The best view in Zipolite

The view from the hostel is amazing, and while it is peaceful in the hostel, there are still many opportunities for restaurants literally next door. Also the host, Valentin, is ridiculously helpful! It was a great stay, and we would definitely recommend it to others!

Excelente servicio pero no buenas condiciones

El hostal tiene la mejor atención, muy amables, sin embargo, es muy incómodo: hace mucho calor, ventiladores insuficientes, mucho mosquito, muy sucio (no barren debajo de las camas), las condiciones no son las mejores. Para un presupuesto bajo está muy bien aunque se va a sufrir un poco.

Uno shock

Attirato dal prezzo e dalla location ho prenotato. Ho girato molto in vita mia e ho visto di tutto, dalle stelle alle stalle. Ma un posto così inospitale, sinistro, sporco non mi era mai capitato. Il titolare che mi ha ricevuto indossava una maglietta lurida e strappata, gli avventori del ristorante....lasciamo perdere.... la camera una stamberga. Le foto pubblicate assolutamente rimaneggiate se non false. Credo che sia corretto proporre soluzioni per tutte le tasche ma a tutto c'è un limite. Ovviamente la mia richiesta di non addebitare la camera non è stata rispettata, spero quindi che voi di Hotels facciate la vostra parte rimborsandomela

Perfect sun and sand, inexpensive restaurants. Can't go in the sea above knee level because of downtow. Bathing suit optional on the beach. The last hippie hangout in Mexico.
