Perfect location! Easily accessible and trustworthy. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Only cold water in the shower, but that's perfect for the hot weather. I would come back here :)

Location is great, if you like it loud no problem for me I can sleep through anything. The staff was pretty good one block from the beach.

Great location. AC in room is awesome. Nice receptionists.
Room is gross. Sheets and towels have stains. Terrible shower head and pressure in shower. Dripping from rain.
This property is right on 5th avenue. Entrance is on 2nd st North, pretty close to 5th Avenue. Balcony faces 5th avenue and is pretty loud late into the night. If sound bothers you, you should reconsider. wifi is pretty good speed. Room is small but comfortable for 2. AC worked well, staff is friendly. Easy to get in and get out. Nothing fancy about this place but budget friendly and all the dining options available to you on 5th Ave.

We booked a family suite as it was 2 adults and one child as Expedia says 16 years old is still a child. When we came to book in the female told us she was not a child and it’s only a room for 2 people. I don’t know if it is a screw up with Expedia or them but it was not as I was trying to make them lose money, I paid for the extra person and pictures on the site showed 2 beds.She was very rude to us kept telling me no. Eventually she rolled her eyes and just handed me the keys. One of us had to sleep on the floor. The male at reception was very nice though. Always greeted us and lots of smiles. The room was great, hot water lots of water pressure and very clean. Great view of 5th ave and only noisy till about 11:45 from nearby bars. I would only book this as 2 people per room to avoid the bad experience checking in because this was actually a lovely place to stay.

Consider this place a "free reign" place to stay....kinda like an Air BnB or something. No real staff available for help or cleaning but it's steps from the beach, the action on 5th and the city of Playa del Carmen.
Keep aware of your surroundings because there's no extra security but it's fine if you keep your wits about you.
My fault I did not check for an elevator and my and i are 69 and 70 years old and could not do the steps. We stayed one night and moved to another hotel. Room was clean, but small.
I travel to playa del Carmen every year and this was the worst experience I’ve ever had. This property needs BIG remodeling, nothing is being maintained in good condition. Don’t believe any of the pictures the property posts. The room and stairs are in horrible conditions the bathroom has a terrible smell of sewer.
Old run down. Bed was horrible. Was supposed to be a panoramic view. Only one glass door to street. Loud music every night until 1:30 am. Rooms are directly over bars with loud music. Did have AC and hot water.

Panoramic? Down 5th Avenue maybe... but NO seaview
Panoramic Studio, it was supposed to be, with a partial seaview, but there was no seaview to speak of, unless you count seeing what you suspect is the sea between some leaves of trees in the distance? I'm also not sure why they were called Studios, as there was just a fridge freezer, a bed and a wardrobe/cupboard, but even the bedside tables were ripped out ... so nothing to sit on like a chair or sofa, even on the balcony ...
