    very loud in night due to surrounding clubs. there was only 1 key available, we got robbed (including key) and had to spend the night outside to wait for the cleaning lady so we could open the door again... not understandable that there is not another key available at reception.

    very spacious flat

    Slow check in, rooms were not clean at 3pm. A bit disorganized with the check in No people at the front desk when checked out. Safety box wasn’t working or didn’t have battery, nobody was able to help me out

    Comfortable room, very clean. Location was great, new construction and nice rooftop to go for a drink or pool/jacuzzi

    The hot water was a bit on and off in the shower, and they could clean the rooms more often, but all in all not too bad.

    Always nice people in the reception and they have the best location in Playa del Carmen. You have a walking distance to everything you need. The rooftop was really nice

    ok for one night. it's a very small room on the groundfloor with no view what so ever. thus we spent the evening in the rooftop area watching the ocean and the city which was great. no drinking water provided. good wifi.

    They never cleaned our room, only stayed for two nights and the trash basket was already overflowing, shower water was alternating between hot and cold every 20 seconds or so, the jacuzzi could be hotter.

    Best location in town, rooftop is nice, the bed was really good.

    Close to 5th ave but not on 5th. Friendly staff. Beach nearby. Best Halloween / Day of the Dead parade this year and I've seen plenty. Loud music nearby wasn't that bad in my room.

    The air-conditioning was turned on but didn't work very well, we were quite hot during the night

    Location was perfect, very close to the main strip but in down a more quiet street The rooftop pool/bar was the highlight - so beautiful during sunset (and reasonably priced drinks!)

    I have stayed at this property several times but I think this was My last. Granted I have stayed in different rooms each time as I sometimes book via different sources, the room I stayed at this time was just not being kept up. The walls were dirty and had marks in almost every room. The AC is so loud that it took me a while to fall asleep. The room is facing the clubs and that is additional noise to consider because you do hear the music. Bathrooms were also not deeply cleaned. The shelf for shampoos has rust on it. The water in the master bathroom was not hot at all. There was lipstick stains on one of the pillows.

    The location is great and close to 5th Avenue and the beach. the rooftop pool is wonderful and never too busy plus there is a bar. The room it’s self is spacious.

    AC does not work in this room. This is the second time we have been put in this room and AC doesn't work. I have stayed in about ten other rooms here in this building and AC had always worked but they said it's like that in the whole building. This is my fav place to stay in Playa Del Carmen but avoid room 113 unless you like to sleep in a warm room. Prices for drinks on the rooftop have gone way up and they weren't very good.

    Clean, great location, rooftop pool is amazing

    The bed was too big for the room, therefore limited space,the door lock wasn't working properly.

    Location to the beach and 5th avenue. The view from the pool was exceptional.

    Despite the incident with the cash, I'd stay here again.
    • Leisure trip

    • Stayed 7 nights

    Our safe was jammed open when we arrived and after 3 days of discussing this with the various desk staff and being told that they couldn't get a master key, we returned on the 3rd day to find that someone had stolen cash from a wallet tucked under clothes in a suitcase. suddenly within about an hour of reporting this, they had the key to the safe and could reset the code so that it functioned. After 15 years of travelling to various areas and kinds of accommodations in Mexico, this was our first theft ever. Funny note, they took only a single large denomination bill and left the remaining. And we know what was in the wallet because it was exactly what was needed for the trip to the airport, counted and set aside. Use the safe.

    We like the night life and being downtown during the day and the location was perfect for accessing this, while being easy walking distance to the public beaches. We walked to either the Mega or Walmart 3 times for bottled water and breakfast supplies, no great effort required and we are late 40's with average fitness levels. we had an interior room so the nearby club noise was not an issue. If you're fussy, bring ear plugs. the roof top pool area was great. Very low use by guests so there is lots of seating and we hosted our friends that were staying at another hotel a number of times. great view! basic cash bar service available, bring your own food. The pool and area was clean and maintenance was there every day attending to anything needed. free wifi *note, you'll need to bring the pool towels from your room and might have to ask for them.

    We stayed here 2 times before - 1st in a single very small room, and then in a 1-bedroom suite which was excellent. This time, in the 2-bedroom suite, we had some issues. The microwave had something wrong with the door latch and we only made it work once. The stovetop was hard to figure out - maybe some instructions would be good. We managed that once but not again. And the ice maker wasn't working, and it was several days in till we found the trays to make ice. Also, the TV screens didn't show a picture in 2 of the rooms (main TV and the room with the King bed).

    We love the location and mainly, the pool.

    Only a small window in the room. realised when you book “good deals” through booking, then you don’t get the best room (no views). The rooftop with pool is nice, but the furnitures are not very maintained. Holes in the fabric in the couches. The sun beds are not comfortable. It is very noisy from the night clubs; but that was not an issue for us since we don’t go to bed early and like to go clubbing as well.

    Perfect location - very central. Very nice pool on the rooftop. Modern and clean room. Value for money!
