Good location just 10 minutes from the Zocalo, basic but clean dorms & bathrooms and friendly & helpful staff - the hammocks and the pool make this a great place to stay in the heat of Merida.

Great hostel close to zocalo. The dorms were spacious. No locks on main door of room though, but there are lockers. I love the hammocks! Facilities were normal hostel stuff. Free breakfast was good with bread/jam/coffee and fruits.

Nomadas had excellent facilities (amazing pool) and a great salsa class. There were also tons of comfy hammocks everywhere. My only complaint is that it is NOT a place to go and party as you need to be quiet at 11:00 pm . If you want to rest it's a great place to stay but not if you want to party.

Owner Comment (Show)
Dear guest,   There are many convenience stores and supermarkets close by our hostel where you can get beers and wine at a very reasonable price (which is a great way to save money) and drink it at our premises. We are located nearby an elementary school, that's why we do not offer alcohol.   During the day the main activities take place around the pool area (open from 06 am to midnight); we also offer free salsa classes every evening from Monday to Friday. Thanks to our spacious gardens you could prepare a barbecue to enjoy with your friends while having some beers. However one of our main rules in the last 10 years has been ensuring a good night sleep of our customers. More than half of them are in bed around midnight since they depart very early in the morning for Chichen Itza, Uxmal, Tulum, Playa del Carmen or Cancún. For those who want to continue partying you only need to walk a couple of blocks to find some late night bars.   We appreciate your comments that make us improve our services in the hostel.   Best regards,   Nomadas Team

Very friendly and helpful staff, who also speak English. Good communal areas and relaxing atmosphere-pool area with seating and nice garden, kitchen, hammocks, and courtyard with plenty of seating. Not quite in the centre, but this meant rooms were quiet and only a short walk to reach the centre of town. Would definitely stay here again.

Our double bunk-bed, private bath bedroom, was way too hot for comfort. There were two ceiling fans, but on a super high ceiling we could barely feel them. There was also another fan in front of the screened window, but unfortunately this did not work. When we came back to the hostel at 10 o'clock at night and walked into our room, it was probably 20 degrees warmer than what it was outside. After laying, drenched in our sweat, we finally had to sleep with the door open to try to let air in.

we´re sorry , the room has three electric fans, the most important it´s just infron of a big window in the room, that one brings fresh air to the room, and keep it in a nice temperature if you notice that wasn´t working, you should report it to our staff and we have a change to give you a new one or fix the one in the room. unfortunately you reported when you check out.

Epic pool with hammocks above it - loved it sooo much! When we were there, we met some great people. One of the best breakfasts I had in Mexico. Stayed in the 12 bed dorm: there is quite some room so you don't feel cramped up. Would definitely go there again. It's close to the station, maybe a bit far away from bus stations but does not hurt!

The staff was not very nice. And the room quality is not very good compared to other hostels.

Great hostel - we loved the hammocks by the pool, and the fact that there was Wifi and a full kitchen. The salsa classes were also really awesome, and a great way to meet people. The location is about a 10 minute walk from the downtown.
