Selina Cancun Laguna Hotel Zone

3.0 star property
7.6 out of 10, Good, (488)
"The vibe is great, the staff is nice and we enjoyed the pool. It is walkable distance from the beach and the coco bongo. The room looks great, but the humidity smell was unpleasant. We had to unclog the shower head from limestone. I'm happy the pump of the shampoo bottle was not working. I had to untwist the lid and hopefully took a sniff at it first. The product had probably alien living inside. I almost throw up.If we were staying there for longer, I would have asked for assistance from the...

"This location was a quick last-minute buy due to a delayed flight and missing the ferry to Isla Mujeres. It is conveniently located one block from the ADO bus terminal. I was unable to explore the amenities they listed like co-working spaces and a pool so no comment there but the location was very spacious, nicely decorated and well labelled.

2.0 star property
9.2 out of 10, Wonderful, (163)
"I enjoyed staying there for an extended visit. The activities, weather etc. One thing I noticed on 3 trips to the hostels. While there are no smoking signs all over each hostel, When I visit the roof areas of the rooftop and party hostel there are a lot people smoking right in front of the signs . I also was a bit disappointed this time because they had not found a yoga instructor. In my other visits they had the yoga classes every weekday. There was considerably more noise at night than before...
