This hotel worked well for my wife and I. We enjoy walking, and it is a little less than a mile walk to the beach and fifth avenue. The walk seemed safe and it was in a newer part of town. I would not recomend this to someone that does not enjoy walking unless they don't mind taking a taxi or waiting for a scheduled shuttle ride. the hotel was clean, but very humid and nothing dried. The showers are nice. I would not likely stay here again just because I would like to try something different. The breakfast is also decent, and hardly any meat, somedays none which was annoying.

Clean rooms. Location. Nice, clean hotel and had a nice connection with a beach club. The walk to the beach was a bit long.

My husband and I were just at The Holiday Inn Express, Playacar, for a week in early February, 2009. My first impression was that the room was very sterile...marble floors, plain walls, etc. but it was comfortable and clean. The staff could have been friendlier. My husband was upset because the menu for the breakfast buffet advertises both turkey ham and bacon but only twice was there turkey ham and never bacon in the week we stayed. When he asked about it, he got a blank look from staff. The last day, there was only one person, it seemed, cooking, cleaning, clearing tables, etc. Someone must have called in sick and no one seemed to notice from management. The food and coffee ran out, the tables weren't cleared, etc. I really felt sorry for the staff and tried to help clear and wipe tables to help. But the food was good and the price was a great value, so that is really a small issue. Pool area was clean and quiet. The bar was never open while we were there. We did not take the shuttle but walked. We had rented a car but not sure if it was necessary. Would suggest that main desk offer postage stamps and mailing services for their guests to send out postcards. The only advice we got was to find the post office for stamps and mail them there. Seems like a small service to offer with a big convenience factor. Over all, we would stay again and recommend this hotel to those looking for a good bang for the buck, especially with the breakfast buffet (sans meat, even) included.

My family and I really enjoyed our stay at the Holiday Inn Express Playacar, the rooms were clean and comfortable, access to the beach club in Playacar was available most of the time we did take a * taxi a couple of times to the beach club which was a very nice private beach on our first day we even witnessed the going out to sea of some newborn sea turtles, our kids enjoyed this very much. The walking distance from the hotel to 5th street is about 5-6 blocks I would say, not very far. The staff was very welcoming and hepful, I would recommend this hotel, specially for the price.

Sterile, small shallow pool andtoo far from town.

Date of Stay: July, 2008

This hotel could be a great option, for those on a tight budget, because breakfast it's included, there is a pool (very clean). and it has a shuttle service to the fifth ave and beach all included. However, when we arrived we noticed a strong humedity smell at the lobby, but it was stronger once we got to our room, where we even notice the presence of mold in the bathroom. They gave us another room, but the employees did not seem to be surprised about this or concerned. Again, if this problem gets fixed, I would say that this is a great option.

Clean hotel, friendly staff. Room had a musty smell & 2 of the 3 public computers were usually off-line.

"I have traveled substantially in ""Mundo Maya"" six separate times. I have outgrown the northern scene for the last four trips due to overcrowded tourist traps. This hotel is located by the 307 but is very quiet...seriously. The walk down Playacar is quite pleasurable to Quinta Avenida (5th ave). The rooms are just out of a higher class L.A. type hotel. VERY NICE...VERY CLEAN...VERY REASONABLE PRICE VIA TRAVEL WEBSITE. I use Playa as a entry port to southern Yucatan/Belize/Guatamala and now that I have found this Hotel I will NEVER stay at another hotel/motel/hostel/or casita.period."

Clean, spacious rooms. Very good hot breakfast. It was perfect for our needs, but if we wanted access to the beach, there was none. Much nicer than I expected.Easy to find, new, very clean, large rooms, comfortable bed. Excellent hot complementary breakfast. The pool area looked nice, however, we didn't have time to use it.

A big two thumbs up for accomodations at this hotel. I booked trip thru online travel website looking for the cheapest spot in town that I had some history with in the US.-Holiday Inn Express Playa. For 50us a night(7 nights paid up front nothing extra) you get: non-smoking double bed room with marble flooring and nicely tiled bath. Breakfast buffet exceeded expectations-better than US counterparts. There is a internet room with 3 stations that was nearly vacant 24/7. The hotel offers free shuttle service to town that is somewhat limited but only time we paid was for taxi service back to hotel-40 to 50 pesos-no big deal. There is a beautiful beach area that the hotel shuttle will stop at that has to be seen to appreciate-large leaf shaded trees with padded lounge chairs-all free but get there early! The staff is very friendly and helped me booked my return to airport without paying for long distance phone to cancun. This place reminded me of disney world as to how everyhing is sparkling clean. Will I go back.......of course.

Great location, very nice decor, friendly staff. Breakfast was included but not all the things on the menu were there: bacon and ham I have never seen in my 7 days and I would like to have them. Very good stay. Only breakfast could be better and it will be nice to have a store with the post cards, drinks, and little things in the hotel.

My boyfriend and I went for Superbowl weekend. We were not informed by the staff that it was an election weekend in Mexico and so there would be no alcohol for sale, anywhere, until the last day of our stay at 6pm. The other resorts were serving americans booze, but not ours. The "bar" (just a counter by the pool) was never open the whole time. They could have put a sign up at the front desk telling us, so we could have bought booze and put it in our room ahead of time. WE complained, they didn't care at all. The "beach club" was a filthy beach with no amenities, $2 canned beers from a trailer, and not private. The supposed shuttle was never available, either.The room was clean but the maid knocked on our door even when the do not disturb sign was up. The pool was so tiny, the picture must have been a wide angle lens to make it look so big. There is a small airport across the street, so very noisy.

The staff will go out of their way to help guests. The continental breakfast. This is a basic clean hotel minutes from 5th Avenue. My boyfriend and I chose this hotel as our home base during our vacation. We wanted to do excursions throughout the week, so we needed somewhere with decent basic accommodations. This hotel has a small pool in the back, continental breakfast (nothing fancy), and one vending machine. The staff will try to help you as best as they can if you need help. This hotel is a good choice if you plan on renting a car and doing activities all week.

I stayed at this holiday for 3 nights. It's the best holiday inn express i've ever stayed in. The beds were comfortable, the lobby is nice. Everything about this hotel was very nice and it was very very CLEAN! It has a private beach club for use by the guests and a free continental breakfast every morning that is very good. I would recommend it and definately stay here again.

I liked the room, and the ample size of the room. Some staff wasrude, they lied about speaking English. Not hotel to stay in while in Mexico. Go wit the all inclusive. This place is stinky , but new. the breakfast is not good at all. The clerks at the front counter pretend they do not speak English and they do.

	Date of Stay: August, 2008
Comfortable, very clean, good location, shuttle to the beach club, buffet breakfast. No outdoor public space after 8:00 pm. The hotel was over our expectation.

	Date of Stay: June, 2008
Very clean and an excellent breakfast was included. A little bit of a walk to town but not bad. I thought it was an excellent place to stay and definitely worth the money spent on it. The breakfast was above average for an included breakfast. I would be happy to stay in that hotel again.

Free internet & good buffet breakfast. No restaurant & very expensive cab ride to airport.
