Location is great! This place is less than 1 min away from Paseo Montejo, so this means you'll have access to lots of restaurants and live performances on weekends. The owner is super helpful and nice. Rooms are clean, and there's a place for storing your bike. There are private and hostel rooms, and the price point is unbeatable. Would stay here again, for sure.

Amazing hostel in so many ways. It's location was perfect, right in the middle of city with lots of cute coffee shops near by and walking distance to the main squares and shops. The hostel itself had great facilities with a great kitchen and complementary coffee every morning. The owner is so lovely and she makes you feel super welcome from the start. She walks you through where to visit in merida and gives you loads of local recommendations. She was so friendly and approachable and she was highlight of our stay. We stayed for día de los muertos and it was in the perfect spot for visiting all of the different events going on over the weekend. Id highly recommend this hostel and we would definitely stay again. Muchas gracias:)

The hotel was amazing, fist of all it was spotless clean, from the bedrooms to the bathrooms. Which after spending the hole day before going all over merida trying to find a decent of clean hotel I really appreciated. You can find a bed in a shared room that includes a loker, for aground 200 to 300 pesos depending on the season, which in my opinion is really cheep. The kitchen in fine and the community is great. The location is absolutely amazing! Right at the end of the main street! I would still recommend renting a bike just because you get to know so much more, you can find then in between 200 and 300 pesos a day near the hotel. I'm convinced this is the best place to stay in merida! Specially if you are looking for the adventure experience!!! Nice, clean and lively!

I stayed in that hostel for two weeks because I was doing a Spanish course in Mérida. It was the perfect place to stay for that time, being a very calm, friendly and clean place. I felt very comfortable and safe there. The location at the Remate del Paseo Montejo is just perfect, it’s super central and almost any place of interest is within walking distance. The owner, Nad, is very friendly and attentive and helps you with any question (e.g. about the city, things do do, etc.) or problem you might have. And all that for a very reasonable price. Two thumbs up for that great hostel! I’ll definitely return one day! :)

+ curtains on the bed + ac in the room from 7pm to 7am + big locker + bright rooms with window + nice stuff + good location + good wifi + got a towel + cofe in the morning - no water refill - kitchen not really usable, small fridge - hangout area isn't the best. A bit small, a bit uncomfortable

The lady that manages the hostel speaks English, she told me a lot about the city, places worth visiting, where to eat, with tips about prices. Also I got a plan of colectivios/buses to nearby places. Bathrooms are cleaned regularly, dorms are quiet, regularly ventilated.
