Pros:

Small boutique hotel that had 2 pools, outdoor seating areas and a dining area that was quite comfortable to relax in. Staff were friendly and breakfast was included with the package.

Cons:

Not that the hotel staff is to blame but I did find noisy because of the forest animals.

Pros:

We arrive at the hotel early in the morning, check in, and are given a nice room immediately, even though it is only 9:30 AM. The room is very large and had two king-sized beds. The bathroom is fine. Breakfast is included and it's tasty.
There's a nice swimming pool, though it's located by the busy Valladolid-Merida highway.
One can also swim in the 'piscina ecologica', natural limestone-bottom pool.
In the evening, one can enjoy dinner at the hotel's Kasta-Kan restaurant, a typical Mayan restaurant, and then have a drink or a beer by the pool.
The service is friendly and attentive.
On the other side of the road there is Ik Kil cenote, and nearby the ruins of Chichen Itza.

Cons:

The evening food at the hotel restaurant is not very good.

Best budget option
Pros:

I paid €26 through this site, breakfast included. For that price I got a decent room, good bed, perfect airco, strong hot shower, a nice pool, friendly staff, good cook who made me a delicious lime soup and poh chuc in the evening (also cheap). For that price! And you’re 5 minutes from the entrance to Chichen, so you can be first at the ticket gate.

Cons:

Yes the place has seen better days and is a bit rundown, but it reminded me of my backpacking days in the ‘80s :)
And honestly, if you don’t need luxury but a good bed, a good shower & airco, good food and a pool, look no further

Pros:

Les chambres sont en fait des "cabanes" individuelles. Nous ne souhaitions pas forcément l'hyper luxe pour une nuit, c'est d'ailleurs je pense l'esprit de cet hôtel "authentique" que je recommande. Le restaurant propose des choses très simples et complètement à notre goût. Petit déj moyen. Je précise que je ne suis pas un baroudeur qui se contente de peu ... Une vraie soirée sympa au bord de la piscine et une nuit très reposante. Idéalement placé pour la cénote (juste de l'autre côté de la route) et chichen itza

Cons:

Le petit déj peu copieux mais peu cher aussi (CQFD)

Un hôtel avec un bon rapport qualité prix pour une étape à Chichen Itza
Pros:

Un bon rapport qualité-prix

Cons:

La proximité de la route principale mais qui peut se régler avec des bouchons d'oreille
