I have had the pleasure of staying twice at this wonderfully characteristic little hotel. I love the fact that it is so very close to every convenience that you might need, being 5th Ave or the beach. The staff is always been exceptionally kind and helpful and I love that the character of the hotel has such beauty in it. I will happily stay at this hotel anytime that I am in Playa if possible. The first time I stayed here inn2020, there was an issue with no hot water for the entire week but I wasn’t bothered by it as it was so hot outside, the cool water was refreshing. My most recent stay in February 2024 there was hot water all week. The Wi-Fi is a bit spotty but that’s safe to say anywhere. I fully recommend this beautiful little hotel. ☀️🥰

The hotel structure is very nice, the pool is small always full, people all ways drinking alcohol and noise, not recommend for family, The front desk personnel need to receive a customer service training, while I walked in with my family to the front desk, the individual who was behind the desk ignored us when I told him that we have a reservation for the first time, i told him again that we have a reservation theme he responded with attitude and asked my name them he replied his payment and I asked for my total then he replied back and told me your should know bcz you did your reservation via Expedia, next time do it with us directly and show me a flier with phone numbers, When i pay him with dollars he told me that he doesn’t havre $4 dollars change, I replied back and told him to bring the change to my room, Something that never happened, Before I walked in to my room to read me a few rules of the hotel and one of that was not to drink in the pool, and also he told me that we only allowed to have two towels then I asked him since we were 4 family members in the room we required two more , them he made me to sign a weaver for the extra towels, I understand hotel rules and regulations and we always follow it, but this time this person made me filling like a thief at front of my family, Also I asked them to not go inside my room for cleaning and they went through any way even that I asked to their supervisor .

The room was very spacious, clean and the location of the hotel was perfect. The bad unfortunately..the noise was so loud from the clubs, bars, restaurants and ppl around it. So if you are a person who cannot knock out with noise DO NOT BOOK THIS HOTEL! Thankfully for us we can fall asleep with noise so it wasn’t a issue but the noise was very obvious so if you are a light sleeper don’t do it. The pool was cute we did enjoy it and definitely enjoyed that it was walking distance to everything.

There was night club music going on until 3am that you could CLEARLY hear in your room. It was IMPOSSIBLE to get any sleep what so ever. The pool was also out of service. We checked out the next morning, 3 days early. We would never stay there again.

It was what we expected and actually nicer, but you do need to have reasonable expectations. We needed clean, and a bed … both were accomplished and the property has real charm and a lovely pool and is close to everything. There was no air conditioning, our ceiling fan made a loud noise which was not a huge issue as the nearby club dance tunes was loud enough we literally had to talk “loud” to hear each other. We did anticipate this and still felt the price for what we received was a good value.

This is a beatiful hotel with great amenities! The staff are very friendly and helpful. The property was extremely clean and well maintained. Our room was extremely clean and spacious! The beds were comfy, but could use better pillows. The water pressure in the shower was the best I've ever had in my life! The restaurant downstairs was also excellent! We absolutely appreciated the ability to store our luggage safely with the front desk as we arrived well before check-in time, as well as use the amenities such as the bathroom and pool. We were also able to store our luggage again after we checked out, as we had a late flight departure. I would definitely stay here again!

Everyone at the front desk was very courteous. There were several rooms available at my check in so the young man at the front desk took the time to show me a few of the rooms and let me make a choice. I really appreciated that as I had never stayed at the Hacienda. I loved my room and will definitely return. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. I also loved the location of this hotel.

Excellent Everything.
This is very good hotel, it is hidden jam in the crowded hotel area, I recommend to everyone. When you enter the hotel, the structure is beautiful, swimming pool is in the middle. There is roof top. Room is huge, much bigger than the similar hotel we stayed before. Room is super clean, new renovated bathroom. Furniture is old style but good quality. We like it so much. Bed is comfortable. Overall we feel like this is the most valuable stay in my 15 days trip.

Front desk service
Place looks super charming, good location but they only give you one key and you can’t leave the AC on without one. I stayed at the end of June when the temperatures are extremely high and the room was extremely toasty. I asked for a second one because we were 4 people doing different activities. They said they couldn’t do that since the system didn’t allow it? Most places give you 2 keys. After my book I reached out for an invoice for my stay and the customer service at the front desk refused to provide this information. I doubt I would stay again here.

Very nad experience
The quality of the Internet is not acceptable. I suppose I had the worst Internet ever. Impossible to book our bus tickets, or make online check-in for the flights of my family, because I got permanently disconnected or the pages stuck. In the end I had to go to the bus terminal, in order to book our tickets. - Next: Breakfast was supposed to be included in the room rate for 2 adults and one kid. We were supposed to get tickets for the breakfast at check-in, which we did not. So the first morning sitting at breakfast, the waiter asked us for the tickets. So I had to get up again and go to the reception and ask for the tickets. The receptionist - very unfriendly - told me, that we qualified only for 2 breakfasts per day, which I denied, but he insisted and what ever I explained to him - he refused to accept a 3rd breakfast for our party. It was a bad discussion and I finally had enough and left with just 2 tickets. We made an order from the a la carte menu for the 7 year-old, knowing, that we had to pay for it. The moment we received our breakfast, the receptionist showed up, telling me, that he was wrong, and we were supposed to get 3 breakfasts - I didn't want to talk to him anymore, being so rude before, but he did not even want to accept this and wanted to talk. This person was so un-professional! Plus: You must sign for several things (like towels, remote control and more) but I had to ask 5 times to finally get the towels, or twice for the remote control.
