I stayed at Mayan Monkey for 14 nights in an 8-bed dorm, and overall I had an excellent experience. The room had plenty of space, with two water closets, two showers, and two sinks, so waiting to clean up was rarely an issue. Lockers were large and secure — big enough to store everything without feeling cramped. Hot water was always available, which is something I really appreciated. I didn’t use the bar, but it added to the lively atmosphere. The kitchen was functional but small, and the shared fridge was pretty chaotic. There were baskets for personal food storage, but almost all of them were full. It worked, just wasn’t the most organized. Because of that, I mostly bought my meals and drinks at Super Selecto Chedraui — only about a 10-minute walk away and super convenient. The crowd was one of the best parts — energetic, friendly, mostly younger travelers who liked to interact and socialize. The computer room overlooking the kitchen/bar area was a great space to relax or get things done while still feeling connected to the vibe below. The location couldn’t be better. Beach access is directly across the street and even has a public restroom. The area felt light, fun, and uplifting. Compared to Nomad’s Party Hostel, Mayan Monkey had a happier, more relaxed feel while still being social. Even if it costs a little more, I think the beach access alone makes it worth it. I’d absolutely stay here again.

Staff was nice, and the vibes are amazing. The only issue is that the room did not have any sort of mini fridge or water. The room itself is very spacious, beautiful and comfy.
