We spent 5 nights in this hotel cause we wanted to explore the whole Riviera Maya during our 2 weeks stay in Mexico. We were kind of worried for the hotel's low price but this is a great place to stay if you don't want to spend tons of money on all inclusive hotel zone resorts and you actually wanna... More

we paid about 35$ for a double room. the hotel was clean, but not on 'the strip'. but it's right by the ocean. the breackfast was very very basic. i recommend eating somewhere else. two weeks in a row you might not want to have that. since we only slept one night there I can't say much more...

We flew into Cancun and had a transportation to the ferry so we could get to Isla Mujures and when we got to the ferry dock they had closed them becuase of the rain. So our transportation guy brought us to this hotel and just dropped us off with no other choice. It appeared to be a little scetchy but... More

Actually this hotel is in Puerto Juarez, just outside Cancun, about a 30 min walk to the tip of the hotel zone. Staff was very friendly and helpful. I used the hotel as the base for four excursions: Isle Mujeres, Xcaret, Chichen Itza, and Tulum/ Xel-Ha, and had no problems getting back to this hotel in the evening. Was a... More

The hotel as depicted from Orbitz was not so great when we arrived. It's pretty far away from the tourist areas, lots of run down buildings surrounding. The rooms are very small and while we were there the water pressure in the shower was so poor it was nearly impossible to even wash your hair. We bought a package deal... More

I travelled to Cancun with my wife on a shoestring budget so I picked this hotel. I didn't care much about hotel amenities since we were going to be travelling to Isla Mujeres, Tulum and Chichen-Itza. The hotel worked out for us because we had a rental car, but it is far from the hotel zone and it is not... More

A clean, if not plain, hotel that is definitely NOT what it suggests it is. Very, very poor location. Not near a usable beach. Many things in our room did not function including airconditioner, ceiling fan, plumbing. One very friendly staff, but also one very rude morning staff person. More

Keep in mind this is a budget location with few frills but it is a nice place, clean, relatively new, with a friendly staff. For example, when I arrived, which was late due to my flight, the man at the desk could not locate my paid reservation right away. No problem, he checked me in anyway and remedied the situation...

The hotel was extremely clean and was cleaned daily. The staff members were helpful, as was the owner. Very close to the ferry terminal. The hotel is located in Puerto Juarez not Cancun so it is a fair distance from the Hotel Zone/tourist attractions which means a series of buses to get there. Although the buses and ferries are right... More
