7
Multiple mentions of hygiene issues (cafards/cockroaches, stained pillows, torn towels, mixed reports on cleanliness) warrant a below-target score.

7.6
Mixed feedback: some call rooms cozy and clean, while others report shower/pressure/no hot water, AC problems, and rooms not matching photos — moderately below target.
Amenities

Value for Money
7.8
Several guests feel prices are high for the quality (noted 'a bit expensive' and island pricing effect), so value is seen as slightly below expectation.

Complaints about food/restaurant options and breakfast availability/timing; some reservations about on-site dining, lowering this category modestly.
Overall Experience

Despite specific issues, many guests had a fantastic stay because of location, beach/pool and helpful staff; overall sentiment trends very positive.

Ottima soluzione
Pros:

Prezzo corretto, struttura che consiglio.
L unico difetto è forse é la posizione del condizionatore, dritta sul letto.

Hôtel super très bien placé et très confortable
Pros:

Super hôtel sur la mer avec piscine et plage privée. Nous avons séjourné dans la suite présidentielle qui est superbe avec terrasse privée et jacuzzi ( pour lequel il faut demander au personnel de le mettre en service) qui donne l’impression d’avoir une petite villa pour soit dans un hôtel.

Ho lasciato il cuore in questo hotel
Pros:

Posto meraviglioso, da lasciarci il cuore. Spiaggetta privata poco affollata davanti all hotel con anche la piscina. Ristorante con tante opzioni italiane validissime (pizza buona, pasta con frutti di mare buona). Staff molto cortese e stanze essenziali ma belle.

Cons:

Nulla! Tutto perfetto.

Vista dalla camera mozzafiato
Pros:

Posizione strategica e camere direttamente sulla spiaggia. La spiaggia è inclusa nel costo della camera. Camere ampie e sempre pulite, seppur semplici. Ristorante ottimo.

Cons:

Non ho trovato corretto che in ogni consumazione (incluso un semplice caffè da asporto) aggiungessero di default una mancia del 15%.
Considerando che i costi di partenza erano già decisamente alti, l’ho trovato scorretto, soprattutto perchè non dichiarato chiaramente. La mancia deve essere una scelta e non un’imposizione.

Heerlijk strand verblijf in het centrum van Holbox
Pros:

Super dat je zo in het centrum zit en aan het strand, daarnaast heel fijn dat je kamer beneden ook een hangmat, een eigen zitje en lounge gedeelte heeft. Echt lekker!

Cons:

Het is echt op het strand aan de prijs, en je zit wel in het wat drukkere gedeelte van Holbox

Echt een heerlijk hotel op een fantastische plek
Pros:

De locatie met het zwembad en het strand zo direct aan het hotel, met het uitzicht over de azuurblauwe zee. Het hotel ligt net in een beschutte hoek waardoor het heel kleinschalig is terwijl het centrum direct om de hoek is

Cons:

Ik vind de prijzen voor van alles wat aan de hoge kant, geldt voor de omgeving ook. Zal het eiland effect zijn, je hebt geen alternatief.
