Hostelito Chetumal Hotel & Hostel
2.0 star property
8.2 out of 10, Very good, (62)
"I had a good time staying here! The tv had more channels than regular cable so I enjoyed that. AC worked great. The breakfast is coffee, cookies, and cereal. The location was excellent, two blocks from the malecón with many restaurants around and an Oxxo in the back. The only problem was that my bathroom sink was leaking. And I didn’t know I could ask for a blanket until I saw them in other rooms and wondered why I didn’t have one. So my second night was more comfortable for sure. :) "

8.6 out of 10, Excellent, (26)
"The pool is very far from the room. Sliding doors don’t close properly allowing mosquitos to come in. I don’t blame the staff. They are very friendly and tried to help however this property doesn’t look like anything advertised. The bed is made of cement and the mattress is hard. We can’t sit on the porch due to bats droppings and smells of bats. "
