Hotel El Hormiguero

Close to bus station.

Lots of stairs. The lobby is on the second floor. Difficult with luggage. Then our room was on the 3rd floor.

Fast and easy location to the beach. Staff was very nice and made check in and check out a breeze. It is a good basic hotel and met our needs to have the family stay in one room. With the hotel staff at the desk at all times it felt very safe. Room shown in other pictures were exactly what you get. The family also liked the towel art everytime we came back to the room.

Coffee was usually out and once it was gone there was no more. But that wasn't a deal breaker. The toilet had issues but we mentioned to the front staff and that was taken care of.

Great place and location for the price

This is a budget/value property so I don’t expect luxury here for the $ it’s the best deal for travelers on the ADO stopping overnight or if you spend little time in your room and are going to xel-ha etc. The location is right behind the ado station, the water is hot and the a/c is cold. There is complimentary coffee in the mornings and a great little restaurant right next to it. There is also a nice leather cowboy boot store. thw bed configurations are not typical which works for larger groups of people that like to have their own bed my kids prefer twins so this was nice.

The stairs that you walk up immediately to enter the hotel are pretty brutal. We ended up another floor up and another flight of stairs. The shower was leaky which it has been for years the bathroom got so humid water was dripping from our ceiling. Plan for cash for your stay and use the atm in the ADO station or covert your dollars there.
