Great place to stay for a few days, the staff is very attentive and surroundings all though it's not the prettiest i promise it is quite safe at least in my opinion. The best part is it is located near a public transit station!
They try to scam tourist as I stayed an extra night which I booked via online and I was told when I was about to leave there is a fee for extending my stay. That is ridiculous so they can make extra cash. This should be written up front.
I know it's a hostel so my expectations were accordingly. The route from the subway to the property felt unsafe at night, I was not given a key to the shared room as the were no more keys available, and I had to rely on the staff when re-entering. The floor is made of wood, which is noisy when walking. I mean, if you only need a place to sleep and take a shower for a small price, it's okay, but IMO, the Casa MX hostel near Zocalo is way better.
The Hostel was good in general, close to bus and subway stations, it was not a party hostel so there was no noise, rooms where spacious and clean. What really needs improvement is the cleanness of the showers. I stayed there for 3 nights and the floors inside the shower were discusting, old soap, toilet paper and this big chunks/balls of hair on the floor. Took three showers in seperate stalls and everytime the floor was not good.
The beds are good with full privacy curtains. They don’t include a private lamp however. The electrical outlet in my bunk was loose, so cords fell out too easily. Staff were very friendly. The kitchen and bar area need better signage. The neighbourhood is a bit seedy but I didn’t feel unsafe walking around and it’s not that far from downtown.
The kitchen was usually filthy with Roaches. The staff would sometimes answere you and other times they would ignore you. They wanted to milk you as much as possible and when you don't spend money there they want you to stay elsewhere. Felt unsafe, unwelcomed. Overheard various racist and homophobic comments. Would never stay there again, unless they hired brand new staff.
The kitchen was extremely filthy with roaches. This was definitely not the place to try and get any kind of sleep as they would play weird techno music (not the cool kind of techno) starting very early in the morning, during the week and on weekends. Some of the employees were rude, and they would not talk to you when you would greet them in the morning or at night.
Since the place is low budget you do get many interesting characters that stay there, also on a budget so you feel like you have to watch your belongings from thieves.
I had a few low cost items stolen, they were inexpensive, but it wasn't the cost it was the act.
The only good thing I could find about this place, is that I met some interesting people from different places. And that it wasn't too far from the subway, and one of the main strips in the area. But I also met many people on budgets who were probably looking for help or some kind of come up.
I definitely would never stay here again. Horrible experience.
Además de la ocasional caca de perro y charco de orines; hay que tolerar las costumbres de algunos huéspedes de escupir flemas desde sus camas y de defecar fuera de los inodoros. Hay que tolerarlos porque el inexistente personal de limpieza va a dejar eso hasta el otro día, o más tiempo. El único recepcionista que no ha renunciado irá horrorizado a pedirte que te calles y te sacará de la terraza sin chistar; solo no le pidas que te cambien de habitación para evadir a los de higiene relajada porque jamás moverá un dedo. La gerencia es más un rumor que una presencia administrativa en ésta vecindad, mal llamada hostal. Gente lavando ropa en cubetas, tendiendo sus calzones en las camas, y demás superficies. “Voluntarios” que dejan reseñas estelares a cambio de una noche gratis. Toda una experiencia el lugar. Por mera decencia, habrían de ponerle un gramo de atención a ese hostal y no tirar a la basura el potencial por una gerencia peor que mediocre.
Está virtualmente vacío el hostal pero le suben el precio a la noche por los eventos en la ciudad. La propiedad sigue en deterioro y ni siquiera han removido el moho de algunos baños. Está muy descuidado.

Ya necesita una manita de gato. La propiedad está deteriorada y hay varias camas que tienen vencidos los cortineros. Se queda mucha gente como para que no se justifiquen los arreglos.
Sigue siendo un lugar aceptable para estar; es increíble como siempre hay huéspedes latosos y el personal pareciera estar de adorno. En ésta ocasión, mi cama me la entregaron sucia, con migajas y una bolsa de Doritos entre el colchón y la madera. Nunca rellenaron el jabón del baño, ni pusieron más papel higiénico.Le pedí al chico de recepción que callara a un huésped que puso su celular a todo volumen en la madrugada y nada, tuve que callarlo yo unos minutos después. ¿Tengo que ser yo el que haga cumplir las reglas en el hostal?

Todo bien, excepto por los huéspedes que desconocen la existencia de otros baños y van a tocar la puerta para importunar.
Recomendaría que quienes trabajan estén más familiarizados con la CD. Debido a que desconocen las calles o lugares o simplemente no dan la información que se solicita para ir al zócalo o lugares concurridos.
El horario debió vencer a la 3pm pero comentaron que a las 12 era la limpieza y tenía que desocupar el cuarto.

Excelente hostal, terribles huéspedes. Maldigo al sujeto que se puso a fumar a las 3 am en el patio del cuarto “Escultores” pensando que nadie lo iba a notar y que nos fumigó con sus humos. Me salió una pequeña cucaracha en el baño, quizás sería bueno tapar las coladeras en la noche.
