For the money, the rooms were large, beds were king sized, and all clean. The hotel has little amenities but there's a cute coffee shop with a great breakfast on the backside. My teenage sons loved exploring the old hotel

Each employee I encountered was friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. They were patient in answering my questions. I want to commend the women preparing the breakfasts. The food was good, hot and tasty! The restaurant was clean, airy and comfortable.
The rooftop pool was an unexpected treat.

This has been a fantastic hotel that is now past its prime but still very comfortable, inviting and intriguing. The staff are helpful and the morning breakfast buffet is very good.

The room was big and quiet with good AC, we only had one cockroach, and the location is close to the heart of the hotel zone! There is also a beautiful beach right nearby (just walk through the fiesta they’re nice).
Overall very happy with our stay

This hotel was very close to the beach and a lot of tourist attractions which made it really easily accessible. reception was very good for arranging tours for us but they didn't even have an extra blanket when we asked for one. due to heavy poor on the day the roof was leaking in the hallway. the gym was not really in a working condition. Room was spacious and clean but would have preferred carpet floors instead of tile.

This is a by the hour sex hotel, pictures of half naked women to decorate the room. An abandoned shopping mall and the room is a store front with glass walls and a curtain to shield you from the outside viewers. Lady at the check in counter was asking us to fix her bra and coughing all over the front desk staff. Not a hotel. Not even a hostel. I don’t know what this is.

This is a hidden gem. It is right across the Rui, but you don't pay that price. It is not a luxurious hotel, but the price is just about right.

Very well located if you want to be in the middle of everything. The rooms are nice and updated. Don’t let the outside fool you once inside you will be comfortable. The price for a hotel in a location like this is perfect !!
Best for people looking for a place to sleep and then explore Cancun
