    great location
    lack of cleanliness
    check-in confusion

    Location is a dream! So close to 5th Ave.

    We faced significant challenges . There was no reception, made check-in confusing and stressful. The room was not properly cleaned. There was dust everywhere, and we encountered multiple insects.

    check-in issues
    poor cleanliness

    I was almost ready to give a fantastic review, but the lack of proper payment options and the fact that there was only one roll of toilet paper for six nights really did it for me. And let's not forget the beautiful room that smelled bad and had dirty fans. Class act, really.

    noise disturbance

    The room lacked basic comfort and was stark, with just plain white walls and no decorations. A major inconvenience was the total lack of cleaning , leading to unkempt bedding and inadequate bathroom supplies. The space felt cramped, lacking ventilation and adequate light.

    prime location
    noise issues

    The location is unbeatable, just a stone's throw from Fifth Avenue and the beach, making it easy to explore the area on foot.

    The lack of soundproofing was disappointing. I could hear conversations from neighboring rooms and chairs scraping at odd hours, which disrupted my sleep.

    rooftop pool
    noisy environment

    A charming stay with quirks

    The location is unbeatable, right near 5th Avenue and a beautiful park. The rooftop pool gave us a refreshing retreat after long beach days. Cozy little gem!

    We faced challenges with the room's cleanliness and noise from neighbors, which interrupted our sleep. The absence of on-site staff made communication a bit tricky.

    perfect location
    cool ac
    refreshing rooftop pool
    lack of loungers

    Location's wicked prime, just a hop to 5th Ave and nearby Walmart. The AC was solid, kept me cool, and the shower had plenty of hot water to wash off the beach sand. The rooftop pool? Small but refreshing, perfect for a quick dip. Just wish they had more loungers up there. Decent stay.

    fantastic location
    comfortable room
    limited supplies

    The location was fantastic, just a short walk to 5th Avenue and nearby the beach. The rooftop pool offered lovely views and was a refreshing spot to relax after a day out. The room itself was comfortable and had efficient AC.

    Limited kitchen supplies.

    Had a great three-night stay! The cozy studio had excellent AC and strong Wi-Fi. Just wish there were more sun loungers at the rooftop pool, but I'd definitely come back!

    efficient ac

    Just a decent option for a cursory stop in Playa del Carmen with fantastic value. The AC worked great, keeping us cool after long days in the sun. Bring your own toiletries as you won't find many supplies here.

    amazing location
    hot water
    rooftop pool

    Location is a dream! So close to 5th Ave, the beach is just a quick walk! AC worked great after the fix, and having hot water with pressure was clutch after a long day. Rooftop pool was refreshing!

    My mind was blown by the incredible location across from a local park, and the rooftop pool was simply jaw-dropping! the apartment was super spacious, stocked with cookware and coffee pods, and the powerful air conditioning was a game-changer. Being able to easily walk to the ADO, ferry, and the public beach was just AMAZING! Plus, the quick response to fix the a/c issue and the hassle-free room change were impressive. the facilities, like the flat-screen TV, sun loungers, and free wi-fi, added to the overall super positive experience. I was also delighted by the close proximity to a nearby Walmart and Playa del Carmen's famous 5th Avenue. A top-notch stay with only good vibes!
