The Mayflower was a generally very good hostel - it was very clean (and sand free - a hard thing to normally keep up when so close to a beach!), had pretty good facilities including a reasonable kitchen and the staff were very helpful, changing bed linen whenever asked and happily providing towels to borrow. The best things about the... More

Stayed at the Mayflower for a few days in early January. Room was basic (pte bath, small balcony, no a/c) but clean and well maintained. Staff were friendly. Did not see much of the other guests as I spent most of my time away from the hotel. Good location on the Adoquin. Overall I was pleased, especially for the cost.... More

We had two different rooms here. Our first night the room was at the back of the hostel which got all the noise from the nightly party on the roof terrace. We moved to a front room with a balcony. It was nice. There is a lot of noise. The bar on the next street has really loud live entertainment... More

We have stayed at both Oaxaca/Pto. Escondito Hostals . They are well located for the towns they are in. Both are clean and nice helpful people run them. English is spoken and they can set up tours at both of these. The one in Oaxaca is right next to a lovely park and good resurants and about 6 blocks from... More

good facilities kitchen, restroom pool/bar, bath-wc hole- day clean, reception Esp. and Eng. spoken. handy central, to every part of area, 5min to center of city/ bus terminal/ Big grosserie store. 2 min to beach/ beach shopping street

Very handy to find if you are getting the bus to Puerto Escondido. Enjoyed stay here only problem was pool table area was closed at 11pm so you couldnt really stay in and have a few beers nobody wanted that,other then that good hostel,spent many hours hungover in the hamoc!

Messed up the booking, dirty, stinky sheets, full of roaches and no hot water at all. Just don't stay here....you can get other places with just as good a location for the same money and way better.

The Mayflower is a great place to stay as the prices are good and the rooms are excellent. There are great facilities - full kitchen, billard table, terrace, free internet etc. It is really close to nightlife and the beach of course. The only downside is that there are a few strict rules in place e.g kicking you out of... More

I stayed at the Mayflower with Minnie and the gang for over 7 weeks! Amazing! Minnie really knows how to show her guests the utmost courtesy and hospitality with unwavering professionalism. She fluidly jumps from German to Spanish to English. Her place is large beautiful and super clean! Her staff are great! Security is friendly and gave me a real... More
