Pros:

Very friendly greeting on arrival, great location in PDC , away from the 5th Avenue noise but close enough to be there in a few minutes, parking onsite limited but easy around the hotel. Clean comfortable room and bed, would definitely stay here again. Not top resort grade, but perfectly acceptable and superb value for money.

Cons:

Nothing at all

Great value hotel in Playa Del Carmen
Pros:

This is a great value, comfortable hotel right in the heart of Playa Del Carmen. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the air conditioning worked perfectly.
The hotel is in a nice, safe, quiet area a couple of blocks from the main street. There are several good value local eateries nearby, and the whole area is very relaxed compared to the main street.
The staff are very helpful and friendly, and really went out of their way to make our stay comfortable.
I would recommend this hotel to anybody who likes a good value, clean hotel, with great staff.

Ár-érték ok, személyzet kiváló
Pros:

Minden közel volt, jó választás volt a városközpontban lakni, 10-15perc kényelmes séta a tengerpart.

Cons:

Az első emeleti szobák víznyomása rendkívül gyenge (wc), a földszintieké kiváló.

In centro e low budget
Pros:

Posizione ottima e personale molto gentile.
La stanza era pulita e la piscina carina.

Cons:

Uno dei due letti della camera era molto scomodo, perché evidentemente le molle avevano ceduto e pendeva da un lato.
La doccia era piena di calcare e l'acqua usciva schizzando ovunque.
Mancava totalmente la carta igienica
Gli asciugamani erano puliti ma molto vecchi, e alcuni bucati.
