Hotel Barracuda

We all called to confirm ahead of time and when we got there they were missing 2 reservations. Gaspar got upset when we asked to be on same floor. Towels, gross. Shower backed. Blasting music every morning at 8am. Cruise ship staff party there. Water out front beautiful!!! No beach.

As above

The location is practical, as the supermarket is just in front of the hotel, so you can also use their parking lot (the hotel doesn't have one) and the dowtown is within a 5 minutes walk. The pool facilities are ok. Most of the the rooms have a nice balcony to the water front, so the general view is pretty nice.

Oh boy, where do I start? The fee was high, even for high season. The general state of the rooms is sloppy -to say the least-. The beds are stiff and it seems they don't change the blankets so often. The bathroom in the room was poorly ventilated and the only window faced a closed duct. Altogether with the humidity and local heat, even taking a shower was pure hell. The TV's are old and low definition. The AC is noisy so you may find dificulties for sleeping. The maintenance is terrible: wall paint is falling apart in some areas and there were workers making repairs, so the staircase was dusty -there is no elevator-. During rainy season (most of the year in Cozumel) the water leaks are visible... oh yeah, I forgot to mention, there as a water leak in my room so the staff had to change us the room after two nights. Some members of the staff are ok, others won't help you a lot. In general, I will not stay at Barracuda again.

Location, location, location

Right where you want to be in Cozumel and even more so if you're a scuba diver. On site scuba company is the best. No Name Bar by the pool out back is legendary. A great hang.

Not much except location. Mattresses are awful. Building is very old. Bathroom tile appears to have been recently improved, but that doesn't reduce the smell of methane coming from the sewer if you don't keep the cover on the drain. No food available unless you go out to the pool bar.
