Hotels near Doble Aa Barber shop, Playa del Carmen

I would not recommend this hotel. There was no water supply in the room and electricity supply in the communal area (which means no lift) for our last night of stay. We have to carry our heavy luggage down the stairs at check out. Receptionist promised to refund the money for the last night, but our booking agent said the hotel is not reachable as they never reply to phone calls or emails, so our refund request is still on hold. The hotel committed to proceed with our refund immediately but obviously this is not the case. I am really disappointed with my stay.

This new hotel is in a great location, within walking distance to 5th Street, the beaches, and the local community. A+ for location! There is also a beautiful and expansive supermarket right under the hotel to get whatever culinary needs you require. We were upgraded to a balcony room as Bonvoy Titanium,.The price point of the Aloft was also a value, and it is a good bargain in using Marriott Bonvoy points. Javier that checked us in was lovely and gracious, and all staff were pleasant and professional. Aloft is an unusual hotel--one that wants to be a wanna-be hip W Hotel and also a Fairfield Inn for Gen Z'ers. It didn't do either very well, unfortunately. The staff wanted to do well, and perhaps there are still newly opened growing pains that will be worked out. Housekeeping was promised daily, but on 3 out of the 5 days we had to call Housekeeping after returning from the day;'s activities to service the room (which they did right away when called) but this was a big fail. The purified water dispenser in the nice gym was often empty. And generally the upkeep of the hotel is not or was not a priority. It's nice and new and ”hip looking” but metal surfaces and walls by the pool on the 4th floor are rusting already, and little bits of trash on the hallway carpeting remained for the 5 days which showed they didn't vacuum the common areas as often as should be. Room A/C and common area A./C were great! 4th floor pool has city and sea views in the distance and we could often see Cozumel and the cruise ships anchored there in the far distance on most days. I wanted the stay to be great, but it was good.

This place is nowhere near Paradise! Nightmare is far more like it. Let's start with the room inclusion list: Blackout curtains - YES; Air conditioning - YES; Desk - YES but I had to use the desk for my suitcase as there was nowhere else to put; Private balcony - YES there was a balcony but private? NO! All balconies had full sight of every other balcony left and right; Safe - YES; Refrigerator - NO; Flatscreen TV - YES; Complimentary toiletries - YES I suppose so, if you count two different sample size types of soap and two shower caps; Telephone - NO; Bottled water - NO. I will add to the list - Towels - YES but please see photo of the towel I was provided; Bath Mat - NO; Hand Towel - NO; Cups or Glasses - NO and was told at Reception when checking in that they don't provide either of those or water! However we were advised that we couldn't drink the tap water and told that we could walk a block to buy some water! Breakfast - now this was a doozy! Some sort of cordial water and Americano coffee were included but if you wanted milk you had to pay extra! There were three included options - scrambled eggs (not served with anything else), mixed potatoes and beans or fruit platter. I ordered the fruit platter which was served with a slice of toast, no butter and two tiny pieces of watermelon, two small slices of banana and two tiny pieces of paw paw. See pic which shows the fruit platter served on a dinner plate. They also have the hide to say there is a restaurant on site! More like a third rate cafeteria. The room itself was old and had quite a bit of damage to tiles, walls etc. It was very dark as the lighting was extremely poor. Some of the furniture was broken and the small night light was enclosed in a plastic case that was broken with wires on display! This is probably a place for backpackers who are happy to rough it - not for people who are used to a far better standard. We had been in Mexico for two weeks by the time we arrived at the nightmare, and at every other hotel, there were people to help with suitcases. Not here, just one person on duty for the whole hotel! The only good thing about the place was when we were leaving, there were two women cleaners who offered to help us (two women in their 70s) with carrying our suitcases down two long flights of stairs. We were very grateful and think, and are happy about it, that perhaps the tip we gave them was about a week's wages!

I stayed there 2 nights 21Jan 22 Jan..that s it 2 nights was really nice ..great price .but bottom floor near desk bad idea people talk loud .very early so plan on getting up early ..only draw back but now I know stay up too back.

Amazing Exceptional location, the staff is very pleasant and smiling. The meals are of remarkable quality!

This is the best value in Playa Del Carmen. The best bang for the buck especially if you’re booking on this app. Good food. Steak restaurant is great too. Everything is clean and modern although not the newest hotel. This is our go to hotel. Only complaint is they stopped including the premium tequila (Don Julio) in the all inclusive

The hotel is in the large park of Kaman Beach. There are many luxury hotels around. There are many golf courses. The hotel is a holiday nature and there are many recreational items. Please don't compare with the city business hotel. The balcony has bird droppings and the room has spiders. Normal, because the hotel is covered by the jungle, there are many flora and fauna, the breakfast is good, dinner is better, there are many restaurants and pools, the beach and sea are medium!

Really lovely stay with especially friendly staff in the restaurant. Gorgeous resort with two beaches and nice pools - the food at the hotel restaurant is excellent so we ate there happily every night.
