Excellent

Honestly compared to the price this hotel is really good.
I have only 2 things to mention.
1. AC did not work well. So every night I was sweaty when I slept. That is a bummer.
2. The shower room is not dirty but whenever i turned on the water, it was stinky. While I took shower, that smell was gone or maybe my nose got used to it lol
Except for 2 things it was excellent! If I reported it to the reception they might check but also I was tired and lazy after going to beach so I did not care. And again, when i think the price, it is still excellent

Recomendado un lugar cómodo,limpio y en buena locación José y Michell del lobby muy amables gracias por sus atenciones chicos mi esposo y yo estuvimos como 15 días y nos sentimos muy aguato
We stayed at Sofia by Bunik for two nights and found it to be a calm and peaceful spot, despite some occasional noise from construction across the street. The location is perfect, making it easy to explore the area, and the price was very reasonable. The hotel was clean and offered convenient workspaces, which was great for getting some work done while traveling. Although we ended up leaving our belongings there for the entire week to hit the road, the two nights we spent were pleasant. A good option for budget-conscious travelers who need a well-located and practical place to stay.
Bugs in the shower, shortage of towels, only allowed one key for the two of us even tho it's needed to get in and out, full time day staff at the reception desk was extremely rude every day. We travel here a couple times a year and this is the first place I can say I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND!
Muy buen lugar para venir a disfrutar de las diversiones de Playa del Carmen muy limpio y el staff muy amable José siempre atento a todo hace sentir muy cómoda la estancia muy recomentado
El lugar está muy bien y el personal de lobby muy atentos José muchas gracias por tus atenciones y Michell igualmente los dos muy colaboradores el estudio muy bien muy espacioso
People at front desk were amazing. They helped me out with the parking situation and were attentive beyond their means. Would definitely go back for the staff alone.
All the staff are very friendly, the guys at reception always help you

This is our 2nd stay at sofia.. first stay was 10 days and other than a few icky issues with the pool, it was good. THIS stay will be 28 days and it's been terrible from first day. The biggest complaint is that the water pressure in our shower is almost nonexistent. It takes me no less than 20 minutes to shower and if I have any sand from the beach it takes longer. Maintenance finally came but it made little difference. Our first stay the pressure was great. The only hook to hang anything on (seriously only one in the whole room) is just the screw plate. There's no a/c in the halls, we are fairly acclimated.. spend 6 mo a year here and walk everywhere most days but we don't sweat until we get back to hotel and have to wait for elevator. We seem to be in the high traffic zone too. With the exception of the first couple nights, there have been multiple rooms with families on both sides of us ladt 3 nights lots of in and out slamming doors, kids running and yelling/being loud in the halls well after 1am.
There is no way those positive reviews are real. No shot. The pictures are all photo shopped. We’ve stayed in dozens of hotels in playa and this by far is the worst one. The telephone in the room is decorative (seriously). Bugs/gnats all over the kitchen counter. The shower and bathroom sinks are disgusting. The pool bed cushions were disgusting. Just a terrible, terrible, hotel. Please do yourselves a favor and do not believe the positive reviews. Those have to be bought and paid for. TERRIBLE.
The properties not a hotel, it is us more like condo rental. Located a bit far from main beach and main dining area on (th avenue. Although the room I had was very nice, I would not chose to stay there again
