep when the sun goes up. It is always noisy. They didn't clean the room the second day of our stay. Parking outside with just three spots. It says it has parking available, but actually it hasn't because it is just outside the place. On the last day a lot of things were missing in the breakfast and it was already poor in the beginning.

Plussat: I was there during the unfortunate shooting that happened a couple of days ago. They locked the gate and I felt very safe there. As a single girl traveling alone this was very important to me. Everyone was friendly and easy to get along with.

Plussat: Good vibes, super friendly staff, nice pool, very clean and one super awesome small dog lola.

Miinukset: Breakfast is basic but sufficient

Plussat: Beautiful style, looks more like a hotel than a hostel but has the friendly sociable atmosphere of a hostel. Great location 5 mins from the main drag but cheap eats right outside the door. Beautiful pool, diving centre on site which was great and lovely staff!! Couldn’t fault it.

Miinukset: Everything was perfect

Plussat: Very loud at night time hard to sleep but it’s in a great location and the staff were very lovely.
