Sweet, comfortable, convenient, modest hotel close to the main square. This location makes it a little noisy since there are a lot of bars and restaurants nearby. It’s a great value for the money if you are not looking for luxury. Staff are friendly and helpful. Eggs, toast and fruit for breakfast. We felt very safe.

I have this hotel excellent ratings. I would like to mention to readers it is not the Ritz or Hilton by far, due to the age of the property, however, the courteous staff, location and onsite pool cannot be beat on this strip of Javier Rojo Gomez. It is very true to the old days of Puerto, when there was a dirt road leading into the portside from the highway, that was my first visit to Puerto in the 80's. We booked a return trip before we checked out. The staff is very helpful.

Seen better times…
A classical style estate complex with large, comfortable rooms at a very good location. Once the music from two neighboring restaurants were over, 10:30, not bad, we got a pleasant night. A good breakfast, then the day started with the comfort of being close to the center of town. There were several noncritical inconveniences which could have been avoided if the place were better maintained. A stuck window, broken AC, forever-closed safe box etc., the hotel cries for maintenance.

The clerk named Muncie was consistently rude. The rest of the staff was very good! Our room was quite suitable but they never did bring us promised third towel, mug, and glass although I did pay for 3 people to be there. We believed we were getting breakfast included when we booked the room but it was not included once we got there.

clarify pre-payment from Hotels.com
the staff was unsure whether to charge my card onsite, and so they do. later they credited the double payment. if they understand that the Hotels.com transaction is pre-paid, they could work with greater confidence. this has happened at more than one hotel.

Refugio in Puerto Morales
Recognizing that Puerto Morales is a jam-packed beach party town this hotel is so designed as to give the impression of solitude in spite of it's very small size. This is not a sprawling resort property but a collection of artsy buildings with a tropical garden in the central courtyard.

My husband and I visited Puerto Morelos in March 2018. Hotel El Moro was a wonderful place to stay. All the staff was very friendly and accommodating ( we do speak Spanish but some employees speak English). Our room was lovely. The only downside was the hot water was finicky, at times. I enjoyed walking up the spiral staircase yet others may have issues with the climb. The pool was although small was very relaxing , refreshing and enjoyable. I highly recommend this quaint and charming hotel!
