Great home away from home
Review Submitted: March 21, 2009
Date of Stay: February 2009
We enjoyed our stay very much. The condo is in a perfect location. I really like this end of 5th Ave (Little Italy), it's a little quieter, but still in the thick of things. The neighbors were great, they really enjoy where they live too. We were a 45 second walk to 5th Ave, and an 8 minute (casual) walk to the beach. The bed was very comfortable, the outside covered deck off of the bedroom was perfect for morning coffee, or afternoon naps in the hammock. The rooftop deck was very private and caught the breeze, it had really comfortable loungers, and when we got too hot we'd stand in the hot tub and pour cold water over our heads! The convenience of wireless internet and free long distance home was awesome. They have Dish network on the TV too. I had two minor issues while there, we had friends that stayed for a few nights and she accidentally locked her safe without a code, and we needed a set of king size sheets for when we pushed the twins together. Both requests were handled very quickly by the condo management staff, for the safe they were there in 10 minutes!! Plenty of towels, everything worked great, there is separate a/c for the bedrooms. Liked the showers, very roomy. Loved having a washer and dryer. Loved being able to watch soccer games from the roof. Would highly recommend staying here. Would not recommend to people with any disabilites though because it is on the 3rd floor. Otherwise, it would be good for couples, families, etc.
Owner's Response: Thank you for your kind comments.We have tried to make condo ALBA as well equipped as possible and with a full menu of amenities.
I feel it is one of the better values in Playa del Carmen.
