My stay at Hotel Azul By Encanto had its ups and downs. The location was fantastic, right in the heart of Playa del Carmen, but the room itself left a bit to be desired. While I enjoyed the free water service and friendly staff, the cleanliness issues and hard bed were disappointing.

Hotel Azul by Encanto has a fantastic location and is consistently clean, but there are significant downsides including outdated facilities and issues with towels. I found the room to be spacious with a fridge, but the overall ambiance was less than ideal due to noise and other maintenance problems.

The hotel is older and lacks fancy amenities like a well-maintained pool. I noticed that the towels seemed worn out and there was a shortage, which was inconvenient.

My stay at Hotel Azul was pretty disappointing. Although it has a great location near restaurants and a lovely pool area, the service and room quality were lacking. The staff could’ve been friendlier, and the cleanliness was far from ideal—as I found the bathroom dirty and the room cramped. Overall, it’s an affordable option, but I definitely expected more for my money.

Hotel Azul By Encanto was a great find for my stay in Playa del Carmen. The location is fantastic, right on 5th Avenue, close to everything I needed, though the hotel itself isn't luxury by any means. I appreciated the clean room and friendly service, but some aspects felt a bit dated.
