Room facilities and staff were good. Excellent location. If u are a light sleeper be aware of the barking dogs and roosters next door at a residence. Non stop all night, and all rooms are subject to the noise.

Perhaps we arrived at a bad time. But nothing in our room worked. Then the electricity went out. We stayed one night and were very happy to leave.

Amazing hotel! Clean and so close to the beach. The front desk ladies are the most accommodating & sweet. They held onto to our luggages after we checked out and always were greeting us. Would recommend to my friends and family
Very nice pool as well

The room was clean and everything functioned properly. The nights were disrupted by a barking dog & nonstop rooster at the property next door. Other than the noise, it was a great location, short distance to the town square & the beach.

The hotel is very nice. Close to the town and the beach. Unfortunately, the pool was under renovation the entire time that we were there. It looked like it would be lovely though.
We were very surprised to find out that they only take cash, no credit cards. This meant a trip to the only ATM in town which charged a whopping 174 pesos service fee!
The breakfast in the small restaurant in the lobby was very good and the service was excellent. On Valentine’s Day they were open for a special pasta dinner. It was excellent. I suggest that next time they host an evening dinner, it would be nice to have some Mexican red and white wines available. It would complement the meal and be an opportunity to showcase the great Mexican wines.
There are a few roosters living right outside the back of the hotel, they wake up about 5AM, so if I ever return, I will bring earplugs.

Great location! Within walking distance from the beach and local stores. Hotel has all necessary amenities including hot water and AC. We only staid one night but loved this hotel more than the one in Tulum which didn't have hot water and the power kept cutting off. For a small town, you can't go wrong with Don Gonzalo!

Great location - close to the beach. Good size swimming pool. Helpful staff - Spanish only. Decent room. Good breakfast - not included.
Somewhat noisy - dogs, roosters and vehicles. Wifi not great, especially with my laptop.
Would definitely go back.

Our stay was a few days before Christmas, so it got loud a couple of nights. Also, the neighbors, have roosters and dogs, so it gets noisy early in the morning. Maybe earplugs or extra pillows might help with noise.
Other than that, we were extremely happy with our stay. The hotel and restaurant staff were awesome. The food at the restaurant, best in Celestun!!

The rooms were clean and the pool area, though small and a little smelly was nice. Unfortunately, the power went out at about midnight. It was very hot. This was not the hotel's fault, but what WAS it's fault is that they then chose to run a generator right under our window all night. And the generator only gave anough power to barely flicker the lights. Which meant we were up all night. I could have slept though the heat but not the noise of the generator engine below. We left at 5:00 am. Advice to hotel: don't run generator if it's not strong enough to make a difference to guests, and don't run it under a guests window.

The hotel was very nice, the bed was comfy, and the staff were friendly. However, the neighbors had a rooster and both my wife and I found it incredibly annoying. Luckily, we had ear plugs. Anyway, the rooster is the reason I doubt I will ever return or recommend this hotel to friends and/or acquaintances.
