Illusion Boutique Hotel

The property was terribly rundown. At one time it must have been a cute, boutique hotel however no lift, rooms very dated and shabby, the pool area very sad. it did have AC which was great. Electricity went out twice when i was there. Was reasonably priced and i thought a great deal for central playa, now understand why. I bought the breakfast which was served at another property. Toast and coffee was included, all else was additional. I would not stay at this hotel again.

Suited basic needs, clean room, rooftop pool area was a nice & spacious, excellent location within walking distance to shopping & restaurants, 1/2 block to the beach. There was no elevator & the continental breakfast included only toast & weak coffee.

I only gave this a 4 star because of the location and the front desk staff Gabriela and Housekeeper. The location is perfect for the beach. But there is absolutely nothing else this property has to offer. They said breakfast was included. But their breakfast was a stale toast, coffee, juice and tea. Nothing else, everything was a la carte in a different location. The bed was extremely hard and I am not one to complain. Noise level extremely high, as it is very close to Senior Frog's restaurant and they party until 3am.

I had a nice(ish) big room on the 1st floor with a balcony and a tiny bit of sea view. Unfortunately there were people eating smelly foods, children playing ball games, men smoking and coughing in the common areas and neighbouring balcony, which was really unpleasant. The hotel is centrally located and close to the beach. Very noisy area, expect loud music from nearby bars until past 2am every night. Budget hotel, which has clearly seen more splendours days. Breakfast is on another hotel not far, but small and long wait to get in. We ended up having breakfast at local coffee shops every day. The staff were very friendly though.

We arrive air conditioner need to be recharge, the last night we stayed the room was SUPER hot the air conditioner went out again… very uncomfortable night with no sleep at all…

I had a great time there it was very nice and clean, staff were great and Emanuel at the receptionist was great and very helpful when ever i asked for anything in regards to anything thank you all

Nice greeting. Close to the beach. Free breakfast 10 minute walk away. Wonderful rooftop deck with a small pool. Better rooftop pool with a bar and restaurant next door at The Carmen. Open to anyone that buys food or drink. Most of these places are hit or miss. On my visit house keeping was non existent. If you get a room here make sure it's as far away from 8th as possible.

Property needs upgrades, not as nice as in the pictures. Looks ok, towels were not goid at all, they were very old and with stains

Cats roam freely. You can hear them meowing. we had to book another room as the hot water was shut off for NYE and NYday. Free Breakfast is questionable

NEVER THIS HOTEL!!!
