The property didn’t exist. It was a construction zone of rubble. Worst experience that could’ve ever happened.

Not a real hostel, and it shouldn’t be on Hostelworld. It smelled terrible, was in a sketchy part of town, the owner is aloof and slightly abrasive. There was junk lying around everywhere. We didn’t trust anyone and there was no security on sight besides the owner. Our beds were not ready even though we had booked the day before. They wanted way too much for what is was, and the atmosphere was that of a trap house. The only thing going for it was surfing lessons, but we didn’t trust anythi...

El hostal claramente ha tenido mejores días; la cocina no está limpia y el baño puede mejorarse, la administración debe poner atención en esos aspectos. También sería buena idea que le solicitaran a los huéspedes mantener el aire acondicionado similar al del ambiente de fuera (cuando llegue al cuarto estaba en 22 y me congelé). El ambiente es surfista pero no es higiénico; las camas son cómodas pero no vale lo que cuestan, se que es un precio bajo pero tampoco se trata de abusar con e...

The hostel has clearly had better days; the kitchen is not clean and the bathroom can be improved, the administration should pay attention to those aspects. it would also be a good idea to ask guests to maintain the air conditioning similar to the outside environment (when I arrived at the room it was 22 and I froze). the environment is surfing but not hygienic; the beds are comfortable but not worth the cost, although it is a low price but it is not about abusing the order either.

On est arrivés dans la soirée, personne n’était là pour nous accueillir. Ce sont des clients de l’auberge qui nous ont montré les lieux. On ne s’est pas senties hyper en sécurité. Ça fait le job mais personnellement je ne recommande pas.

El dólar depreciado y el peso MX sobrevalorado Hace que la relación precio/calidad no corresponda a una realidad objetiva.. Son embargo la amabilidad de Joe, compensa todo.

very barebones hostel- i probably wouldn't want to stay here more than 1 night. there wasn't really anyone staying there when i was there- just a few others so can't speak to the vibes. wifi is strong, location is close- just 10 min walk to the central area. there were lockers where you could lock your stuff in the rooms.

The place was clean, with decent wifi, and in good location. On the other hand, the hosts were being unapologetically unwelcoming, patronizing, blaming, and self-focused when I arrived after an exhaustive trip. It was challenging to protect my boundaries and establish peace. I wasn't feeling safe with them. Won't stay again.

It’s a surfers vibe, an intermit space with a handful of beds. Very laid back, chilled and everything you need but nothing fancy. Joe and Mama are beautiful people. Surfing with Joe is must, if you’re not interested in surfing or a chill vibe this may not be the place for you. If you want a taste of Mexicos surf life style, pop in. Look for the painted waves on top of the building to identify the hostel. Security low due to one bike lock for front door and draws for lockers. However, safe ar...

Super relaxed, easygoing vibe all around. The outdoor space is amazing, really comfortable. Loved the hammock! Joe, the owner, is incredibly friendly and laid-back. You’ll definitely end up spending time chatting with him, which adds a lot to the experience. If you’re into surfing, he rents out boards and offers lessons for beginners. Cherry on top: Jeoe has two cute cats that hang around in the common areas. I loved every part of my stay here! Gracias por todo Joe.

We had an amazing time in this hostel with my friend. It feels like home. The beds are very confortable and clean. The shower is also very nice. But most importantly the vibe in the hostel is very chill. Also you can learn how to surf or just keep on learning by taking classes with Jo ( one of the owner) which is a very good instructor. It was one of the best moment of our trip. I highly recommend this hostel

La pasé increíble en The Riptide. Al ser un hostel pequeño, se siente todo mucho más cercano. Joe, el dueño, está siempre por ahí y eso hace que el ambiente sea muy auténtico. Conecté con la gente de una forma que no me ha pasado en otros hostales. 100% recomendado.
