“Nice hotel with a convenient location”
The 10-night reservation went well with Expedia. We also confirmed by email directly with the hotel and asked for a quiet upper-floor room. We got a quick positive reply. On arrival we took the ADO bus from the airport to the PDC bus terminal. We walked on the 5th Avenue (La Quinta) for about 20 minutes to the hotel because we need to walk after the long flight. The hotel reception guy spoke fluent English and showed us our room in a matter of minutes. The room was better than we expected with very comfortable mattresses. We used the second bed to put our stuffs. We also had a safety-box free of charge without any deposit. We left $1 or $2 everyday for the maid as she was very pleasant , did a great cleaning job and made beautiful birds with the towels and flowers. We had a nice continental breakfast everyday from 7:00 to 10:00. The reception guy was always nice and gave us directions on request. After midnight there is a security guard at the reception.
“très sympa et bien placé”
super séjour dans ce petit hôtel pendant 15 jours début avril. vacances en famille, tout était sympa, les chambres sont propres, bien insonorisées des autres chambres (nous étions au rez-de-chaussées) , le personnel est sympa et dispo, tout proche de la plage et bien situé au tout début de la quinta avenida donc eloigné du bruit. il faut juste savoir qu'il y a un resto en face avec un guitariste que chante mais c'est pas trop fort et ca s'arrete vers 1h du mat donc pas trop dérangeant avec des boules quies pour ceux qui ont le sommeil légé. Pour le petit déj, c'etait suffisant mais peut etre que ce serait sympa de le varier un peu c'est le même ts les jours et d'y rajouter des fruits (à mon avis !). toute petite piscine mais les enfants ont pu s'y baigner, c'est toujours agréable.
“Great Stay at the Hotel Banana”
There's a lot to like about the Hotel Banana for families or couples. My wife and I recently stayed at the Hotel Banana (formerly Fiesta Banana) with our 8-year-old and had an excellent time. The hotel's at the north end of 5th Ave, so very close to the action without all the noise. The Mamitas Beach Club is a 5-minute walk (and you get 50% off rentals with a coupon from the hotel) and a great perk. The hotel's staff - Matteo, Roberto, Sara (hola, Sara!) and everyone else we encountered were friendly and incredibly helpful. Roberto and Matteo were very responsive in pre-stay emails and helped us arrange round-trip taxis from/to the Cancun airport and we booked an interesting trip to the ruins at Coba and a cenote (but the "Mayan Village" part of the tour was so-so) and they made everything easy on us. Our room was comfortable, air conditioning worked well, we had a small balcony and fridge, so we stocked up on milk and cereal from the nearby Mega for quick breakfasts. Very safe, good for families and couples (just know going in that there's no elevator and wi-fi isn't strong on the 3rd floor, if that's important to you) and highly recommended.
“Bad Expedia Experience”
It would be a plus to have front desk staff that had a working grasp of English. This hotel was worth the actual cost of the room, but by the time all referral fees were paid, the cost far exceeded the value.

European-style sunbathing is common on beaches. Playa is a popular jumping-off point for day trips to Xcaret, Xel-Ha, Tulum, and other peninsula attractions, and a passenger ferry makes frequent runs to Cozumel.
