Very relaxed and nice vibe at the hostel. Ben, the manager, will help you with anything you need or wonder about, plus he is a really friendly and nice guy to chat with. Nice little pool and common area where I had a lot of interesting conversations with the other guests. The location is obviously not on the beach but its really easy to get there by bus or taxi if you want to skip the walk, and instead you get to experience a bit of the less touristic yet very friendly (and a lot cheaper) part of the town.

The matress was a bit soft but thats just a matter of preference. A little light by each bed would have been nice.

The welcome from Ben was outstanding. Best reception I’ve had in any hostel in the last 12 months of travelling around the world. He went above and beyond and included a local map, explaining where to find the supermarket, bus pickups, the beach, and even the best dessert places. There’s an activities board, with various activities including beach cleanup days, salsa nights and visiting a dog shelter. Ben has a great sense of humour and seems to really care that his guests enjoy their stay.

It seemed during my stay the majority of guests were smokers, and they were catered to quite well. The common areas were always full of cigarette smoke, making it impossible for non-smokers to relax in these areas. There was also no comfortable dining area. There was a bar stool type area, but the stools were very awkward and uncomfortable, especially for anyone not tall. The girls dorm was always running out of toilet paper. There was never a spare roll provided, and it seemed like we were constantly having to ask for toilet paper. No hand soap was provided, making it virtually impossible to maintain proper hygiene after using the toilet.

First time for us in Mexico , we really appreciated the warm welcome and all the helpful advice given to us by our hosts . Benjamin and Morgane’s philosophy is to offer local tips and support to travelers. They also reach out to the local community for their unusual trips such as beach cleaning and dog shelter visiting . We tried salsa dancing and a visit to a lesser known Cenote . Totally recommended. The hostel itself is very comfortable- we had a double room with shared kitchen and beautiful garden with a little pool . The location was great walking distance to a lively little park where it was easy to pick up street food , a few restaurants and a local bus colectivo to the beach . Here there are lots of boat trips to go fishing or snorkelling on the coral reef . Puerto Morelos is an ideal first or last stopping point for Cancun airport about 25 minutes away .

It was all really great .

+Benjamin and his wife took over the hostel a few months ago and they are absolutely the best. They have all the best Information and recommendations. They are 10/10 friendly, cordial, you can reach them anytime. They treat every guest individually. +The hostel is perfect for backpackers and travelers searching for a more relaxed and authentic Mexican experience - there are loads of local shops and restaurants around. +Kitchen is okay, there are shops and a few supermarkets around, so it is easy to cook by yourselves. +collectivos to Cancun and Playa del Carmen are just a few blocks away (30MXN/Person, easy to use). Also to Puerto Morelos beach (10MXN/Person) +The cats are very sweet +They offer good value tours to cenotes, coffee tasting, local tourism sites, Recommended!

-it is a hostel. A little basic - but that’s what a hostel is and should be. If you are searching for party or luxury it is not the right place. For us it was perfect.

This is a beautiful place to stay. The common area is comfortable with plenty of space to gather with others or get some time alone. Ben and his wife are so helpful with everything from helping you to get around and know the area to taking you to salsa dancing. They promote such a friendly atmosphere it feels like coming home each night. The rooms are clean and very basic. I really enjoyed my new mattress and slept so well. Great airflow through the room. Don’t hesitate.

Good value private room was really appreciated whilst diving. Walkable from the colectivo stop by the big supermarket (though could be uncomfortable on a hot day). It's in the district by the highway, *not* at the beach - but it's a 10 peso colectivo ride to get to the seaside part. There's a pool, but I didn't use it as was in the ocean much of my time. Owner was helpful with information digitally in advance.

Was a little weird that I basically never met any staff whilst there, and there were very few guests, so not really a social atmosphere. Was okay for me at that time, might not suit others.

Great place to stay in Puerto Morelos, in a safe neighborhood, close to everything (supermarkets, tiendas, many good restaurants and street food, plaza, bar, botanical garden, collectivos...) From there you can walk to the beach or take a ride on the collectivo for 10 pesos. The hostel is clean, has very well equipped kitchen, a nice commun area to hang out, and a pool. I highly recommend, and would stay there again anytime!!

Excellent location - within the local community, no other tourists! Felt very safe. Easy to walk to the beach area and the area to catch a colectivo Small local restaurants with local prices Apartment was clean and big, and air con worked well in the bedroom Walking distance to small shops and also a big supermarket I felt so relaxed, I will definitely be returning

Some small mix up on the day of arrival, but nothing major

Staff were amazing! Location was good, walking distance to the botanical garden and beach! Room was clean and beds super comfy with locker space. Kitchen was also great and areas to chill. Highly recommend

Comfortable mattresses, clean, staff goes out of their way to help you, pool, kitchen, waffles & fruit for breakfast! Location convenient to Collectivo’s, beach and town. Ben, hostel manager, speaks excellent French, Spanish & English. Chill vibe.
