Nice and cheap. Bit far from Metro though. Quiet place, not a party hostel. Label all your food or they chuck it!

Fantastic area, right by the frida Karlo museum, slightly out of city centre so great if you want to chill: clean comfortable facilities

Besides, Coyoacan is a great district full of people, bars, restaurants, and coffee shops. Id definately go back.close

very good location although not in the center of the city, everything about this hostel was very nice, especially the big free lockers you get when you book a bed

A great place to stay! Friendly and helpful staff (24hrs a day) and only a short walk to the nearest metro. It was always nice to return back to the hostel, which was an oasis in the busy city!

This hostel is fantastic! Although the location is far from the city center but in the bottom line is perfect for staying. The hotel staffs, especially Cristina, are friendly and helpful.

The place is great, on a beautiful big house. Everyone is friendly. Don't expect a big breakfast, its only bread, jelly, coffee and milk. The beds are good, but they should put a ladder on the bunk beds because is really hard to go up and down. It was a good place to stay, i would go back.

It's great to have a hostel in coyoacan! It was a great facility, and really friendly staff. Nice to be located close to Coyoacan's historic center, and other perks like Jarocho, etc. I happened to be there with an unpleasant batch of kids, but that's not the hostel's fault!

Great place to stay, cleanliness probably it's strong point along with helpful, friendly staff and a great atmosphere amongst a large city. A bit of a commute if you were expecting to be right in the centre, but for those who prefer to be slightly away from the hustle and bustle of the main...

we came to stay for 3 days in an double private room. What we found was an uncleaned room, dirt and old bed linen from the person who was ther before. Nobody cleaned the room until the 3rd day!! We had to organize bed linen and toilet paper!!! Very bad organization! Never again!

excellent hostel in very safe neighbourhood, walking distance to metro and supermarkets, food markets etc. only downside is the way you have to heave yourself onto the top bunk due to a lack of ladder. but totally recommend it!

The rooms were expectionally clean.

Fortunately I didn't roll off the bed but I didn't sleep so well. Overall the hostel was pretty good, when I go back to Mexico, which I will very soon, I'll be staying here.close

However, I think next time I would stay somewhere closer to the center of the city (that long commute takes a toll on you). All the members of the staff were very nice but not the most helpful, organized crew around. They only give you one roll of toilet paper at a time and for some reason they don´t restock when they clean the bathrooms. We would have to ask multiple times to get some!close

I didn't sleep here, because they did not come to pick me up as we agreed. On top, there was no phone number, so I did not trust it anymore. I went to another hostel.

The rooms very clean, good safe area (in suberb of the city) , downside rooms stark and very cold at night. If you book a twin it will be a bunk bed not 2 singles. Not so much atmosphere here either but staff helpful enough!
