    We had such a fantastic time at El Sunset! The owner, Marco, was incredibly helpful and accommodating throughout our stay. The hostel had a great atmosphere and we enjoyed spending time on the beautiful patio upstairs. The kitchen was also a nice bonus. If we find ourselves back in this area, we will definitely choose El Sunset again. I highly recommend this place!

    I stayed at El Sunset for a quick overnight trip to Sayulita and the female dorm room was perfect for my needs. The spacious room had ample natural light and fresh air, with comfortable beds and individual fans. The outdoor terraces were a great place to relax and enjoy my morning coffee. The hostel is conveniently located near bars, restaurants, and a short walk to the beach. The staff was friendly and Vikingo, the hostel dog, was absolutely adorable. I had a wonderful experience at El Sunset.

    Totally recommend this hotel.

    Hot showers with good pressure. Friendly and helpful owner who gave great tips for beaches, restaurants, and getting around. Nice building with potential.

    Rooms were dirty and not well looked after. Doors didn't shut properly.

    We had a wonderful experience staying at El Sunset. the dorm room was spacious, with comfortable beds and a large bathroom. the kitchen had all the necessary amenities for cooking, which we took advantage of every day. the recent upgrades, such as the added gate at the stair entrance and more plants, gave the hostel a cozy atmosphere. Each bed had its own fan and big lockers, ensuring a comfortable and secure stay. the owner was very nice and accommodating, always ready to help. Cons: Nothing to mention 🙌.

    I felt right at home at El Sunset. Marco, the owner, greeted me by name and was incredibly friendly. The common areas were spacious and peaceful, providing a quiet escape from the bustling city. The location was convenient for accessing the beach and downtown area. Communication through WhatsApp made everything easy. The rooftop view was stunning, and the well-equipped kitchen was a bonus. Despite a few cleanliness issues and maintenance needs, I could see that improvements were being made. I would recommend this hostel for a laid-back stay in Puerto Vallarta.

    Great location near trendy bars and good restaurants. Short walk to the beach and bus stop to nearby attractions.

    Unclean facilities, including a dirty kitchen and stinky bathroom. Ants crawling on the bedsheets.

    Marco, the owner, was welcoming and made sure all the guests felt included. the common areas were spacious and I always felt safe during my stay. the location was perfect, with easy access to the beach and the main road into downtown. I also appreciated the use of the WhatsApp messenger app for communication with Marco and the other guests. El Sunset provided a chill and relaxing atmosphere at a great bargain. Cons: Cannot find any fault. 🌟👌.

    The female dorm room was spacious and had plenty of natural light and fresh air. Each bed had a fan and electrical sockets to charge my phone. the beds were also very comfortable. I loved the relaxing outdoor spaces where I could enjoy my morning coffee and chat with other travelers. the hostel was quiet and peaceful, yet conveniently located near bars, restaurants, and cafes. It was only a 5-minute walk to the nearest beach. Plus, the hostel dog, Vikingo, was incredibly sweet and adorable. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Cons: Couldn't find any faults at all. 😊.

    The beds were comfortable and the bathroom was clean. The location was great, being close to the beach and restaurants. The best part was the friendly and helpful staff.

    The cleanliness of the hostel could be improved. The kitchen was not kept in the best condition and there were some maintenance issues.

    Charming!

    There is a dog, although he is nice and very well behaved, as well as does not bark, just be careful not to leave food out!

    I had a great time during my New Year's stay at this hostel. The common areas were spacious and inviting, perfect for meeting other travelers. The location was convenient, with a quiet beach just a few blocks away and various restaurants nearby. the hostel owner was friendly and made an effort to engage with guests.

    There were a few aspects that could be improved. The cleanliness of the hostel could have been better, especially in the dorm rooms and bathrooms.
