It was nice having a pool and a refrigerator. The air conditioner didn't cool our room to the degree we set it. A gym on the next street plays loud music in the morning. Although the staff is pleasant and most speak English, sometimes no one is around and the water is often empty. Even so, I still would stay there again as the place is in a good location at the edge of town, the price is good, and the grounds are really beautiful.

I liked how central it was. Very close to the main strip and lots of shopping and dining options close by. The room had a fridge which worked very well. The pool was nice and the option to refill the free water was a nice touch! Free coffee too.

Stayed here in early October '22. Very nice quiet property. Pool was excellent. We had the standard triple room above the pool and it was perfect for us. There were some good restaurants within walking distance (La Coqueta for tacos, El Cayuco for seafood, Papaya for good 100 peso pizza) as well as a convenience store a minute away and a large grocery. Great cheap bike rentals a few blocks away (corner of Escorpion Sur and Calle Sol Ote.). Easy access to the bike paths going to the beach or to the temple area. Cheap laundromat with beer and food nearby (Bo). Great birdlife and reptiles in the courtyard, green geckos, large iguana. It's an ideal location in Tulum so long as you don't mind riding bikes to the beach. The rooftop bar (Nana) wasn't loud when we were there and they do have great cocktails (a bit spendy but good). Georgina at the front desk was very nice! We'd stay here again!
