Small quaint hotel. Needs the pool repaired.
No airport shuttle, i reached out but no response back from them and the phone number given on the site is not correct.
Breakfast that is included is sparse but you can purchase other items.
The rooms do not have a fridge, it would be nice

Good area if you want good food, walking distance to walmart and gas stations but not near beaches, was like a $8-26 uber depending on what time you order it. the walls are also thin and so are the blankets and the free breakfast was just toast and cereal. they do have other options where you have to pay. i’d say not bad and felt pretty safe walking till 10 at night just exploring. they do have a pool but the sun doesn’t really hit it.

if i could rate this hotel zero i would but i will give it one star for nice staff. But as far as the amenities i don't even know where to begin !!! To start off when we got there are bathroom sink was clogged the room had such an overpowering room spray they used on bed it gave me a headache!! Second our t.v. Didn't work when we complained they didn't come out until the third day to tell us the screen was out! They offered us to move to another much smaller room !! Then while there , there was no hot water we had to complain about that after a while it started working and on our last day there was no water at all!! We had to leave to airport with no shower!!! It was so bad we actually got one night in another hotel!!! So disappointed in our stay!!! We love to travel and this was one of our worst stays ever!!!

The room was clean. There was a mini split and a fan, which was nice. I didn't like the shower, but my husband didn't mind it. Breakfast was good and reasonably priced. There are restaurants and shopping within walking distance. The bus is a couple of blocks away, and for 12 pesos, it will take you to the hotel zone and the beach.

We stayed overnight due to a canceled flight. The staff were friendly, and helpful in getting us airport transportation in the morning (at a reasonable rate). The room was euro-style (smaller than American hotels), the pool and bar were nice. There was some road noise, and the smell of a backyard fire from next door, but both subsided by 11pm. It definitely has a local flavor, which we very much enjoyed!

This hotel has unique and unusual rooms. They make really good pizza and salads, with good service. There's a lot of stairs and it takes energy to get around in the neighborhood. It's not a resort experience, but the pool is nice. I'm worried about the tortoise they keep in the lobby.

Everything in Cancun is much more expensive than in the past. This hotel has good rates, but poor cleanliness. When we got into our room we saw hair on the floor. When we left during the day, we asked staff to empty our garbage (they give you one small garbage bin for the whole room and you put your toilet paper in it, too). They didn’t empty our trash. Breakfast is stale cereal, juice, coffee, toast and fruit. We paid extra for chilaquiles which weren’t spicy like they should be. Hair dryer is super hot, I couldn’t use it. Hot water was great, good counter space. You can hear other people in the hotel because there’s glass doors and windows in the hotel room. No fan in the bathroom.

Budget friendly and ok location.

The good: People were friendly and prompt to answer request. The room bed seemed clean and the mini fridge was empty for use. The price was very budget friendly n near a couple of shopping areas, one modern and one for \"artesanias\"

The Bad. The internet password was wrong. The bathroom was not fully clean and there was mold on the walls. The shower head is located at the corner where 2 walls meet with the head only about a foot long, which made showering difficult even for a small skinny person.
Last, the place is very very loud. The large TV on the pool area is so loud I had to ask nightly to turn it down. The walls are kind of thin.

Wonderful and Clean!

We highly recommend the Hotel Blue Star Cancun! Beautiful and very clean with great service as we arrived late in the evening from our flight. Bed and pillows were comfortable and the AC works great. We had a nice wrap around bacony with a city view. The pool is small but adorable...we didn't have time to use it but it looked very clean...fun for kids too. Best to buy more water when you check in as there are only 2 bottles provided in the room. Breakfast was good... your basic continental but you can order off their menu too. FYI there are no elevators so be prepared to possibly walk up several flights of stairs to get to a room with a view of the city. They arranged for a taxi to take us to the ferry to stay in Isla Mujeres for a few days. We go back in a couple days to spend the night to catch an early flight the next morning. Overall very happy with our choice!

