Es un lugar muy bien ubicado, con acceso a la playa muy cerca, con las paradas del bus literalmente enfrente. Alondra, Luli, y Melisa en recepción son muy amables. Los del barra me atendieron bien, especialmente Miguel y Andy. La comida esta rico y especialmente para el precio. Deben que comprar el desayuno, si vale la pena. La habitación fue muy acomodo, limpio, y el aire estaba bien rico. Te recomiendo hospedarte en este hostal, tiene vibras muy buenas. 10/10.

In terms of security I would NOT recommend this place. I had a free room to myself and when I was not there my wallet was stolen from me.

Excelente experiencia en Mayan Monkey Cancún. Ubicación ideal en zona hotelera, cerca de la playa. Ambiente social perfecto para conocer gente, con actividades diarias. Instalaciones modernas, limpias y cómodas, con buenas áreas comunes. El staff es muy amable y siempre dispuesto a ayudar. La atención de Alondra y Balam en la recepción fue genial. Igual que la atención de Stephania y Mica en la barra. El desayuno es muy bueno. Gran relación calidad-precio. Lo recomiendo y volvería sin d...

Das Hostel befindet sich in einer sehr guten Lage und man kann fußläufig in 5 Minuten den Strand und die Clubs erreichen. Direkt gegenüber befinden sich zudem gute und preiswerte Restaurants. Das Zimmer selbst war sehr sauber und geräumig. Am besten hat uns der Allgemeinbereich mit dem Pool (inkl. Blick auf die Lagune) und der Bar gefallen. Insgesamt ein sehr gutes Hostel.

Muy buena experiencia en el hostel. posee un bar, con piscina y vista a la laguna. las habitaciones siempre limpias y los baños tambien. Posee tambien sector cocina. La atencion del personal fue excelente: para destacar a Balan, Melisa, Ludmila y sobre todo Alondra que nos ayudo con todo y nos dio información de la zona. Muy recomendable, volveremos. Lo único para mejorar pienso que seria mejor que el bar cierre mas tarde y no a las 23.30hs.

Bathrooms had no toilet paper or soap. Everything was very dirty and old. Showers smelled foul It was 10pm and they had maintenance repairing lights and being super loud. They knew I was there and made comments. Awkward… Beds were super comfortable and plugs by the bed were convenient. Atmosphere looked fun. Definitely a party hostel. Staff was friendly and informative. Balam was great 👍

Super ambiance, personnel gentils et aidants et Dave qui s’occupe des activités et tours a facilité le tout dans un tour de Cancun à Chichen Itza où j’ai pu débarquer à Valladolid avec mes bagages pour continuer mon voyage. En face de la lagune et de l’autre côté de la plage. Très bien situé pour visiter les autres plages . Les déjeuners sont vraiment bons! J’ y retournerais!

Fue una excelente estancia, todo el staff muy atento y amable, en especial Alondra que nos apoyo con mucha información sobre las instalaciones, nos dió consejos sobre el hostal y recomendaciones para salir y comer, le agradecemos mucho todo el apoyo y deseamos reconozcan lo grandiosa que es en su trabajo, sin duda regresaremos por la atención recibida! It was an excellent stay, all the staff were very attentive and friendly, especially Alondra!

It was an okay stay. The front desk staff was nice and the host I believe , Dave was also nice and helpful . Wasn’t as social as I hoped but most likely due to coming at the end of the season. Some folks were in their own group . Wouldn’t recommend booking the hostel events as it seems expensive for the overall experience . Still worth checking it out on your own if you can find a group and rent a car . Overall an OK experience for me personally

Gutes Hostel zum ankommen für eine Nacht. Aber ganz ehrlich Cancun ist und bleibt einfach kein besonders angenehmer Ort. Nicht viel zu tun. Schaut zu das ihr von dort schnell weitergeht.

I liked the hostel and my stay was going well. However, one guest was acting strangely and was heard saying he would hurt himself and others. This was reported to reception but nothing was done. The next day, money was stolen from several people, including me. I believe this situation should have been taken more seriously, as it could have ended much worse. I also received no reply to my messages after I checked out.

I’ve stayed in 60+ hostels across 40 countries, this is by far the worst. 0 atmosphere, hard to sleep. Meeting people is hard. No events, nada. Prices were slashed after booking. I got bed bugs. Worse, booked “tour” was a scam: I paid $90(70+20), others paid $50–60 (all included), and I was the only young person despite promises. Extremely boring. They profit by deceiving guests. Avoid at all costs. It’s a overcharge in my opinion. They just said sorry, but kept my $90 happily. You sho...

Excellent hostel, the location is perfect, close to the beaches and the town center. Special mention to Karla who did my late check-in. I really appreciated her, she was very helpful and had great energy.
