Although the hostel is close the the beach, I find the neighborhood a bit shady, uncomfortable to walk late at night. There's AC that's it's turned on at 11pm and the room gets a bit cold, I was ok with it, but others might not be. There's a lot of noise at night from other guests which makes it hard to sleep early. I also woke up with bedbug bites. The restrooms had a bad smell but they do get clean in the morning. The pool is really small, more like a decoration than an actual pool. The refrigerator looked like it hasn't been cleaned in a while ##### Ed Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2018 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Feb 12, 2018 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort La habitación ( sin ventanas ) tenía aire acondicionado pero no podía regularse, por lo que estaba muy fresco enseguida de prenderlo y no se disponía del control como para apagarlo y prenderlo a voluntad, había que ir a pedir asistencia a recepción cada vez que se deseaba prenderlo o apagarlo. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2018 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Dalinne Jan 6, 2018 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Mina saker blev stulna i det gemensamma rummet där vi sov och personalen var inte alls hjälpsamma i situationen. ##### Dalinne Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2017 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Jan 13, 2018 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2018 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Adriana Nov 3, 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities ##### Adriana Stayed 1 night in Oct 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ane Jun 14, 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Ane Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2017 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Beautiful resort home to Cirque du Soleil!](https://www.expedia.ca/Playa-Del-Carmen-Hotels-Beautiful-Resort-Home-To-Cirque-Du-Soleil.h55332530.Hotel-Information) > > [Palafitos Overwater Bungalows, Catamarán, Cenote, All & More Inclusive -
