You get what you pay for! It’s located on awesome spot, if you’re trying to be a local in Cancun, and live it up on the strip! However the AC was extremely loud, so it had to be turned off in order for us to be able to sleep. You get what you pay for, it’s like a hostal. Also pre paid for breakfast while checking out through Expedia, when I arrived, they said I did not.

Don't stay here! It's basically a hostel even if you get the private room and bath. We were in the room for less than 5 mins and noticed 10+ mosquitoes everywhere. The sheets had stains on them. The room also had a moldy smell. We left imm immediately and didn't stay the night we came back the next day to speak to the manager who agreed to give us a partial refund of half of the $300 that we spent however, later we found out that we only got a $67 refund, which is not what she agreed upon. Just spend a little more and stay somewhere better!

The property is placed in a very cute location around the lagoon. Standard rooms need to be more equipped with basic materials like chairs and chest for storage. The faucets in the bathroom need update some we're rusted andcquet outdated.

It was a pain trying to get ti this place. The address they have brings you somewhere else that’s close, but not to the actual hotel.. which is a pain if you’re walking from the bus stop. Also, the phone number they have doesn’t work and immediately hangs up on you, so there is no real number for you to reach the reception if need be… also, the toilet paper is really thin and located in an awkward position when trying to get it when using the bathroom :/ Also, the wifi wasn’t working which was annoying when wanting to relax and watch a movie. Overall, I would NOT stay here again or recommend anyone else to. To many cons and not enough pros.
