6/10 Good

This was a shared 6 person mixed room. However, the room was right next to the bar/dining area and was consistently noisy in the evening till around 1am. The music was played sooooo loudly that it affected sleeping. The bed was comfortable, the shared restroom surprisingly clean.

I transferred to the solo bedroom. Much less noise. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. The shower was a bit inconvenient as there was nowhere to place the soap. The soap was also very jelly-like so it couldn’t come out the pump. Luckily I had my own.

Overall, I’m happy with my experience, but there are a couple of things that need improvement. The first is the check-in process—it honestly takes too long. After a long flight, that lengthy check-in was something I won’t forget. The second issue is with the restaurant. If you're planning to have breakfast there, make sure to set aside about an hour and a half. The service is quite slow, which can get a bit frustrating. However, the hostel itself is fantastic, the staff is friendly, and we had a great time overall. Thank you! Just please speed things up a bit—I paid to spend more time by the beach or pool.

Overall, I’m quite pleased with my stay, but there are a couple of areas that need improvement to make the experience even better. First and foremost, the check-in process could be streamlined significantly. It honestly felt like it took forever. After a long, tiring flight, I was really looking forward to relaxing, but that prolonged check-in made it difficult to start my stay on a positive note. It’s something that could definitely be sped up for the comfort of future guests. The second area for improvement is the restaurant service, especially during breakfast. While the food itself was enjoyable, the service was slower than expected. If you plan to have breakfast there, I’d recommend setting aside at least an hour and a half. The slow pace can be a bit frustrating, especially if you’re eager to get out and enjoy the day. The leisurely service felt more inconvenient than relaxing, which was slightly disappointing.That said, there’s a lot to love about this hostel. The atmosphere is inviting, and the facilities are top-notch. The staff members are friendly, welcoming, and genuinely seem to care about making sure you have a great time. Despite the minor inconveniences, we really enjoyed our stay and made some wonderful memories. Thank you for the experience! Just a suggestion—if things could move a little faster, especially at check-in and breakfast, it would really enhance the overall experience. After all, I’d rather spend my time soaking up the sun by the beach

I had an amazing time in Mayan Monkey. What I liked about it was the social and friendly vibe of both the tourists and the staff. I mostly liked the social setting where people come to eat breakfast in the morning and then vibe and socialize after that. Also I really liked the scenery right outside Mayan Monkey with both the lagoon view being amazing and the other side where there is the street lined with palm trees and luxury condos and hotels which reminds me of Miami. Overall it’s a place I’d heavily recommend to anyone who visits Cancun.
