Excellent location. Just know therenis no elevator nor help to carry your bags.
Property was not in good condition. Blankets and sheets had a strong unpleasant odor. Overall it was a terrible experience. This rundown property only deserves a one star.
La habitación es básica pero funcional, en proporción al precio está bastante bien tomando en cuenta la ubicación que es excelente y nos tocó en el último piso así que la vista fue buenísima. Este hotel no cuenta con elevador para nosotros eso no fue problema.

Need maintenance , but for 1 or 2 days is reasonable.
water for toilet, shower, sink was very weak and at times did not work. The bathtub water did not work only shower and it only sprinkled. The area was full of drug dealers and at night it was incredibly lpud with them doing karaoke or yelling or turning their stereo full blast. A dog can hear barking non stop throughout the night with nobody to stop the dog from barking.the area is very rusty so becareful where u put ur hands. There are small mites and ants all ober the floor so keep your things off ground. They only give u 2 towels and used shampoo
Not a very good location. The hotel is falling a part , old bathrooms and the hole building needs renovation

Great location
The hotel is old and neglected but the location and view are amazing, the rooftop is permanently closed and the street noise is all night long, but for the price, you get what you paid for.

My experience here was OK. The staff was nice and friendly and the location was great. The building its is outdated. The top sheet on the bed had hair on it. Only 2 out of the 4 pillows had fresh lining. Whoever cleaned my room took my pesos off of the stand. It was only $7.00. The bathroom had footprints in the tub and small bugs everywhere. The AC worked great. And the view and balcony is amazing. The jacuzzi and upper terrace don’t look like it has been used in years. It was blocked off. My stay did come with free lounge chair access on the beach. It was an ok cheap place to stay for a couple days. I honestly would come back. That’s why I didn’t complain about any of the negative things. I got what I paid for. And I’m usually a luxury traveler so my opinion comes with a little bias. This was my first time in playa del Carmen. Like it better than Cancun Cozumel and Tulum. Follow my luxury travel on instagram @driptripjay
