    The only downside was that the kitchen was a bit neglected. So it needs a bit of improvement.

    The atmosphere was great, and the host was very friendly and gave us some tips where to eat and what to see. We loved hammock a lot. The location is good, the room was clean and tidy.

    Better lightning for reading. Suggest putting a chair or stool in the room for sitting. Two towels and provide a hand towel or washcloth. Very basic!

    Clean, comfortable bed, great shower!

    The wifi didn't work well and there were a lot of mosquitoes, but that was the case on all of Isla Holbox.

    It was a nice and comfortable stay, within walking distance of the center. The air conditioning worked well and was definitely a need.

    At some point there was no water. For us that was no problem at all, but it is good to know that this could happen. It shouldnt be a reason not to go here, I would highly recommend this place.

    The room is spacious and beautifully decorated. The bathroom is big and tidy, and they cleaned the room during our stay so it was clean and nice the whole time. Also the room is airconditioned and there is a fan available as well. And last but not least, outside is a very comfortable area with hammocks.

    -Bad wifi -The room wasn't clean when we got there -Our door lock broke in the middle of our trip and I had to enter by the window twice to open the door from inside. We weren't able to lock it for the rest of our stay -You need to ask for toilet paper -Full of mosquitoes and cockroaches (had to kill 6-8 of them) -The owner's dogs will wake you up barking in the middle of the night or at dawn -If you plan on using the kitchen, it's really dirty -No shower mat -Bathroom is getting wet everywhere because the faucet is dripping -The room smells of humidy. I advise you not to touch the shower curtain aswell. -So humid, nothing is drying. Had to throw 2 pairs of shoes away because it was moldy -Water stoped working 2 times so can't take shower nor going to the bathroom -It's located 12-15 min from the beach

    Le propriétaire, Nacho, est super gentil!

    Disappointing

    It was very disappointing. We knew it was a simple place (we don't need much!), but this place was just... bad. When we arrived no one was there to greet us or tell us which room was ours. The bathroom sliding door didn't close fully (you could hear everything...). There was no shower curtain and the sink tap was constantly leaking; that combined with sand from the patio area meant the bathroom was a muddy mess in under 10 mins (which only got worse as the days went on). We were completely left on our own, not knowing who worked there from day 1, so when our toilet paper finished we had to go into a working shed on site and take some ourselves.

    I would say this place is 'what you see is what you get', but that would be pushing it. The decor is very mexican, there is a shared kitchen, and the surroundings are quiet (around 10mins walking from the centre). Outside patio with hammocks is nice.

    The room wasn’t clean and there was mold. Because of that the smell was really unpleasant. Additionally, there were lots of mosquitos and no mosquito net was provided. We also had cold water 2 of 3 days. Last but not least, couldn’t reach the host when we arrived. Other guests helped us find him to get into the room.

    It has nice garden

    We had no electricity or water for the whole of the first day. We had to ask for a candlelight. I know it is a local problem, but maybe there is a way to deal with it.

    The owner made us a great Italian dinner, which we paid for. The owner is very nice

    Excellent budget option in Holbox - don't look elsewhere! The room was quite big for two people and the bed was huge! We loved the location, just a 15 min walk from the ferry and only two blocks from Holbox beach, as well as the center with restaurants and bike rentals. t's also midway between Punta Mosquito and Punta Cocos, just about a 10 min bike ride. The highlight though was the staff, extremely kind and always available to help! Thanks a lot Nacho and Luis :)

    It’s a little removed from the town.

    I loved the personality of this place. It feels more like you’re getting a feel of the local culture than if you stay at a resort. The art on the walls is beautiful, the room is comfortable and clean, the people are lovely, and I loved lying in the hammock just outside my room. My favourite moment was when the older man who works there came over to where I was on the hammock and made me a little bird woven from a pond frond.

    Perhaps a bit far from the centre - about a 10 min walk which may not seem like a lot but in the heat it feels like a lot. No ammenities other than a kitchen and 3 hammocks.

    Very affordable. Lovely family running the hotel. Kitchen has everything you need. There is a small market down the road where we would go everyday to have fresh juice and delicious lunch !
