We stayed here for four nights after friends recommended the place. We got a private room (Room6) which had two single beds. The room was clean. It also had a futon with a welded metal frame that had seen better days. The TV didn't work and we were only able to get it to turn on one night. The room... More

The only saving grace this place has is a decent breakfast and the fact you get to use a bike for no extra cost during your stay. Now for the negatives: - the place is dirty and run-down - they have a sign that they are an HI (hostelling international) hostel but won't give you a discount if you have... More

This hostel is definitely a "good" deal in such an expensive place like the Tulum area but honestly- it is not a nice place to stay. All of the employees are rude and unfriendly and most of them are obviously not interested in being any different. Its obvious that they know people will stay here no matter how they act... More

This hostel certainly has its ups and downs. The price is good, and it includes bikes and breakfast but due to the high traffic of travellers, we had to wait for bikes to become available and we never ended up having breakfast there (too busy). Some staff are friendlier and more helpful than others but they won't volunteer up any... More

It's easy to find from the ADO busstation and that's the only positive thing I can say about this hostel. My friend got bitten by bedbugs, the staff is not friendly, they don't clean the toilets, there were dead flies and bugs lying all over the room and there were cats lying on the beds. Don't stay here, we where... More

Lobo Inn is probably the most economical hostel in Tulum and for only $10 you get a bed + breakfast + Free wifi and access to 4 computers + bike; awesome deal!!. Besides, the hostel is located quite close to the ruins, gorgeous beaches and downtown; bikes are very handy to get around! For this price, you don't get hot... More

Got bedbugs here in 2008 from staying in the dorms. The whole joint was dirty, pool was nonfunctional, and all the bikes were broken. The owners provided a good breakfast each morning, more than just toast and coffee, and were helpful in setting up tours for snorkeling in the cenote. Advantage - bus stop across the street and Tulum Ruins.

Though the personal is more engaged in watching loud tv in the common area and making food on at least half of the working stoves (and leaving the dishes for the next day). The material service is good as there are 4 working computers with internet (2 with videochat), free bikes and free taxi from the city center. The cleanliness... More

Rooms were not really clean, the internet wasn't working or it was working really slow. Also we had some problems with AC. The good thing was free renting of the bikes, but otherwise we were not really happy with the hostel. Location is good, becuse it is really close to the ruins and beach that you can reach by bikes.
