This is definitly one of the best hostels we ever stayed (and we are already travelling for 20 month)!! The atmosphere is relaxing and the staff very friendly (un abrazo para Maria!). We met a lot of interesting people and ended up staying for 3 weeks (instead of one)... Breakfast is great (different every day) and you can walk to... more

We've stayed here for 3 nights. The owners are a Mexican couple with a young child. Friendly atmosphere. Only disadvantage is the location: close to a big road (noise) and far from town. Easy to take a taxi to town, not expensive. Although: close to the ruins and the beach (to get to the beach: just walk through a hotel).... more

This was our second stay at the Lobo inn. The owners are wonderful and very helpful. Often taking guests into town on a whim. The breakfasts they serve is amongst the best I've had anywhere. The In is about 2km north of Tulum on the main highway. There is a lot of traffic here and the inn is next to... more

A very nice family feeling here. Excellent breakfast oriented toward the late sleeper at 9 am. The community feeling is the best I'v experienced. The owners go out of their way to be helpful. The problem for me was the trucks on the highway which are right next to the front rooms. Cynthia moved me to the back which helped... more

It's run by Cynthia and Lobo, who are very friendly, provide a cooked breakfast each morning and will drive you into town or to the supermarket if you want. The rooms are well priced and clean and there a small pool. The... more

Staying at the lobo has MANY benefits. Close to the ruins and 1km away from the sea. It's located on the highway so the bus drops you right there. The staff take you on a regular basis to the town (for free) to buy stuff. They can also get you a bike. Great cooking appliances also. The staff is GREAT,... more

I am torn with this hostel. Good points: The owners are great, Cynthia is very kind, she drove us to town/supermarket etc and creates a family atmosphere by cooking everyone breakfast each morning. It is a very social hostel, we made a lot of friends and they are perfectly happy to let people stay up drinking/socialising. The room was nice,... more

Stayed there during our honeymoon in Mexico, and really loved the place. The people who run it are super nice and very helpful with everything. Very importantly, the breakfast is absolutely delicious. The place is a walking distance from the ruins and from the beach. The city is further away, but the owners go there a few times a day,... more
