Everything! I absolutely *loved* this hotel - I was a bit apprehensive about staying in the middle of party-land, but this is an oasis of calm and comfort! I had a room facing the garden at the back and the auxiliary patio doors kept out the noise at night. Lovely touches in the room - drinking glasses upside down with tissue paper to keep the edges clean, shower curtain finished off with blue ribbon and flower insert, excellent wifi... just a superb room and hotel. You have to carry your cases up the stairs (but staff did insist on offering to bring them up for me) Breakfast is simple (then again I do eat a lot, so it's probably fine for everyone else) Clean bedding, comfy bed, excellent shower and fully stocked with toiletries. Superb staff too! (Thank you all for your kindness)

Great place—very central, but importantly, it’s quiet at night while still being close to all the restaurants, bars, clubs, and the amazing Playa del Carmen beach. The pool is clean and well-maintained, with just the right amount of chlorine. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The spa is nice, and the massage therapists are highly trained. I had a deep tissue massage, and it was incredible; my wife had a hot stones massage, which was great as well. It’s a lovely little hideaway amidst all the madness of the strip.

The hotel is cozy and the room with terrace I booked was great. I loved the fact that breakfast was included, fresh fruit and juices were served every morning, with a daily special from Gabriel that was cooking…he is lovely 😀. The room was equipped with shampoo/conditioner/body shower. The location is great, as it is close to the beach and to the main central area. They offer free bikes for rent and beach towels, which is genius. I did not find it particularly noisy, besides the Saturday but if you want to be central you need to consider there will be nightlife as well. Everything is walking distance, you don’t necessarily need a car, although I wanted to visit cenotes , etc. I was by myself so I found it safer to ask the hotel helping me booking transfers, which they did. Taxis are extremely expensive, I therefore suggest you rent a car or use other transportation instead. The girls at the desk were always available 24/7 and extremely helpful. The girl from the night shift was very sweet and welcoming 😀 Claudia which was there daytime has been professional and proactive. I will definitely recommend staying there 😍

Amazing location close to the beach, and to the walking street with bars & restaurants as well as to the supermarket. Super friendly people, from the 24/7 reception to the pool guy. Best value stay in Mexico so far, with a lovely poolside room. Not to many rooms in total, and even a kitchen and water cooler to use. As well as private parking and great wifi .
