Nice folks, room very clean , convenience store steps away. , 200 yards ( or so) to the beach. Lots of food options nearby. A/C was awesome.

This hotel was exactly what we were wanting! The location is wonderful, located next to so many different shops and restaurants in very close to the beach. Rooms are basic but clean. The rooms are only $25 a night so the price is awesome if you’re coming here expecting all types of amenities, you will be disappointed. We are used to staying in budget hotels so this is exactly what we were looking for! The breakfast is toast, juice, and coffee, if this is something that is not to your liking, there are plenty of other breakfast restaurants around this hotel. The rooftop pool was awesome. We had the whole thing to ourselves every night. We would definitely stay here again please don’t let all the other negative comments. Stop you from staying here if you’re wanting a budget friendly hotel in a great location than this will be the hotel for you.

Staff was hit or miss. The morning shift front desk was not friendly, however, Gabby the cleaning staff was very kind and greeted me by name every day. Alejandro, the afternoon front desk worker was great and friendly. The mattress was old and very uncomfortable and the bathroom was also very old. The shower leaked and sprayed everywhere when turned on. The noise level from the street echoed through the main corridoro on the first floor. I would not stay here again.

It was a good cost effective place to stay while waiting to transfer to our booked resort. It is in walking distance to accessible beaches, shopping, and entertainment. If you do not want an all inclusive resort, but want an affordable place to stay for a holiday and just need a place to put your head at night, this might be your place. There are no safes to keep valuables in the room and the doors to the rooms are not the most secure.

Avoid BALAM Hotel, Playa Del Carmen at all costs. This place is disgusting, filthy, and dangerous. Cockroaches everywhere, stained sheets and towels, a broken child-sized toilet, and a “pool” that’s just a dirty tub. The photos online are completely misleading. When rain poured through my ceiling at midnight, the staff didn’t care — the guy just took pictures while my belongings got soaked. The replacement room was just as bad, with what looked like blood stains on the sheets. I didn’t sleep a minute and left first thing in the morning. Do yourself a favor: stay FAR away from this hotel. It is gross, unsafe, and a total scam.

Motel like style in the US. Good clean rooms. Not so great clean outdoors furnishings. Good for 1 or 2 nites if you're only want to sleep. Poor breakfeast experience. Some hostels are better. Overwall did what I wanted, 1 nite stay, convinient location, cheap. Cant take coffe mug to room. You get what u pay, dont expect much, but works for some. It did for me. 5 star to cleaning lady and the male staff member front desk. Good stay if you dont mind the above.
