Pros:

Very nice facilities and very close to the centre. Mateo from the reception was amazing, helping us in any questions we had. Room goos size, very good value for money with a bonus having raccoons walking around at night.
As other comments, the WiFi signal is very weak in the bedrooms, only working full speed at the reception area. (No inconvenient for us.as we were looking for peace and to explore the island.

Cons:

Too close to centre and a hostel with very loud music every night. Above our bedroom there was a roof restaurant that was dragging tablles and chairs every night too

Pros:

Personale gentile e disponibile, posizione ottima tra il mare e il centro di Holbox.
Le attività che abbiamo svolto con loro, (tour in barca delle 3 isole e il tour in kayak nelle mangrovie) sono state l’apice del nostro pernottamento.

Pros:

L emplacement est idéal proche de la plage et du centre d holbox.
Personnel agréable.

Cons:

Le logement manque de luminosité.
2 serviettes de toilette pour 4 personnes.
Nous sommes arrivés vers 14h 14h15 et avons dû payé 270 pesos pour avoir notre chambre avant 15h.

Alors que la chambre était prête je trouve ça un peu exagéré

EL PEOR HOTEL EN HOLBOX
Pros:

NADA !!!!

Cons:

Queja
1. Reservamos en un hotel y nos llevaron a otro de una calidad pésima ( en una ventana decía clausurado )
2. El que nos recibió nos dijo que fue culpa de Booking y que la página se confundió
3. Le dije que en las fotos no era ni parecido al que nos dieron nosotros reservamos Macondo Holbox y ni siquiera había tele y me dijo un no había teles en ninguno de los hoteles, revise las fotos y efectivamente si había teles en las fotos,no tenía ni cortinas en la habitación mi esposo bajó y logró que dieran otra habitación que tenía tele y cortinas ( pero no tenía jabón para bañarnos ni lavarnos las manos, ni shampoo etc ) y peor al paso de los días no tenías ni agua para bañarnos y menos agua caliente cuando salían unas gotas el inodoro no funcionaba
4. La recepcionista de Macondo Holbox no nos explicó solo nos dijo que nos iban a llevar a una habitación superior en otro hotel de la cadena, el que recibió solo nos dijo este era hotel Macondo Raices que reservamos y punto ! Ah no había una cobija solo una sábana tuvimos que pedir una cobija y a veces había agua en lavamanos además que el que nos recibió en Macondo Raices nos dijo pues pongan su queja en booking
5. La verdad es la primera vez Que tenemos algún problema en esta plataforma una verdadera decepción jamás volveré a reservar en algún Macondo de Holbox

Pros:

Super Lage, sauberes Zimmer

Cons:

Wir haben ein anderes Zimmer bekommen als gebucht (wir hatten ein Studio mit 2 Zimmern und 2 größeren Betten gebucht) - wegen fehlendem warmen Wasser haben wir ein kleines Zimmer mit zwei 140cm Betten bekommen. Als Entschädigung wurden wir zur Fähre gefahren.

Misleading listing, did NOT get the hotel we booked
Cons:

Misleading listing, did NOT get the hotel we booked

We booked and paid for Hotel Macondo through Booking.com based on the photos, location, and description in the listing. Upon arrival at Hotel Macondo, we were informed that we were moved to a completely different hotel instead.

The alternative hotel is called “Hotel Jardin” (according to Google Maps) and is located two blocks further away from the beach. This property is not at all comparable to Hotel Macondo. It is worn down, of much lower standard, and does not match what was advertised or booked.

During our stay, there were multiple occasions with no running water in the room, which is completely unacceptable.

We contacted Hotel Macondo several times during the first days to resolve this issue. The only compensation offered was 50% off a massage at a third hotel, which is irrelevant and inadequate given the situation.

This is a clear case of misleading advertising. You book Hotel Macondo, but end up staying somewhere else, with worse location, worse condition, and no reasonable compensation.

Do not recommend. Do not book this property if you actually expect to stay there.

Pros:

La proximité de la mer et du centre-ville tout en restant à distance suffisante pour éviter les nuisances nocturnes des bars animés le soir.
La terrasse à l’étage.
