Jeremy, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Solo traveling first time ever in 20s I was worried before I left. What if I didn’t like it or felt unsafe? Right away after checking in I felt the reality of this place. Amazing experience. Where else can you find a place to stay this affordable with this high of a standard. My stay at the Mayan monkey was nothing short of amazing. The breakfast was ridiculously good. The staff were super helpful and I felt very safe and welcomed by everybody there. I even lost my AirPods and a staff member found me and returned them. Looking forward to seeing you guys again. Bonus is the bathrooms are spotless.

Arvin Cary Dayao, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Convenient location as it’s right by a bus stop and there is a taco restaurant and OXXO steps away. Playa Chac Mool public access is literally across the street. The room itself was nice and comfortable. The breakfast was just ok. There are daily activities that you can join (we didn’t join any but it would be a nice option for more social people). Deducting a star because while we were there, 2 different people lost belongings (money and phone) in the property. Also after check out if you want to keep your stuff there, they charge $5 for the secure locker. Otherwise you can just leave it inside an unlocked cabinet right by the entrance and hope for the best.
