Positive: Location, staff and the whole structure was very clean. The hotel is perfectly located near the party but without experiencing noise problems. We loved our stay
Negative: The beach is practically inexistent, but this was not a major issue. The hotel offers you several places to rest and enjoy the pools.

Positive: We liked it so much we extended our stay from 4 nights to 11 nights! We had the one double bed option and the apartment was very big with a very well equipped kitchen, fridge, microwave, water dispenser, big living area. A nice bathroom with a big shower area. The bedroom was also big with a very large very comfortable bed. Air conditioning throughout the apartment. It basically has everything you will need to live here! Very well located and very quiet despite being one street away from all the action. A very big thank you to Miriam all the guys in reception and the team there.... check in was very easy and you took care of everything we asked for.... thank you. Regina our cleaner also did an amazing job and the apartment was always very clean, new towels when we asked and a great service. If you want a beach there is a tiny one but 5 minutes in either direction there's 2 lovely massive beaches with powder sand. We found the negative comments about this place totally false and unjustified. For those complaining about the seaweed.... we travelled from Honduras to Belize to Playa Del Carmen and there's seaweed in the whole of Central America.... it's natural and no one's fault! For divers.... Phantom Divers are just round the corner and are excellent and there dive boats are on the beach at the apartments so minimal walking with gear! We will definitely stay here again.
Negative: The negative comments about this place are unjustified.

Positive: As the same hotel is on both sides of the street then you can visit two different pools. In our terrace we had private jacuzzi, nice to have as to get to the pools you have to go down the stairs (depends on which floor you are staying). Hotel does not have their own restaurant but there is one attached to it and visitors have easy access to it through beach. Pretty much everything you need is close enough to walk to and when you have rental then garage is also available (without extra cost)
Negative: The private jacuzzi that was not clean and although you have access to the beach it isn't much of a beach, lots of seaweed and you cannot swim there as there are boats.
Summary: Nice hotel, clean with one or two "buts".
