The location of the hostel is excellent, it is a short walk to both the Romantic zone and Downtown area. The local buses stop across the road making it simple to explore outside of Puerto Vallarta. The beds were spacious and each bed had its own curtain for privacy. The other guests were friendly and sociable that we met Staff communicated via WhatsApp, the staff member I spoke to was helpful and always responded quickly to any questions I had. Best of all staying at the hostel entitles guests to a wristband that provides discounted tours and attractions. I highly recommend Jets Naked Beach Boat Tour that takes place every Friday and Saturday, you’ll receive a 50% discount on the boat tour if you’re a guest at the hostel.

- Avg. price/night: UAH 1,841.997.8Scored 7.8GoodRated good· 825 reviewsGreat location in center, bus stop for leaving across street.The 12 bed mixed dorm is cubicles, which I like for privacy but you don't talk to the other travellers in your room as you don't even see them. A/C on at night was comfortable.Kitchen had enough for basic cooking but wouldn't want to be here when hostel was full as it might not be enough.

No safe in room, instead they have a large storage room with personal safes. Good cable, fairly decent wifi. Most staff really helpful and welcoming. Beach towels for a deposit. We booked a value windowless room and received a room with a window on the 1st floor instead.
TaylorYoung couple - Avg. price/night: UAH 5,180.158.1Scored 8.1Very goodRated very good· 1,532 reviewsGreat location, a lot of stores and restaurants close by. You can eat inside, go to food courts exactly across the street or try any of the restaurants. Great beach experience, even when there were huge waves 100 meters both directions from our hotel, we could always go for a swim on our beach - seems like the waves somehow subside in that place. We had nice mini-kitchen in the room and it helped us safe on our breakfasts a lot.

- Avg. price/night: UAH 2,183.017.9Scored 7.9GoodRated good· 986 reviewsPerfect backpacker hostel in the old part of Puerto Vallarta, just a couple of blocks from the beach and main plazas. Lots of food options and convenience stores nearby. Many nice spots to hang out around the hostel, and an awesome rooftop terrace were they serve breakfast and you can hang out. Nice vibe at the place, and I met a bunch of cool people here, both backpackers and mexicans on vacation. The owner was super cool and let me store my SUP board for a small fee. Muchas gracias por todo!SoheilSolo traveller

Markets, restaurants and basics near by. Bus stop is close and cheap, if you don't mind the 25 or so bus ride to old vallarta. Really great, thanks!
