Casa Pepe

Location, ambiance

We stayed in an 8 bed corner unit. It was noisy, oh, mosquitoes 🦟

Great location as far as being in centro and walkable. The beds and pillows were very comfy. And the girls I met in my dorm were very nice.

Our toilet flooded and it took them a while to come clean the mess. We weren’t able to use the toilet in our dorm during my stay. It wasn’t as friendly/social as I was hoping but luckily I still made friends with a couple of my dorm mates

This is kind of hostels I dream to stay everywhere. Everything is thought out. Every detail, small and big things are for guests starting from design of the space, bed place - it is like capsule completely private, having everything and quite roomy and comfortable. Amazing common spaces as well as their social programs including excursions, classes and hikes. Management is of the highest class. When I returned to CDMX I chose the same hostel from the same brand.

Everything is great

I like the location, the building and how clean it was. Also bendings are quite new and quality.

The insane amount of NOISE! if you stay here just for partying then might be a good one but for me it wasn't comfortable to sleep noise from inside(rooftop bar) also outside(traffic, street vendors etc). Also don't book here thinking there's a kitchen and you can cook. It's very small and dysfunctional, 2 people in the kitchen bumping each other can't imagine on rush hours. Also there's no place to eat your food, they kind of want you to pay for their breakfast. Also as a personal note, I didn't like how unhelpful the stuff was with my initial booking. I booked the wrong days and I immediately contacted them in the same minute but they didn't respond or sent me replies I should contact the platform I booked. I decided to go there to solve it they said it fixed but I was still charged the full amount (not booking.com) I really don't get it, they take 0 responsibility. As a side note, don't book tours here their markup is crazy. I went to lucha libre myself ticket was 200 pesos in Arena, also went to Teotihuacán myself costs 170 pesos (metro+bus) and you can get a guide there or there's some amazing podcasts/audiobooks about it, do you research before booking.
