The staff was very friendly but the room was very noisy due to a water pump located in their garage. Avoid room 104. Pump makes noise every 22.51 seconds. I timed it after not being able to sleep even with ear plugs. Bed frame and headboard filled with dust.

Great location, close to shops, beach, restaurants. Many taxis available if you want to go out of the city. Loved having Oscar taking care of us at the front desk. Very helpful with recommendations. Only complaint was the beds were too hard.

The hotel is situated in a convenient location, to the beach, shopping, stores, pharmacy etc. However, the hotel is not exactly family recommends since club music nearby was blasting loud, all the way to 3 or later am. The hotel needs an update badly, rusted bathroom fixtures, peeling wall paint and plaster, beat-up room corners and main hotel gate was a disaster, band-aided countlessly. Never figured it out how it works when no one was at desk. Right outside the hotel curb, the sewage smelled due to broken off lid with very dangerously sticking r-bars. Our room on 2nd floor was cursed by the water pump noise that “ couldn't be adjusted or fixed” the water pump cycled 24/7, every 15-30sec for about 8-10sec. The kick from the pump was very annoying, loud and the pump wasn't even on the 2nd floor but in the cellar. We got woken up many many nights from it.

The BEST of this property is the location!! It is in the middle of the besta areas in Playa del Carmen downtown. You can walk a few steps and you will be in the middle of the fun in Playa. The staff is so kind and the installations good and clean. However, you need to be aware about the music and sounds from bars at night

Mistake
Sole Suites is NOT a hotel. It is a building of condos rented out. Because it’s not a hotel none of the amenities one expects from a hotel are available. There is no common area. There is a desk attendant (who, to be honest tried very hard to help) who has no resources. They are there to open the gate and take your payments. If they’re not at the desk—you can’t get in. If you need handicap access, you hope they spot you on the street waiting for them to open the gate to the garage/basement. We were often left standing in the hot street or climbing the steep-no railing stairs in front to yell through the front gate. There are no menus, brochures, activity literature whatsoever. The rooms are huge and modern, but VERY spare in the furnishings. E.g. there are no table lamps, or decor of any type. There are no outside chairs. One loveseat— some stools at the counter. The only light is glaringly bright and from the ceiling. The full kitchen had pots and pans, dishes and cups, very little silverware and No utensils. The air conditioning works well. You have to pay extra for them to clean up your room. Otherwise it does not get cleaned or tidied up. You have to get your own towels and tp if you don’t pay extra for services. They do not supply washcloths. The rooftop pool is small, but adequate. We couldn’t really use the pool though bc there are only 3 lounge chairs, and no umbrella or protection from the sun. At 112° (real feel) in the sun, no umbrella was a problem.

Firstable, this lady did not pay the environmental tax like every guest. She either pay the things that she broke.It is a shame this kind of review.This unit like the 20 suites in the property has towels and equipment for a long stay.

Rooms and space were very large. Staff was great to deal with. Very convenient to restaurants, shops, and the beach. It is in the middle of everything so expect loud music blasting until the early morning hours every day from the nearby clubs. In spite of that we slept well and were comfortable. The only negative thing to say is that the bathrooms do not have air conditioning. The rest of the spaces do but the bathrooms are very very hot.

We really enjoyed our stay. Very large and very comfortable place with the kitchen. But it is very close to fifth Avenue and the music is very loud at night. Ask for a room toward the back it’s much quieter.

The places are large and the staff is accomodating, but the noise from the nightclubs outside makes it unbearable... If you have kids or are looking for a quiet time look elsewhere. TRUST ME! The rooftop pool is such a miss, there's a TON of space and they've managed to put the smallest bathtub excuse of a pool. Inside the apartments are very large, however there is an awful smell of humidity, so much so that the couch and the chairs which are made of fabric have absorbed the smell and regardless how low you set the AC the room will still smell. All of that is fine, but the noise... until 3am you will be listening to 5 sounds simultaneously every single night.

Nice look to the building from the front. Seems a little junky around the front lobby area. I came to the property at 2:30 and was told I had to wait to check in. I asked if the room was available and it wasn't. I was then told it could be available for 500 pesos which is just robbery for a half and hour, however I was just told it wasn't available anyway. I came back at 3:52 and was told it wasn't yet 3 o'clock. At 3:57 I was called to the desk to check in and that took about 10 minutes. This was perhaps the most unusual check-in I have ever experienced. The room is nice and spacious but there's black mold in the bathroom on the ceiling. Only stayed one night so difficult to know the place well

Small property, it was quiet and we felt very safe (gated entry way). The staff was friendly and greeted us each day, always willing to help. Excellent room for 3 people with the bedroom and sleeper sofa in the living room. Nice to have the kitchen with a fridge & coffee pot. Rooftop pool is small, the view is amazing. Excellent location to walk to the beach or 5th avenue.
