Pros:

Κλείσαμε στο private jungle room , από κάτω ακριβώς είχε άλλη επιχείρηση ‘ εστιατόριο ‘
Το οποίο έπαιζε μόνιμος την μουσική στην διαπασόν …
Τα παράθυρα δεν έκλειναν καλά με αποτέλεσμα η μουσική να περνάει μέσα στο δωμάτιο.
Δυστυχώς δεν ήμασταν μόνο εμείς , ήταν και άλλοι που είχανε το ίδιο θέμα .

Decepcionante. Dejado y poco cuidado. Nada que ver con las fotos.
Pros:

El personal era muy amable.y la comida no estaba mala.

Cons:

Estaba viejo. Dejado y poco cuidado. Las fotos no reflejan la realidad porque está mucho peor.
Nuestra habitación además de húmeda funcionaba mal el retrete, se atascaba cada día.

Las colchonetas de la piscina sucias durante días y no se limpiaban, daba asco sentarse.

Es un hotel para jóvenes no muy exigentes.

Totalmente decepcionante.

מהמם שווה תמורה למחיר!
Pros:

מקום מהממם ממש עם גישה לחוף חמוד , עצם העובדה שיש מסעדה ומקום ריזורטי לשבת זה נחמד ממש! ומיטות שיזוף בודדות ללא תשלום כמובן לאורחי המלון שווה!
לגבי המרחק אומנם זה 10 דקות בנסיעה מהמרכז של פלאיה נורטה ואיסלה , אבל זה כלום!!! וזה שווה את השקט מול הים בלילה בתוך חצר ההוסטל (:
בסופו של דבר נסיעה עולה רק 150 פסו ואם באים ל2 לילות זה יוצא מעט ל2 כיוונים ביום. (אני ניסיתי ללון במקום אחר בסנטר והיה גרוע) , לעומת ההוסטל הזה שהוא סטייל ושקט ושירותים ומקלחות לכל דורם.

Cons:

הכל אהבתי.

Definitely worth the money and more !!
Pros:

The place was gorgeous, gave jungle vibes. The rooms were clean. I would only recommend for there to be more group activities but besides from that the money was worth the money!

Mayan Monkey è una soluzione con un ottima qualità-prezzo
Pros:

La posizione è ottima se si vuole essere distanti dal caos del centro e della movida, sicuramente non vicina a tutte le attrazioni dell'isola. L'autobus urbano molto comodo.

Cons:

La cucina è sporca e gli ospiti non sembrano rispettare le regole di suddivisione degli spazi e della conservazione degli alimenti. Nonostante avessimo posizionato in una cassetta i nostri alimenti con tanto di etichetta con nome, ci sono stati rubati degli yogurt. Il piacere di avere un alloggio fronte mare viene alterato dalla costante presenza di musica a volume altissimo.

Mucho ruido y pocas nueces
Pros:

La zona de playa es agradable a la vista, pero aunque digan que no hay sargazo, estaba lleno.
Lo buenl es que hay agua potable disponible fria y caliente.
Hay yoga 8 am que nos gustó y otras actividades interesantes.
Desayuno de pago pero muy bueno.

Cons:

La piscina es pequen̈a y muchas veces estaba sucia. Los preciós estan demasiado inflades, un helado de palito kitsch kat costaba 6 dolares.
El agua del grifo es SALADA, nos dijeron que era asi en toda la isla pero eso es MENTIRA.
Cuandk estas disfrutando tranquilamente de la playa a las 3 de la tarde empieza a pintar un DJ A TODO VOLUMEN que hace miy desagradable la experiència. Cuando no esta el DJ (lunes y martes) comkenza la música a las 11 am y muchas veces a un volumen muy alto.
No hay sombrillas ni cojines para las tumbonas para todos, es ridículo.
La habitacion parece sucia, el suelo sucio con manchas y pelos.
El vàter se tapaba.
En la terraza 1 sola silla cuando la habitacion es de 4.
