Very "efficient" (what you get for the money you pay). Good location, clean, quiet (stayed here at the end of the busy season). Nothing to complain. Interesting approach, to convert a (closed) shopping mall into a hotel.

This hotel is good for a one night stay but not for a long week. Expect the minimum. Elevator and escalator werent working so we had to carry our luggages to 2nd floor. As other reviews it looks as if it use to be a shopping mall or offices. Very abandon look. We just stayed one night in cancun so the price was right, we walked over to the club strip (approx. 3 blocks away). Walking at night to the hotel was abit shady, but in the day its busy with people. Staff were friendly and welcoming. Room was clean.

The lady was very kind, even though it was 2-3 hours before check-in. She gave me the room so I could change, leave my things, and go to the beach. Everything was great and close

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Check/in was great and the attendant was friendly and helpful. Everything was clean and the A/C worked well. However it was difficult to find the entrance which was around the side of the building itself, which is a converted mall. In essence, there is no natural light inside the room and no views to any grounds as such. But there was a good number of lights inside the unit itself.
