Very dissatisfied with the process of check in and checking out. Checking in was very slow, only one person at the reception desk and a confusion with the unit that I paid. Also, I got overcharge for the room. Overall, the hotel is nice, clean, beach front, walkable to shopping and restaurants. It was our first time to Tulum and it was fun.

Its like a Hostel but they charge like a 5 stars hotel. There was no water in my shower, the room was dirty, in my room there were no black out or courtains in all the windows of the room , so at 7 am the sun was in my face. They don’t have enough bath towels, we were 3 in the suite and they just put 3 bath towels the first day but the other days the put pool towels instead of bath towels because they didn’t have enough. There were singers at the restaurant and music from 9 am, and my room was just next to the restaurant so the music was inside my room. The only thing that its good with this hotel it is the location.
