Clean with facilities you can use

This is really a 1-2 day place unless you are taking tour from here. All tours I saw were high in price, no budget options. Hostel a little walk from Zocola with not much locally other than other hotels and cafes

Lugar agradable

La cama no era muy cómoda, quizá demasiado suave para mi. La habitación poco iluminada por luz natural. El personal muy amable. En general un lugar adecuado para pasar un buen rato en Veracruz y tener una estancia segura.

Felt like home

I really loved staying here. The management is dedicated to the travelers and the other travelers are wonderful as well. I didn't want to leave so quickly but they were booked up so I couldn't stay any longer. From the hostel it is easy to walk to the zocalo, but I couldn't find a grocery store nearby. Veracruz is a larger city than I expected!

Friendly and Kind Staff

Location is okay since it is about two blocks away from the malecon but about a 15 minute walk from downtown. The staff is extremely kind and helpful. Also, the common area does not have air conditioning which makes breakfast extremely uncomfortable because it is so hot and humid.
