This property is a 2 star standard. Very loud club music at night, if your a light sleeper this is not a good match. We asked for hand towels but could not get any due to shortage.The staff was great and the place is clean.The pictures are not whar they seem.

If you’re a budget traveler looking for cheap accommodations in the heart of Playa del Carmen, this is a good place to stay:
Pros: location, price, spacious rooms, nice courtyard, friendly staff
Cons: shower has no water pressure and doesn’t get hot (this is the biggest complaint I have with the room, the water is literally a trickle at times and will even completely stop after a few min), refrigerator doesn’t get cold (shout out to the employee Angel who let me use a cooler to ice down my cerveza), they charge extra 98 pesos at check in, and I’m not sure why (gringo tax maybe?), it can get loud as you are close to 5th street, music will play all night (not a negative on the hotel, just fyi if that’s something that bothers you), no beach towels in room (they rent them for 100 pesos).
For the price (roughly $35/night) it’s well worth it.

Upon arrival the receptionist was not fluent in English but he was helpful
There was an additional fee of 130 pesos for maintenance , that we paid upon arrival and that was not included nor mentioned in the booking bill.
Otherwise our stay was very good. The location is excellent and close to the beach and touristic attractions

Really cute, simple and clean.
In downtown playa del Carmen, with a private balcony and air conditioning, I did not need much and I was satisfied with the overall hotel.
Beautiful area

The staff is very friendly, and the location is quite convenient and accessible. The only thing we didn't like was that the shower in our room only produced a small amount of water, so it takes a lot more time to shower. Also, we were never able to use the pool because it didn't appear to be cleaned every day. But all in all, it's a passable hotel.
