Great place to relax. Owners are very friendly. Quiet and reasonably priced. River is 50 feet away and although has current is clean and great for swimming. Rooms have a/c which is nice. Chiltepec is small, there is a grocery store but not many restaurants and this hostel doesn't have a kitchen so plan for that. I'd for sure stay again though. Reasonably clean. Super secure and safe. Quiet.
