Awesome hostel, lots of outdoor space and common areas. Rooms are very roomy and my bottom bunk was a double. Lots of toilets/showers, everything is always being cleaned. Met lots of people but it gets quiet around ten or eleven so you can still sleep. Seems to be the spot in Merida. Breakfast was good, fruit was nice but it ends at 930 which is kinda early.

Average to good overall, not really great or bad either though the "private rooms" may leave you weary in the morning from having to listen to people talk all night but the Trova singer was really very amazing and so was the salsa lesson but remember these are only offered during the weekdays. The price was definately cheap and then there is also a nice garden to explore in. They kindly kept our bags behind the counter for six hours after we checked out which i really appreciated

Very welcoming atmosphere. We loved the salsa class and the inclusive feel of the place, even the travelers seemed extra welcoming and friendly. Noise control was very well maintained. Staff enforced noise rules but there was no need really, as the travelers respected the noise rules. I liked the headlights above every bunk. Great character, swimming pool, common areas, colors all super quaint and beautiful. Hammocks everywhere. Overall felt like out of a fairy tale. 3 computers with internet access made f

My overall stay in Nomadas was really lovely. It's a great location, very friendly staff, and the rooms have a safe with a lock which was a really nice feature. The breakfast in the morning is light, but it has lots of yummy fresh fruit. The pool was refreshing during the hot days. The only complaint I have was someone smoked cigarettes in the women's bathrooms the two of the days I was there, which was rather unpleasant.

Free salsa courses, huge pool and a very friendly staff makes this a great hostel in Merida. Also: If you are in Merida, then Uxmal is a must see. Best is with the 6am morning bus, for the early birds.

I loved this Hostal! The staff were fantastic any query or problem no matter how big or small they would help from correcting your spanish to getting to the Cenotes. I was unwell while I was there and they couldn''t do enough to help they even got the Emergency Dr to come and see me at no cost! If you go to Merida you should stay here it makes everything better.

In terms of facilities, Nomadas is probably the best hostel I've ever stayed at. There's a large swimming pool and hammocks everywhere. Salsa lessons were great fun. I would only suggest staff organized more activities among guests, because at times it seemed that people weren't socializing as much as they could at such a nice place.

Friendly and helpful staff. Good breakfast. Nice and cozy pool with hammocks. Wish we could have stayed here when we got back to Merida the second time instead of Hostel Zocalo. Although our room was half smaller and less cozier than our friends' (both double private). Good value for your money. Also have Salsa lessons and live music.

Well run hostel with really helpful staff (trip info, taxi, bus tickets). Basic accommodation but clean, good breakfast, free computers (in other cities/hostels mainly Wi-fi). We had a double bed private room with a locker inside (appreciated), the locker key did not fit in but it was solved within 10 minutes. Main plaza and great restaurant Chaya Maya nearby. And the best of all - peaceful garden with hammocks and quite big swimming pool! Thanks, thumbs up!!!
