2/10 Poor

Stay away from here or be frustrated
Canadians stay away, you won't sleep due to 24/7 barking dogs and screaming children. Paper thin walls, windows and door. No shower curtain so bathroom soaked after a shower. Tv and safe did not work for entire two weeks. When I asked to switch rooms I was told I had to checkout at noon the next day and check back in at 3pm, so stupid. Breakfast, if they didn't run out, was white bread with one toaster for everybody, coffee with powdered creamer and warm juice. Whenever there was an issue the useless female at front desk just shrugged her shoulders. On Nov 30 at 2am, I e man beat another with a stick until he was down and out. Not a great area, very residential with not much around. Stay away, it is for Mexicans and international tourists.
No shower curtain
Ripped towel
The one towel you were allowed was ripped up

We didn't like the location of the hotel as there is really nothing around (no restaurants, no café or shopping) and we didn't feel quite safe in the neighborhood. At night it was quite noisy with a lot of dog barking so we and our toddler had poor sleep. Unfortunately they had closed their restaurant without any notice which we were planning on using and the bar and events that they praise on their website don't exist at all. The staff was friendly though! Most terrible customer service we've ever experienced though was through expedia!

The room didn’t look like the pictures I saw in Expedia. The bathroom window was very dirty. Common areas didn’t look clean either. Even though in Expedia it was mentioned that it was located 5 minutes from Quinta Avenida, the front desk employee explained that we had to walk 45 minutes to get to the tourist area of Quinta Avenida. We didn’t feel safe in the hotel location, that is why we didn’t complain or ask to change rooms; I made a reservation in another hotel and left the same day. I wasn’t able to cancel the booking because I had already checked in; but I preferred to spend the following 6 nights in a clean, well lit hotel located in a safe area.

Awful experience, left after 1 night, no refunds..
Please stay away from this property. Walls are paper thin, so as the doors and floors. Another guest was playing very loud music, I complained at 1130pm but nothing happened, they finally stopped at 330AM. The next morning I spoke to the manager and he said that they could not do anything, that even the police came but that their hands were tied... because that "it is how the hotel industry works and guests should just get over it". I left after the first night since he could not assure me that it would not happen again and he said that he would refund me the money. Well, he did not refund anything and after speaking to customer support, he claimed that my stay did not have any issues. In total I spent 3.5 hours on the phone speaking to customer support from hotels.com so they could move me to another hotel during they night but they asked to endure the problems. The next day I spoke to them again and they cannot do anything either, because they hotel has to approve the refund. So beware, it is a scam. Unless you are there to party, do not book. The only positive thing about the place was Florencia from the front desk, she was very polite and helpful with the check in and with suggestions about where to go near the property.

This hotel is located in the nothern part of the city. Contrary to what some have said, this area is safe, even in the evening when it's dark. The LED street lights are so bright, it looks like day time. Police car roam streets on a regular basis. So yes, we did feel safe walking the streets at night. It's a 45 minute walk on fith avenue to "El Centro", but you will find plenty of businesses on the way within 10 to 15 minutes of walking. Two public beaches are within walking distance. On 30th Avenue, you will be able to dine for less than 100 $ (Pesos). This is where locals do their shopping. We enjoyed our 11 night stay at this hotel. Remember, it's a 3 star proprety, bring your own coffee machine. There is a fridge.

The hotel staff was great. The rooms are comfortable. The noise from neighborhood dogs was almost unbearable. One night they fought and barked all night making sleeping impossible. The cafe never was open. The neighborhood has no restaurants. Shopping district is miles away. I would not stay there again.

2/10 Poor

We decided to stay here because the pictures and reviews were good but it was FAR from it. We got to the hotel and front desk was friendly. We payed $25 for remote controls for the room but that was given back at the end of your stay. We got to the room and I couldn’t believe my eyes! The room was dirty! They didn’t bother to clean the closet mirror which had lots of finger prints! The worst part was the restroom!! The restroom mirror had toothpaste splashed and water marks ALL over it! I wish I was exaggerating but I am not. The table in there is plastic, old and stained. The bed was soo soft too. It was so bad we left the next day and stayed at a different hotel. We didn’t care to loose the money we had payed for (1 week) we had to get out! Do not stay here! I don’t know how people stay there and I don’t know why the hotel staff thinks it is ok and in good condition for people to stay.

We were pleasantly surprised when we arrived at Punta Esmeralda! The staff was friendly and helpful, it was IMMACULATELY clean, comfortable and a great spot! Playa Punta Esmeralda was a 5 minute walk away and a beautiful beach! The little market across the street was great for snacks and drinks. 5th Ave was only a 50 peso taxi ride away. GREAT spot for the price! If you're looking for a wonderful 'boutique' hotel for your stay, this is the one!!

6/10 Good

Interesting stay
I feel there are some mis-communications between this booking site and actual hotel. Example would be that Hotels.com said we would be booking Deluxe room with two Queen beds and hotel doesn’t even offer that option. Although the hotel was quick to accommodate us with two beds it made for an awkward exchange at check in and will rate higher due to that!

Friendly staff, comfortable rooms, and proximity to the beach make this a great stay. Staff really worked with me to find things I needed or figure out how to navigate the area. It's far from 5th, but you can rent bikes from a place nearby and get around pretty easily. Hailing a cab may take some time. The pool and rooftop are nice enough - no umbrellas though, so plan accordingly. Book a deluxe room if you want to access balcony or beach views.

If you like wild ogs running loose and barking all night then this is the place for you! I transferred to a different Hotel after two sleepless nights. No one spoke English or it was very minimal. The walls are paper thin and the views were of nothing. No restaurants nearby and people stared at you like they were sizing you up.
