Backpackers
beware!
If
you’re
looking
for
atmosphere,
comfort,
reliable
internet
and/or
kind
staff,
move
on.
This
hostel
wins
the
cake
of
worst
in
Latin
America.
Unbelievably
rude
staff
who
had
earplugs
in,
listening
to
music
while
checking
us
in.
No,
“hey
welcome”,
no
“ah!
Where
are
you
guys
from?”,
just
“passports
required
for
check-in”.
The
beds
are
uneven,
and
horribly
uncomfortable.
The
creme
de
lá
creme
is
that
you’re
required
to
sign
a
contract
before
checking
in,
which
included
fantastic
lines
such
as:
horribly
steep
charges
for
small
items
including
leaving
a
window
open
or
hanging
clothing,
excess
of
600
MXN
pesos
for
people
who
express
“behaviour
deemed
unfitting
of
the
hostel”
(whatever
that
means),
200
MXN
peso
deposit
for
towel
and
key
(considering
other
hostels
charge
30-50
pesos,
this
is
a
bit
ridiculous)
PLUS
a
72
hour
cancellation
policy
which
allows
the
hostel
to
charge
the
full
amount
of
a
room
if
canceled
within
the
window!
Hostel
itself
looks
great
and
washrooms
were
clean,
but
prepare
for
poor
atmosphere
and
incredibly
horrible
wifi
which
isn’t
available
in
the
dorms.
What’s
worse
is
that
the
management
seems
to
make
the
same
comments
on
all
negative
reviews
both
here
and
in
hostelworld
saying
that
they’ll
“do
their
best
to
be
better”
or
that
they
“suggest
private
rooms
instead”.
Having
stayed
in
hundreds
of
hostels
through
the
years
I’ve
never
met
more
rude
staff,
or
poor/pretentious
atmosphere.
