This hotel will be loved or hated depending on your expectations. Overall, in the US I would consider this a high quality 2 star hotel. If you are looking for a Hilton or even Courtyard experience, you will be disappointed. Pros: in our room (207) the AC worked great. The room was perfectly clean and a few of the bath fixtures show recent upgrades. The beds were fine (no box spring) and the staff were polite. Location very close to the beach. The price was very affordable. I think I paid US$50 a night with one day notice in the middle of June. There is a small pool at the front. Cons: the furnishings are very basic. 2 beds, small bedside table, desk with bench for sitting. No where to relax or even sit except the bed. Only 2 towels and no other bath linen. Bathroom is small. The staff I encounter spoke almost no English, but did not get upset at my bad Spanish. No elevator. The hotel has 4 stories. And no one to carry bags for you. There are many room types, some suites with dining table and chairs and a fridge, etc. so, if do not not want the sp**** room I had and you can speak Spanish, I am sure they can accommodate for a higher rate. Perhaps the most serious issue I had was that there was no way to lock the room door from the inside. The door locks automatically as you enter, so a key is needed, but there is no deadbolt or other way to secure the door from the inside. Now, I note that nearby Merida was just named the safest city in all of North America, including Canada and the US, so maybe this is less of an issue So, if I was driving down I95 and pulled over to a no-name motel, I would find this place to be great. It was clean and is being pretty well maintained, overall. And it is 1 block from an ocean beach that is not too crowded. If you have that expectation in mind, it is just fine and probably as good as the many air bnb nearby for the price. But, if you are looking for a Hampton inn or courtyard designed for American tastes, you will likely be disappointed. .
