I really liked how warm and welcoming the hotel staff were from the moment we arrived. The room was spacious, clean, and had all the essentials we needed for a comfortable stay. The location was excellent — just a short walk to the beach and local restaurants. The pool area was quiet and relaxing, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring.

Staying at Che was simply amazing. Besides the great rooms and shared spaces (including the rooftop), the staff was very friendly, welcoming and helpful all the time. A big shout out to Camila and Ana, the hostel animators, they always made sure everyone had a blast during the hostel activities! Besides that, if you’re traveling alone, at Che if you want to, you will never be alone.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Great location, comfortable and secluded cubicle beds, air-conditioned at night, great common areas, and a good kitchen. Jose is a star and makes your stay comfortable and memorable. I hate this word but Hostel Tropico 20 has a 'vibe'. It is not a party hostel but manages to get a great sense of community. Highly recommended.

    Nice clean and cheap hostel. The staff were really friendly and I felt very safe in this hostel with 24/7 reception. The beds were comfy and I liked the capsule design.

    Great location, 10 min walk from the main street and beaches, close to shops and bus stations. They have a cold water machine you can use at any time to refill your water for free. Aircon in the room although on only during the night. Wifi works great. There’s LOADS of space in the room to put your stuff, get ready, charge phones, etc. Great vibes from other travellers as well, one of few hostels in Playa that has female-only dorms.