The rooms where good, they where all very unique. The roof top deck was amazing. The bad was that the listing for the hotel said there was a restaurant and 2 bars, but there isn't. Also 3 of our 4 rooms never had any hot water, so we all had to take cold shower's :-(
Also there wasn't really anything to do around the hotel.

One night in Cancun

There is no restaurant or either of the two bars advertised on the property. The pool is tiny but clean. Our bed was hard. The toilet seat in our room wouldn't stay open and would spring closed before you could sit down. Our room and two other rooms that our party booked had no hot waterand we were told the night guy forgot to prepare it. Other than that, the rooms were cute and each one unique. The breakfast station had a good variety and they cooked fresh eggs, omlets or a scramble for you.

A pleasant 3 days in Cancun

A very pleasant hotel, with friendly and helpful staff. Spacious and spotless airconditioned rooms, with good WiFi. An excellent breakfast is served and the people at the front desk speak English and are eager to help with any request. The only quibble was that there is no sign at the front of the hotel, so the taxis sometime struggle to find it.

The rooms are a good size and the staff are very welcoming and friendly. However, it is not as advertised, as the two bars (one roof top) were closed and didn't look as if they had been open for weeks or even months. There was also no fridge or safe in our room (B2). All of this meant that relaxing by the pool or spending an evening on the pretty rooftop terrace was impractical. If the bars were open, it would have been a good place for a day or two before/after a flight but there is not much around it either.

I liked the hotel architecture. My room had A/C, courtesy water bottles refilled every day. The room is cozy and sound proof haha I could sleep easily. This hotel has all places within minutes in Cancun downtown.
Book if you’re not staying in Zona Hotelera and want to experience living downtown.
Taxis take you everywhere with 3US$ or 40 MX$.

The only complain I had is the Wi-Fi range and speed. It dropped connectivity most of the time.

Other than that, they have pool inside, are open 25/7 and staff is always there to help you. Select the room rate with breakfast as it is delicious!

I will be staying here again in my future Cancun trip next year.

We were apprehensive about this stay when our taxi rolled up into the neighborhood. Baseless fear. Though there are few stores or restaurant nearby, a younger walker would find plenty.
The staff at the hotel is phenomenal from the owner (Marcelo) to Fernando (who helped us so much), Romeo, and Cesar (the chef who prepared our very nice made to order breakfasts on the veranda) and everyone else.
The pool though smallish was fun including \"La Blow up Flamingo\".
The owner tells us that he plans further improvements including an elevator and all day restaurant, both of which will be significant additions. We recommend this South Beach style hotel for a quieter and catered-to time.

Vale, hay algo que destacar y es que cobran el impuesto ambiental en 90 pesos, tengo entendido que por norma son 33.94 MXN por persona por noche, incluso la información la pueden encontrar en Google buscando \"Enviromental tax Quintana Roo\". Segundo, la habitación estaba puerca, me entregaron el mini refri sucio y parece que a las ventanas solo les dieron una limpiada con agua y ya, se veían las marcas horribles y las fotos salieron mal, el control de la TV aparte de estar rotó no funcionaba. Puntos buenos o a favor es que aparte el jacuzzi y la iluminación azul y el desayuno, fue lo que rescato al hotel, por que incluso la piscina se veía que no tenía mantenimiento por que tenía arena hasta el fondo y estaba acumulada. Recomiendo solo por emergencias este hotel.

Hotel classificado como 4 estrelas é não é!

Normalmente procuramos por hoteis 4 estrelas, pois já tivemos problemas com hotéis 3 estrelas. Este hotel é hotel de bairro, fora do centro turístico de Cancun, local estranho à noite e longe de ser um hotel 4 estrelas, 2 estrelas seria o mais adequado. Não tivemos problemas, quarto limpo, porém barulho no quarto ao lado incomodou. Não valeu o preço que pagamos para dormir uma noite visando pegar o avião pela manhã.
