This hostal is right in downtown, plus it has an additional hostal outside with a nice beach, and they give you the transport for free.

Breakfast is average, the place is nice and the people is really friendly. 

The only think that I did not like is that if you are leaving in the evening they charge you 50MXN to keep the luggage

Great Place to stay

The hostel is not by lake as description but in center, they offer free transportation to lake beach club which is 7km away, close to eateries, peaceful place, air conditioning in rooms, good budget stay 

Descent place to stay 

I stayed at the hostel located in downtown, which it is well located since it is near the major square and really close to the lagoon, you can have lunch or dinner at the restaurants and swim at the lagoon of 7 colors.

It is really lovely and has a good atmosphere related with nature, I really loved that they did have a/c at the shared room.

The beach club just amazing and so relaxing, I loved being there, next time I come I Will book to stay there.

Just one detail I would love that the staff could answer the phone quickly, I had to call several times to get an answer and unfortunately I had some incovenience with my bed :( when I came back from touristing all day I noticed something white and kinda viscous drop near my pillow.

I spoke with the staff but I didn't get much response, besides that everything was good.

Really good place to stay but just one thing

We stayed at the hostel for one week. 
Pros: the outside area is nice and green and the shuttle to the lake is good. 
Cons: The rooms are verry small and at the breakfast the empoyees are stingy with the use of milk and yoghurt: they don‘t allowe you to put it on your cereals. Moreover, they mistreat their animal. If you go there please keep on asking to let them out of their cage.

Good central location, although the staff weren't particularly helpful. Rooms were slightly small for the number of beds. Breakfast was a very loose definition of what was on offer. Great free bus service to their private beach (which is much nicer than the beach IN town)

Good location, staff not too great

Falling off a ledge 2ft/60cm onto gravel and concrete left me with scrapes but no broken bones. An unlighted walkway to the restroom, no railing, no illumination, here you take your chances. No improvement expected. The desk blames the quests-"they turn out the lights"  there's a lot of ways that could be avoided, but since they won't, avoid hostel yaxche as if your life depended on it.

Avoid hostel yaxche as if your life depended on it

Shameful hygiene!  Dirty sheets, no pillow cases, toilets and showers not cleaned during our three days of stays.  Even the breakfast is dirty, with flies and hairs in the jam.
 The staff is even more deplorable: no smiles during the stay but nervous to the point of yelling at customers when they do not understand a request formulated in English!
 For example, they prefer to watch a series on the front desk computer rather than turning on the air conditioning before 10 at night, which makes it impossible to be in the room before that time.  And they are also stingy to the point of tripping the air conditioning every morning at 6 a.m. which makes the rooms stuffy from 7 a.m.
 I rarely write comments but this is really unheard of I only mentioned a few things but for example a member of staff came into our room at 2am the first night!  and when we surprised him asking what he was doing he told us he was "checking that everything was ok" and left straight away.  I can only advise against this place.
 A star for the garden which is nevertheless nice.

 Please note: towels are charged per day and additional costs if you have more than one piece of luggage per person or if you leave your luggage in storage for a few hours after your check out.

Scandalous staff and hygiene:

-I couldn't book on booking as i usually do, but still could see the price. When i asked, the manager (as friendly as a prison door, as the rest of the staff btw) refused that i pay the booking price, si  i paid more.
- The dorm was small for 10, it seems old and it was very cold.
- The"continental" breakfast was very average. Moreover they furnish food just a little at the time, to make sure you don't take too much...
- The hostel is still getting built. So it's not really peaceful. 
- And last but not least, you have to leave after the chek-out. You can't even wait at the hostel. 
So when i wen to take back my backpack, i sat 10 mn because it was still early to catch my bus. A employee asked me to leave, or told me that i would have to pay extra fees if i wanted to stay longer. This is honestly the first time i see this in an hostel, ans i have travelled a lot ! Usually, you can at least wait a few hours if your bus is a bit later, and use the kitchen and the bathroom. 
So for all these reasons, i can say i have never seen worst hostel and staff in my life.

Worst hostel experience ever !

I stayed here and booked a tent but changed to a cheaper option of the dorm, the dorm was really small for 10 ppl and the air con doesn’t reach all the beds so was too hot for some and too cold for others. The main issue was the staff they are just not very hostel friendly for example they wanted me to pay a fee for changing rooms despite moving to a cheaper option, make you pay to store luggage. The toilets were also not clean and when someone asked to clean them they just shrugged! I spent lots of time at the yak lake house which is completely the opposite, clean great atmosphere helpful staff... def worth the extra money! 

Don’t stay here pay more to stay at the yak lake house 

It is a decent place with a shuttle to a private beach during the day but this is the first time in 3 years travelling that I am asked to pay to wait my bus ! I paid my night with my own tent 180 pesos (10 dollars to sleep in a tent in mexico is pretty expensive), to learn (after check in obviously) that I will have to pay 50 extra after 3pm if I want to leave my bag here until my bus leave at 9pm (good business as most of the buses leave at night from here). When I said I wasn't very happy with that rule the receptionist said "I don't care, go with your backpack in a park for 6 hours". Travelling in south or central America you get sick of people always trying to make as much money as they can from you, usually hostels are a place where you can escape that gringo chase...
