Guest reviews about The Diving Lodge Downtown

the music from the beach bar was not my style.

non-existent personnel

This hotel more than met our expectations and fully met our needs. In fact, there was nothing to complain about. The beach is wide, sun loungers + umbrellas are provided to hotel guests free of charge. Due to the time of year, there was a lot of seaweed on the beach. It was the only fly in the ointment.

Poorly matched attention to maps.me

rather dark because of the wood, no curtains, so bright as day from sunrise. Very open toilet in the room.

We stayed 3 nights in a standard villa which did not feel comfortable. The Villa is an aging, dark and noisy wooden hut. There is no mosquito net, so at night we were completely bitten by mosquitoes. In addition to mosquitoes, ants and spiders in the room, we had silverfish and droppings (mouse droppings?) In bed (!). They clean it only once every 2 days, a thorough cleaning is needed, there is a lot of dust on the wooden boards, cobwebs ... I didn't even want to unpack things. - Incorrect room description, no sea view at all (only sea view window). Shower and toilet are in the room and do not have a real door, no privacy. - There is no (manned) front desk and the hosts are not there, you are on your own. None of the staff say hello, we could only contact us through the booking if we had any questions. - Sun loungers and pillows on the beach are old, partially dirty and broken. While the other beach clubs on the beach were cleaning and getting ready from 8am, the first staff member did not arrive until 11am. Once they didn’t want to give us sun loungers because they didn’t know that we lived there. A few houses away there is a large construction site, from which construction noise is heard during the day. - The price-quality ratio, unfortunately, is not at all the same. 111 € / night for a room in a village hostel without food and service is simply unjustified. Right on the beach, closer to the center, we found so many better housing options for 50-80 euros that match the price level in Mexico.
