False advertisement. The rooms did not have air conditioning. It said no smoking and our neighbors were smoking and smoke went into our room. Beds were awful! The worst thing was that the beds had bed bugs. Found them in the morning of our last night!

The property was central to many things, and restaurants, laundry services, convenience stores were all within a block or so. There was a nearby club so if you are a light sleeper bring earplugs. The hot water takes a long time but that's not an issue if you do cold showers to wake up. Overall good value if you value location over other factors.

No hot water, you can hear outside birds singing all day and night but gets terrible around 4 in the morning waking you up without getting any rest. No hot water, no internet connection as specified on their hotel description, see through curtains so everyone passing by can see inside your room, no amenities, a motel would of been a better choose than here. We asked the hotel staff to help fix the hot water issue and was not fixed, we asked to see if we can have a different room and were ignored. No house keeping, we went for an all day tour and we were hopping to have the room made and at least soap to shower and the hot water fixed but we didn't.

we had black mold on the closet wall and the window in the bathroom was missing the glass so noise was bad but I had ear plugs, and if someone wanted to get into your room it would be easy to use a credit card to open no dead bolt locks, everything you need is close by including beach two blocks away.

Stay away
Put in a room that had no glass in the window, and they hit it behind a curtain. They wouldn’t switch my room, that area is not a safe area at night at all, and the hotel is near one of the loudest clubs that play electronic music till 3 in the morning. STAY AWAY FROM THIS HOTEL Or you will be sorry

This property is very close to 5th avenue and there's a lot of little local restaurants really close that are absolutely fantastic. I would recommend this hotel to most budget travellers BUT with a caveat: there's a night club a half block away that plays obnoxiously loud music that shakes the walls of the hotel until after 3am. If you are in Playa to party, this hotel is for you, if you're there to relax and get any amount of sleep, it might not be your best option.
