NOT SUITABLE FOR LONG STAYS
Pros:

Do not stay here

Cons:

NOT SUITABLE FOR LONG STAYS
Staff are not helpful

Went many days randomly without water or electricity, some days we had none of both. There is no communication when this happens.

Laundry was stolen during my stay

Security cameras don’t function they’re just for show

The wood panel fell down around me, didn’t hear from the condo or the people running yit when I complained.

Bed and bedding including pillow cases, was covered in old bloody

Toaster broke day 2, and I was told it was my responsibility to replace

Not fully staffed at reception, you have to book laundry room access but staff are not always there to let you in on your time

Only a few washing machines and dryers work

Only one treadmill works

Apartment 320 is right next to a chicken farm so you’ll hear roosters throughout the day and night, it’s a myth that they only call at sunrise

Grekot Travel (the people managing the apartment) take no responsibility for any of the issues that occur within the property and are extremely unhelpful.

Modern big stylish apartment with a few problems, still good for the price
Pros:

Really nice stylish modern spacious apartment with kitchen, nice bathroom. The garden and the pool are beautiful.
Comfortable soft pillows.
Two amazing restaurants just around the corner (Chez Cocco was the best for breakfast and dinner, and right next to it EL ALUX RESTAURANTE BAR for a very authentic experience, it was like eating at a Mexican grandmother).

Cons:

It wasn't easy to get into the apartment as we couldn't open the lock box, it was stuck. We got a code which worked but we couldn't get out the key from the lock box at first. The lady at the check in couldn't help us as she has nothing to do with the manager of the apartment, it's a condo hotel and we couldn't reach the manager. It took us 2 hours to get into the apartment.
The floor wasn't really clean.
The bed is very stylish but the round form is very strange and a bit uncomfortable to sleep on (the bedside table leave very small room for two heads), otherwise was it comfortable if you find a right position. No extra blanket.
There were some very basic kitchen equipments but no salt, pepper or oil at least so we didn't really use the kitchen.
The apartment complex is a bit far away from everything and the road is very bad in one way (you can go in the other way with car it's fine) but there are a few small shops and two amazing restaurants just around the corner so it wasn't a problem for us.

Good
Pros:

Relaxing, lots of greenery in the outdoor space.

Cons:

The WiFi didn't work. It's not very good for the elderly, a long hot walk down a, partly, unmade road.

Safe for families and solo travelers
Pros:

The facilities, pool, staff, location, and neighborhood were all exactly what I'd hoped for. I felt very safe as a solo female traveler, both inside and out of the hotel. Some have said it's in the middle of a "slum," to which I say, "You need to get out more." Tulum is a normal town, with working people, and in no way does that equate to slum or danger or anything. Ridiculous. I loved being in a regular neighborhood - it was quiet and there were shops and a cute restaurant just around the corner. One of the shops ran a taco/gringa stand at night, and they were the best tacos I've ever had! Anyway, Ophelia was great, I rented a nice bicycle from the front desk, electricity and water and Internet were all fine, and I'd definitely recommend this place to anyone! If you go, please say hi to the gate dogs - they are the sweetest creatures!

Superb
Pros:

Everything is so pretty and aesthetic

Cons:

The resort was in the middle of the slum, which was quite uncomfortable to get there in the evening and it didn't feel safe. However, the resort was guided and safe inside.

Great pool but don’t expect too much
Pros:

Very nice pool area

Cons:

The rooms were smelly (first room smelled like piss, second like smoke), clear maintenance problems (3/3 treadmills in gym out of service, majority of the washing machines, window in room did not close)

Great place to chill, a little weird getting there
Pros:

Complex is very quiet and modern, rooms very spacious. Pool are was very nice and never busy. You were able to bring your own food and drink poolside. There are free laundry facilities (bring your own detergent) and a free gym.

Cons:

The area is located down dirt roads, through more disadvantaged areas of Tulum. These were well lit and we felt very safe but they were muddy and the first time you walk down these streets you wonder if you are going to the right area. However you're still only 10 mins away from downtown Tulum and close to all food.
Water from shower wasn't very warm also.

Very good
Pros:

A resort like hotel at a reasonable distance both from the beach and the central street with restaurants. It seemed to me that they aim at longer stays

Cons:

I didn't figure out how to have my room cleaned, probably my mistake that I didn't leave the keys in the little box by the door. But as they include the safety box key as well I didn't find it safe. Strangely enough the staff at the reception desk told me it was managed by a different company and they knew nothing of it. I just didn't try hard enough as I was not staying long

No service, dirty rooms, unreliable internet. A very disappointing stay.
Pros:

The pool area is nice

Cons:

The apartment was not clean. It had a strong smell of mold and dampness, and a cockroach was running around the room. We also had no hot water, and the bathroom window was broken, letting in mosquitoes. Although we were moved to another room, our stay there was still uncomfortable.

- There were power cuts, and at one point the water stopped running.

- The Wi-Fi stopped working several times, which was inconvenient.

- There is no cleaning service provided.

- The kitchen is impractical; there is no drying rack for the plates, and keep in mind that you will need to bring your own tea towel or purchase kitchen towels.

- The reception staff is not very helpful. If there is an issue with the room, you need to contact administration through Booking.com.

- Both our first room and the second one we were moved to were on the third floor, which meant we had to carry heavy suitcases up and down the stairs without any assistance from the staff.

Good
Pros:

The studio apartment was beautiful as were the pool and other facilities. It is located in a residential area which does look underdeveloped, however I found the walk to the main street perfectly fine in the day time (didn’t walk at night). It takes around 10-15 mins. They were also very responsive on the booking.com app.

Cons:

There were a few bugs, stains and hairs(!) in the room so it could be cleaner. The drawers were broken in the bathroom and apartment number had fallen off the wall so maintenance also needs to be kept up with. It is very under-equipped with the basics. No cleaning items, no paper towels, lack of toilet paper for a longer stay etc. Had to ask them to come clean my room half way through my stay and provide more toilet paper. Reception staff were quite friendly and did answer questions but I wouldn’t say the tourist information is that great and there aren’t many people around to help - sometimes no one around at all. I experienced the WiFi being down for a day. There is a restaurant but it closes early in the afternoon, so you cannot get dinner and drinks in the evening here. Wouldn’t say this place is for everyone when it comes to service.
