I was lucky enough to stay here twice in the past year! Both times, I was charmed. This inn is about a block from the central plaza in Puerto Morelos and 2 blocks from the ocean/ beach. The owner and her daughter are very friendly, welcoming and nice. Erica, the daughter, speaks perfect English--she went to high school in Texas. She also can book you on a fair trade Mayan village tour--not exploiting the Mayans, if you wish. They have a nice selection of cold foods and juices for breakfast, included in the cost. There is a pleasant courtyard, and the exterior is also nice. Both times I stayed in the same room, upstairs. Large room, queen (I think) bed and also a futon sofa that makes into a double bed. Room is painted cheerfully and there is tile in the bathroom and around sink. No AC in that room, and the fan seems wobbly. I didn't think the lack of AC was a problem, but my husband would have preferred it. There were nice breezes off the coast; we kept some windows open. The place feels very safe; Puerto Morelos is very quiet. Paid $45 for the room in high season in Apr.07 for 2 of us. The price was $40 +$15 for an extra person in low season--3 of us. Check-out is 1 pm; and they locked our things up in a room after we checked out, while we went to lunch before leaving the town. I've read that some people have had problems with noise,but that was not our experience. At one point we heard kids singing, but it lasted about 2 minutes.

Yes, this place is a deal. We payed about $65 per night for the studio with a kitchenette. It had a/c, but we never used it - instead just turning on the ceiling fan. The staff was excellent, the shower (like someone else said) was sketchy, but the beds were comfy (firm). The noise level was high - in part due to the night club down the street, but we also happened to be there during a festival, which had bands playing VERY loud music until 2am or so. My suggestion... siesta in the afternoon, like the locals, and then stay up for the party at night when it cools down.
This hotel is super close to the town square, and only a couple blocks from the beach. The pool was great too.

If you are looking for some place fancy - stay in a different town. If you want to hang out with the locals, and really feel like you are in Mexico - then stay here.

“Nice Little Inexpensive Hotel w/ GREAT front desk staff, BUT...........”

This was a good hotel for the price ($50ish per night). So really at that price I didn't expect much from the room. Bed, couch, shower, toilet......the basics are what's provided.

The shower was little sketchy, but then again you're only paying $50.

BE FOREWARNED.................................................
................This quaint little hotels is 2 doors down (on the back side of the hotel)from a local night club! And remember all the buildings are concrete and sound resonates of them. We had a horrible
night's sleep (if that's what you want to call it). Had we known we were that close to the night club we would have opted for something else.

It is a great budget hotel and as long as you're planning on partying
the night away you're okay. Unfortunately for us we chose there to stay the night before we flew home.
