I want start by saying we stay at budget hotels every summer when we visit the Cancun area. With that said, we don't scare easily. This is the WORSE hotel we have ever stayed at.
1. Arrived at 2, and there was no one there until 3 because that's when check in is.
2. The girl is not very helpful at all! She explains NOTHING. Continental breakfast is included, we found out by accident on our last morning. There is a 300 peso deposit if you want to use the safe
3. Staircase is very narrow and difficult to carry your suitcases up/ down
4. They won't clean your room unless you put the sign (we weren't told, so no one cleaned the first day)
5. In room 25: no hot water, no shower curtain,
the fan didn't work and air conditioner took a good hour to cool down
6. Not allowed to take the towels to the beach, we had to buy some. Towels were stiff, stained and smelled like the wood smoke coming from the restaurant because they store them on the roof top next to the exhaust.
Overall, the room was dirty, especially the bathroom. The tile in the shower was full of soap scum. The location is awesome, right in the middle of restaurants, bars and stores. Right next door is Imperial Hotel that looks way better.
