Just say no
The worst hotel I have stayed at in Cozumel. This property is so old and uncared for that it should just be razed. The rooms are small, my room was dirty, there was no furniture for the balcony. No chairs in the room at all. The bathroom was dirty. The air conditioning did not work. The Wi-Fi is horrendous. It reeked of bug spray, and yet I found what looked like an assassin bug on my pillow. If you’re not familiar, these bugs cause chagas. When I mentioned it to the front desk, they said oh that’s just a cockroach. Like that’s OK. But it wasn’t a cockroach. The only good thing about this hotel is its location. Just say no.

Staff would not change dirty sheets upon arriving to find them dirty. Woman at front desk was nasty to me for asking. Shower had really bad black mold. Toilet seat does not go all the way down. Not worth the price point with how run down everything is and nasty the staff are.

This property continues to go down-hill over the multiple years that I've come to visit the island and stayed here. Every time there were issues with my room whether it's the AC or the bed, they always fixed the issue/moved me, etc.. This time I discovered there was sand inside the bedsheet (obviously from a previous guest) and was told flat out NO, we will not give you clean sheets by the front desk woman. I have stayed in about six of the rooms over the years. Most of the rooms have a horrible very old hard bed that feel like sleeping on wires or the AC is half-dead and loud or the shower is filled with thick mold, or the toilet seat does not go down all the way...just the normal Barracuda stuff. Place needs a new owner and management. Will never return. No hotel staff should ever treat paying customers like this.
