Nílu Puerto Escondido by Selina

The pool area and look outs were absolutely gorgeous

The front desk guy was very rude and didn’t seem like he wanted to help anyone.

Great facilities

The attention provided by Jasiel at the front desk was very poor. We had a difficult situation unrelated to the hotel and asked for help, but Jasiel didn’t show any empathy at all and was rude to us.

Located centrally in Zicatela near the beach clubs, restaurants and active nightlife zone. The property had an onsite bar (must consume to hang there even for guests), two pools (one downstairs that often had DJs and one on top floor 80+ steps up). The shared bathrooms where decent and cleaned everyday but it’s bring your own soap/shampoo and people trashed the hell out of some of the toilets. There’s nice views of the beach and lots of plants which makes it feels more of an escape. The AC worked amazing in the little small room so that was the one big plus for me after coming back from being hot all day. The yoga class with Cathy was awesome and only free for guests on Mondays. This type of programming is what I expected from Selina.

The bar staff was a bit unfriendly and we received zero help lugging our stuff up the 80 stairs needed to get to our room. The room was beyond small with just enough room to sleep, hang some stuff up, and open up our suitcase. There was no moving room. The beds where hard, the pillows sucked, they don’t give you a blanket only a bed sheet to sleep and two towels which you’ll need to use for showering and the pool. It’s looking pretty rundown and needs renovations like doors for the shared showers that are for both genders. This one is major opportunity to work on because it’s very off putting to shower with just a curtain giving you privacy.

Location was good close to beach and internet was good

I can say many things but will summarize it in one sentence. This property doesn’t meet the high standards Selina had for its properties (now former properties) but still I stayed in several other former Selina properties and the level remained high. This isn’t the case In here.

Female attendant was very helpful and very nice.

Air conditioning was controlled by facility. No a/c from 11am to 7pm. Ceiling fan did not work properly at all.

Excellent location walking distance from surf beach and beach clubs.

4 stories high stairs to get to our room. Excellent cardio regime included in your price twice a day.

Location

Staff are not very attentive.No customer service. Wifi is poor.A male staff in the afternoon refused to give us fresh towels because he said that he has no access to housekeeping stuff. A night staff gave us otherwise.

Amazing location

Washrooms could have better quality and there was no kitchen

The location outside look stunning, close to the beach and have a lot of sharing area that designed special . The staff were very helpful. There is 2 pools and good CO work areas

The room facilities are old, not the clean. Sometimes there was not hot water in the shower and the worst part- there is party from the beach that you hear until 4 AM BE Careful. I slept terrible for 3 nights and wanted to change a room but all of them have a noise.. I tried to sleep with headphones but it destroyed the whole experience.. if you want to sleep a good night don’t got there.. it’s not Selina fault but the room don’t block any noise .( also like 50 stairs each time to arrive to the room)

The location. It was pretty close to the beach and many others places like restaurants and bars.

Kids making noise.

The coworking area is amazing. The bar is nice

Lots of mosquitoes. The kitchen was not very clean. The surroundings were clean but not very lively during the day.

Great location close to zicatela beach and beach bars. We stayed in a teepee which was fun!!

Bathrooms not the cleanest, room was small, noise at night time but it's fine if you have ear plugs.

We was visit many Selina hostels, and this is really great, the location is perfect, very near walking to everything, parking for motorbikes, beach in front, 2 great pools, very clean, everything good.

Nothing, everything is very well.

Coworking space is amazing. Lots of events. 2 swimming pools. Great wellness space as well.

Reserved a 4-bed dorm and was put in a 6-bed dorm. They did not put more than 4 people in the room, however the dorm looked way older and less cared for than the one in the picture.

Nothing, it’s a scam that show photos that are fake. The place is in ruin. No common area usable, the “cinema” doesn’t exist and it’s just a room used as deposit, the common kitchen doesn’t work and it’s dirty.

The girls at the bar are gentle and try their best. A part from letting homeless people in and next to the table, and using the toilet and shower.

Very cute, great amenities and close to beach.

Loud music is played until 3-4 am every night. Such a great spot but karaoke was extremely loud and Esmeralda’s across the street blared music every night making it difficult to sleep.

This place was so beautiful! You feel like you are staying in a jungle paradise! Fantastic views of the beach and a great location. The food in the bar was actually really good too.

Although this isn’t the hostel’s fault, it’s something to be aware of. Our room was facing the beach (great!) but there was music playing along the strip until 5am and we couldn’t get over how loud it was. It sounded like there was speakers in our room, it was that loud. We usually aren’t bothered by street noise but this was another level. Something to be aware of if you are a light sleeper etc

Loved my tipi room so clean and comfortable. It’s a great area super central there food is great. The pool area so nice. Staff is super nice and friendly. People that stay there also super friendly. Would super come back to stay. 1000% recommended.

Social environment, really clean and lots of activities to do

I liked the pool and the comfortable bed in my private room.

The staff were not overly friendly, especially at the bar/restaurant. They weren't rude, but their service was pretty unenthusiastic.
