B & B Popol Vuh

PROS: This hostel is located right on the beach, right on the main avenue where all the nightlife is. CONS: The staff of this hotel turned an otherwise lovely place into an uncomfortable experience. The staff constantly camped out in the main courtyard, watching over and intruding on the privacy of the guests. Also, there was about one minute of hot water, no WiFi signal in the room, and no TV, as advertised. When this was brought up, the staff did nothing to correct this in a timely manner.

The hostel is in a great location and Gama the guy that works on reception is very helpful and introduces all the guests to one another. However, the negatives are, the private rooms only have a shared washrooms/toilets which are far from luxury. The towels which are included are full of holes and the place needs a tidy up. For private rooms, breakfast is included but its just an egg and bread. I think in all honestly, the owner knows because of the location people will stay here regardless! For meeting people it's great.

I am a female and was traveling alone therefore a little nervous when I got to Popol Vuh... didn't know what to expect. The manager, Gama, came out and immediately introduced me to the other guests. My four nights there were the BEST part of my trip. Gama showed us all around town and always had some tequila on hand. The hotel is right on the beach and the rooms are comfortable and cozy. I wouldn't stay anywhere else in Playa.
