    The value for money at this hostel was excellent, with clean and well-maintained rooms. The location was great, just a short walk to the beach and town center. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making my stay even more enjoyable.

    The food for breakfast could be improved with a wider variety of options.

    We had a fantastic time staying at this hostel. the location was perfect, just a short walk from the beach and within easy reach of all the attractions. Our room was clean and comfortable, with a private bathroom that had all the necessary amenities. the staff were friendly and helpful, making us feel right at home. the breakfast provided was delicious and a great way to start the day. We also loved the rooftop terrace, perfect for enjoying a drink and soaking in the view of the city.

    We recently had a fantastic stay at the hostel in Veracruz. the atmosphere was great, and the owners and staff at Oyster were incredibly nice and helpful. the location was perfect, as it was just a short walk from the malecon and close to everything we needed on the street. We loved that the hostel had a kitchen and multiple places to relax, such as the terrace. the dorm beds were arranged in a way that offered privacy, and the recent remodeling made everything feel fresh and new. Vicky and Raúl, the owners, went above and beyond to provide us with all the information we needed, even arranging a taxi for us when we had to catch a night bus after check-out. They were also kind enough to drive us to the airport for our early morning flight. We highly recommend this hostel!

    It was all superb! 😊.

    the atmosphere was great and the owners and staff were extremely friendly and helpful. I felt like part of a family during my stay. the location was perfect, just minutes away from the malecon and a short walk from the city center. I loved having a fully equipped kitchen and various places to relax, like the terrace. I highly recommend Oyster Hostel. Cons: Couldn't fault it. 👌.

    I recently stayed at Oyster Hostel for a week during my vacation in Veracruz. The staff was incredibly friendly and the location was perfect for exploring the city. I loved having access to the fully equipped kitchen and the free coffee in the morning was a nice touch. The dorm bathroom was always kept clean and the bed curtains provided extra privacy. The small metal boxes for valuables were a convenient addition. it was one of the best hostels I've stayed in, and I highly recommend it.

    Would recommend this hotel.

    Located close to the beach, Oyster Hostel provided a rejuvenating stop during our Mexico trip. The dorms were comfortable and equipped with personal pods, allowing for a cozy and private stay. The rooftop offered a pleasant view of the ocean, perfect for unwinding after a long day. The staff was friendly and welcoming, ensuring a pleasant experience. Additionally, the hostel's central location allowed us to explore all the attractions within walking distance.

    Enjoyed the welcoming and helpful staff, who provided great advice on road conditions and places to avoid. Appreciated the secure parking for my motorcycle, just a short walk from the hostel.- Loved the individual curtains and lights in the dorm, which provided privacy.- The free coffee in the mornings and air conditioning during the night were nice bonuses.

    It would have been great to have a fan in the dorm, as it gets quite hot during the day. The cleanliness could be improved.

    The value for money at this hostel is incredible - you won't find anything better in town. Our room was lovely, with a comfortable size and an en suite bathroom - such a great deal! The location was perfect, just a short walk to both the beach and the city center. The staff was friendly and helpful, providing great advice for exploring the area.

    The breakfast selection could use some improvement - pancakes with maple syrup were tasty but a bit limited.

    During our recent stay at the budget-friendly option in Veracruz, we were pleasantly surprised by the warm and friendly owner who was always available to provide helpful directions and advice. The location of the hostel was convenient, with everything within walking distance and easy access to the cheap seaside bus line. The private room we stayed in was clean, comfortable, and had a nice private bathroom. Additionally, the breakfast provided was delicious, offering eggs, beans, fried bananas.

    While the ground level rooms could be a bit noisy at night, it was not overwhelming. The WiFi occasionally cut in and out, but overall it was manageable.
