Hotel and Youth Hostal Mayflower Reviews

Very friendly staff. Brilliant location, close to bus station and main beach.

location was good - just up from the beach, restaurants, etc. Dorm was very stuffy, but if you opened the window, kept the door open and the fan on - it was fine. There were no hot showers, but in that heat I didn't need any. Liked the upstairs terrace with pool table.

No hot water, showers separated by a semi transparent glass wall, no room key so the rooms are always open.

I dont get the whole fuss about the Mayflower, its not that a good hostel. Didnt like the vibe of this hotel and also its rather difficult to socialize as for the common areas! The showers are very poor too.

The place was clean, close to the beach and main tourist street, bars and restaurants. Good value for your money

Clean. Secure. Trustworthy cleaning staff. Close to beach. Taxis know where it is. Fresh towels and sheets. A bit noisy (So you don't forget you're in Mexico) but depends on room #. 25 peso taxis almost anywhere in Puerto, so location isn't really an issue (walk to Zicatela to party or surf, cab back late at night if worried about safety). Many restaurants nearby. Proper building, not a palapa hut with sand fleas. Free Internet. Not always hot water. Not all staff speak English. No pool.

This hostel wasn't all we expected from the reviews. We were originally in a four bed dorm upstairs that was possibly the worst security I've ever seen in a hostel. It was steaming hot with a tin roof and pretty terrible. We upgraded to a private double room which was fantastic. Clean, comfortable room with private bath and tv. Well worth the extra cost. Good location and easy access to beach etc.

Amazing people are drawn to Puerto Escondido, so the people you stay with make it! Amazing proximty to the center and very safe! Staff are very helpful and kitchen is amazing. comfortable beds and great showers...lucky its so warm all year around the refreshing cold showers are no hassel.
