If you are a light sleeper this is not the hotel for you! Ear plugs are provided for a reason! We personally weren't bothered too much. Beds are very comfortable. We will definitely stay again!

If you’re a budget traveler looking for cheap accommodations in the heart of Playa del Carmen, this is a good place to stay: Pros: location, price, spacious rooms, nice courtyard, friendly staff Cons: shower has no water pressure and doesn’t get hot (this is the biggest complaint I have with the room, the water is literally a trickle at times and will even completely stop after a few min), refrigerator doesn’t get cold (shout out to the employee Angel who let me use a cooler to ice down my cerveza), they charge extra 98 pesos at check in, and I’m not sure why (gringo tax maybe?), it can get loud as you are close to 5th street, music will play all night (not a negative on the hotel, just fyi if that’s something that bothers you), no beach towels in room (they rent them for 100 pesos). For the price (roughly $35/night) it’s well worth it.

Will be asking for a refund

It was a terrible experience. The pictures are so misleading As soon as we get inside the room we realized... there is no closet. But that was okay. We had to leave the clothes in the backpack Second hour, there was a roach at the door ... Maybe not the hotel fault since the weather is humid Things started getting scary when we saw a huge mold stain over to the shower We called the manager and he was surprised at "how big the mold was now" so ...it was a known issue. They painted the shower ceiling the next day On the third day water was cut off. There was no water on the sink, toilet or shower. We cut our losses and left one day early. We love Playa and we were trying to save money by staying on this hole...but you get what you pay for

Unfortunately, I can't recommend this property. I think that the owners and staff do what they can to make the place nice, but the rooms are dark with poor construction such as gaps under the doors, around the frames, and lifting tile. I briefly was trapped in my room due to the door latch not properly retracting. However, the biggest issue really was the sound. The hotel is less than a block from Coco Bongo which plays really loud music until 3 AM, there was a recycling truck picking up glass bottles at around 2AM, and even noise from people in the street or courtyard are easily heard as there's no barriers to sound. I hardly slept and really can't imagine anyone without good earplugs would be able to sleep here, either.

I got the hotel earlier then 3:00pm I asked if I can check in early, I was told NO. So I waited till 2:55pm to go and check in and the lady said”I was told to check you in till 3:00pm” witch i replied It’s 5 min till 3pm to check-in while I fill out the paperwork so I can go to my room, so she look at the clock to make sure of time, then she called the manager to come and check me in… This hotel is not worth the money paid, it’s very rundown and VERY NOISY DAY AND NIGHT, at 12:30am the trash was being pick up the truck was so noisy… I’m sorry for the guest that stay there not KNOWING what to expect… NOT EVEN WORTH 1STAR RATING!

Upon arrival the only light in the room didn’t work, had to steal a bulb from elsewhere. Only one receptacle in bedroom (one in bath). Could see the tree in the courtyard with the door close which wasn’t a big deal unless the music or birds or dog outside is loud. Water was scalding hot or cold, no middle ground. Have to ask for our water to be turned on twice. I’ll pay little more next time but excellent location!

The staff is very friendly, and the location is quite convenient and accessible. The only thing we didn't like was that the shower in our room only produced a small amount of water, so it takes a lot more time to shower. Also, we were never able to use the pool because it didn't appear to be cleaned every day. But all in all, it's a passable hotel.
