basic hotel with good roof terrace
A couple of km north of the main commercial area, hotel had nice roof pool and a simple breakfast. There were a few parking spots. My room was very basic and somewhat dark (window looked on to a corridor). Price was fair for PDC --- plus a good taco place opposite.

Short stay of one night, helpful staff. Simple but sustaining fruit and roll continental breakfast. Distracted in upstairs room by audible conversations from the lobby late in the evening.

This hotel should not be offered as a three star hotel. We left after the second night and booked another hotel that was about 100 times better and it was also rated three stars. This was an awful place - dirty and noisy

The rooms walls and ceiling are covered in black mold the windows don’t lock can’t keep your valuables and documents in the room without the fear of getting stolen and when I asked about the window they said they’ll check on it later and is all good to leave it and also was blood on the sheet covers with some black residue

I didn’t have cold water in my stay and they just told me that they can’t do nothing about it. And they didn’t have any room available to make the change. And they say they cannot make a refund. So, I just have to satay there and taking showers with cold water.

The staff was VERY Friendly!! I feel bad that I can't give 5 stars, but wanted to give people an accurate idea of what you will be getting here.
1st- Hotel IS clean! Staff is friendly & helpful. Room was huge. Overall pleased with that.
BUT- Very limited "amenities". Not even an ice machine. Only 1 chair in our room. Breakfast was white bread & a toaster, butter & a jelly, coffee or water. Getting a blanket and towels was like asking for gold. Never got an extra pillow. Only 1 trash can in the room (in bath)
Overall it was decent place to base our trip from, we only slept there. But it is not a resort that you'd want to lounge around at. Neighborhood was a little sketchy too, although nothing bad ever happened to us or rental car. If you're used to staying at a 4 or 5 star resort, you will probably be disappointed. If not, it's not bad for the money!

Our experience staying in this hotel was very complicated. We filtered for a hotel with parking available, but the property has very limited parking space, so we had to park one night on the street. The room was not well kept, with paint fading from the walls and several bathroom issues. The A/C went out on our room one night, which we reported the next morning, but when we got back to the room they had done nothing to fix the issue. The front desk staff did their best, but we ended up 2 out 3 nights without A/C at a beach hotel. Overall, you get what you pay for with this property.

Worst stay ever. A/C was leaking water, a lot of water. They had to come clean the puddle it left every night till they put a bucket. I asked to get moved to a different room and they said were full... there was mold on the walls from the moisture. The rooms in the ad have outside windows but most rooms only have a window into the hallway which is a danger. The ad shows bicycles but they do not have bicycles... very noisy with all the construction around the area and whenever someone closes a door it make a loud noise that everyone can hear... anyone talking in the hallway is going to wake you up so its a disaster if kids are staying there

We were pleasantly surprised when we arrived at Punta Esmeralda! The staff was friendly and helpful, it was IMMACULATELY clean, comfortable and a great spot!
Playa Punta Esmeralda was a 5 minute walk away and a beautiful beach! The little market across the street was great for snacks and drinks. 5th Ave was only a 50 peso taxi ride away. GREAT spot for the price! If you're looking for a wonderful 'boutique' hotel for your stay, this is the one!!

Stay away from here or be frustrated
Canadians stay away, you won't sleep due to 24/7 barking dogs and screaming children. Paper thin walls, windows and door. No shower curtain so bathroom soaked after a shower. Tv and safe did not work for entire two weeks. When I asked to switch rooms I was told I had to checkout at noon the next day and check back in at 3pm, so stupid. Breakfast, if they didn't run out, was white bread with one toaster for everybody, coffee with powdered creamer and warm juice. Whenever there was an issue the useless female at front desk just shrugged her shoulders. On Nov 30 at 2am, I e man beat another with a stick until he was down and out. Not a great area, very residential with not much around. Stay away, it is for Mexicans and international tourists.

I was shocked when we got dropped off here. We are a couple in our early 60s. We were given a room on the ground floor with no lock on the window in a very rough neighborhood. Dogs were barking and people were drinking right on the street in the middle of the day, The window in our room had a sheet to cover it. There was no hot water. At all. The sink faucet was broken. Shower head sprayed left and right but not straight down. We asked for a pillow. They said they had none. We asked for a blanket. We were shown a picture of a broken washing machine and were told we could not get a towel or a blanket. We asked to move and they said there were no other rooms. We left after the first night in fear of our safety and because we couldn’t sleep due to all of the noise. The door in the lobby scrapes across a metal threshold when opened and closed. It was a nightmare! Do NOT stay here. You have been warned!!

Friendly staff, comfortable rooms, and proximity to the beach make this a great stay.
Staff really worked with me to find things I needed or figure out how to navigate the area.
It's far from 5th, but you can rent bikes from a place nearby and get around pretty easily. Hailing a cab may take some time.
The pool and rooftop are nice enough - no umbrellas though, so plan accordingly.
Book a deluxe room if you want to access balcony or beach views.

Interesting stay
I feel there are some mis-communications between this booking site and actual hotel. Example would be that Hotels.com said we would be booking Deluxe room with two Queen beds and hotel doesn’t even offer that option. Although the hotel was quick to accommodate us with two beds it made for an awkward exchange at check in and will rate higher due to that!
