I always enjoy viajero hostels wherever I go. But here in Puerto Escondido, the things felt a little off, mainly because the staff was always busy talking between themselves instead of paying a little bit of attention to the requirements of the guests. Everytime I talked to anyone I felt I was annoying them. I would’ve love to feel a little bit welcome. The location is ok and it has a nice rooftop on top.

The ultimate party hostel, it can be a random Tuesday & you’ll end up at a beach club singing karaoke before you know it- There’s organized events & the staff is great! Convenience is noteworthy here- The beach is a 7 min walk, the property has an ATM, & there’s a store right around the corner!
