    The town itself is a bit on the dull side. Far from the beaches.

    The dorm room was quite roomy but if it is a full house I think it would get pretty stuffy, and with only one bathroom it would not be ideal. The terrace was really good, hammocks up there, and it overlooks the football pitch. The AC was on at night, so i would suggest getting a bed close to the AC. The kitchen looked pretty good, there is a laundromat next door charging 25MXP per kilo.

    There were some cockroaches in the bathroom. No shampoo was provided. The common areas are prone to mosquitoes.

    The private room was fairly clean and was quiet at night. The ceiling fan sufficed to cool the room, and the air conditioner was rarely needed. It was nice to be able to hang a few clothes to dry on the rooftop clotheslines. The kitchen was well stocked. Maribel promptly answers the door if the main door is closed.

Everyone super helpful as to where to go and how to get around by bus or taxi. Highly recommend for anyone needing a reasonable priced good accommodation. Rooftop deck with hammocks chairs tables is very breezy and fun to watch soccer games. Only wish it had a co work space and a pool !

    The private room I was given backed onto the street which was quite noisy but bearable. The wifi is very spotty and weak. It was down for most of the day. Not great if you need to work.

    Good solid booking in la Crucecita. Nice check-in and out. Very comfortable bed, clean, well-stocked kitchen, excellent location close to everything. The staff are doing a great job and are very helpful and professional.

    I can't justify disliking anything other than I didn't meet any other international travellers.

    Location excellent! Comfy bed. Kitchen facilities, common area, hammock on terrace. Clean. Very secure digs. Staff sooooo lovely and chatty. They'd speak English and I replied in Spanish. The main woman I don't think speaks English but she was pleasant enough.

    Excellent property, very clean, very well located
    • Leisure trip

    • Bunk Bed in Mixed Dormitory Room

    Internet could be better covering the whole property but is not 100% necessary. There was a charge paying with card so making a transfer is more convenient (free of charge). Next to a park with sports facilities becomes something good and bad at the same time, very nice view (behind the hostel) to the soccer field and threes but when there are local leagues playing could be very noisy since very very early in the morning.

    Great location in Crucecita you can walk to some places like the market, bars and restaurants and the main boulevard (Chahué) is close too. Confortable beds, good shower, good internet signal (just in the lobby). People running the hotel/hostel are very kind. Very clean, I recommend this place a lot.

    It’s around 20 min from the beach (but close to the city centre).

    The dorm is very spacious and so is the bathroom. The night receptionist was very kind and helpful. The kitchen is the largest and best equipped one I have ever found in a hostel.

    Everything was great, friendly, helpful and professional staff, facilities kept very clean, good large well equipped kitchen. Nice chill out area on the roof overlooking the public football pitch. Not a very social/traveller hostel so maybe not so good for solo travellers but had everything we needed and definitely recommend.

    I was charged 406 MXN pesos more than the price quoted by booking.com at the time of my reservation. The reservation states that you will pay cash at the property which is fine but the price should remain the same as the quote. The hotel showed me the confirmation they received from booking.com which included the commission charged. So in other words the hotel passed along to me the commission they should be paying to use the booking.com platform. I complained to booking.com and they just “passed the buck” so no-one took responsibility. I’ve never had this happen before and I’ve paid cash at lots of places.

    Decent sized private room, very clean with comfortable beds (daily housekeeping was a bonus). The shared kitchen is very clean, well organized and has everything you need to make almost any kind of meal. The terrace is a great place to hang out and relax- usually a cool breeze blowing through. Great location, within walking distance to 2 beaches.

    Nothing could have been better. It is perfect - just as is.

    Maribel Torres - the owner/operator of Hostel Azul y Blanco - is just wonderful. Very friendly and very helpful...! The hostel (itself) was certainly one-of the-cleanest and best-maintained places I have *ever* stayed at (anywhere in the world). I *highly recommend* this place - and, I am already looking forward to my next-stay there...!

    I didn't expect that much from a hostel we just needed something basic to stay and booked a private room. All we need is a clean bed, bedroom and bathroom, and a good wifi. Easy access to many other businesses. A good pressure of shower which is usually a bit problem in Huatulco.
