    We had a great time at this hostel! the staff were very friendly and helpful, always there to assist us. the dorm room we stayed in was clean and comfortable, with air conditioning to keep us cool. One of the best parts was the delicious breakfast included in our stay - we enjoyed mouthwatering waffles with fruit and maple syrup. Plus, we loved the option to refill our water for free and use the kitchen to cook our own meals.

    The beds for relaxing on the rooftop were not usable.

    The staff were incredibly helpful, providing me with valuable information about ferry schedules and things to do in the area. The facilities were nice, including a common room with Netflix and a rooftop terrace. I especially enjoyed being able to rent bicycles for free. The location was convenient, making it a perfect stopover for travelers headed to or from Belize. Despite a few minor drawbacks mentioned in other reviews, overall I would recommend this hostel for its friendly atmosphere and helpful staff.

    The rooftop of the hotel had amazing views of the city. The staff was very friendly and helpful, especially the receptionist who gave me great advice on how to travel to a nearby destination. Additionally, the rooms were clean, the beds were comfortable, and the AC worked well.

    The location of the hotel was not ideal as there were no supermarkets, nice restaurants, or bars nearby. The bathroom in the shared dorm was very small and there was no separation between the shower and the rest of the room, causing it to quickly flood.

    My stay at Downtown Hostel was a great experience. The common area was a nice place to relax and socialize. The breakfast provided was exceptional, with fresh fruits, toast, eggs, coffee. The hostel was clean and located in a safe area of the city. The staff, particularly Jorge, was knowledgeable and helpful in organizing day trips to places like Bacalar and Calakmul. The rooftop terrace was a lovely spot to hang out in the evenings. I would highly recommend this hostel.

    We had a pleasant surprise in Chamula, as the Downtown Hostel turned out to be a great place to stay. It was affordable, friendly, and offered quiet and comfortable rooms. We enjoyed our stay so much that we ended up extending it by two days, just to rest and relax. After experiencing noisy hostels in Bacalar that cost much more, this was a refreshing break. The location is convenient too, with easy access to collectivos for a quick trip to Bacalar. Cons: Nothing, no complaints at all. 😊.

    I stayed at Downtown Hostel for a few days and it was a great experience. The location was ideal, close to the pier, shops, and restaurants. The hostel provided free, good coffee in the mornings and had a well-equipped kitchen. The dorm bedrooms had air conditioning and lockers for storage. The hostel also had a nice rooftop terrace and a common room with a hammock and a big TV with Netflix. The staff, especially Jorge, was very helpful in recommending day trips and organizing activities.

    100% Recommend this hostel.

    The breakfast at Downtown Hostel Chetumal is amazing, especially the homemade orange juice. the staff is incredibly friendly and always available to offer advice. the WIFI connection is one of the best in Mexico. the building always has a nice, cool breeze, which makes it much more comfortable than being outside.

    I felt extremely comfortable during my stay and have no complaints whatsoever.

    The value for money was incredible, and the room was comfortable with great bunk beds. The location was perfect, close to the ferry and with an amazing view from the rooftop. The staff at Downtown Hostel were fantastic, friendly, and helpful.

    Hotel breakfast could use a wider variety of options.
