CASA CALENDARIO AZTECA, Playa del Carmen

The hotel is set directly on the main pedestrian thoroughfare, 5th Avenue, placing you at the centre of Playa del Carmen's shopping, dining and nightlife. ADO International Bus Station is 1 km away, the Playa del Carmen Maritime Terminal is a 15-minute walk, and Cozumel International Airport is 35 km distant. The immediate area is packed with restaurants and bars, but the street-facing rooms are directly opposite a nightclub that plays loud music until the early hours. A lift is available for moving between floors.

Room types include double rooms, family rooms, quadruple rooms, studios, and a one-bedroom apartment. All rooms are air-conditioned and have a private bathroom with a shower, a flat-screen TV with cable channels, a wardrobe, and either carpeted or tiled floors. The apartment adds a separate living room, a kitchenette with dining area, and a terrace with city views. Some double rooms and the quadruple room with city views have a balcony or terrace. The economy double room does not have a window. A trouser press, fridge, and microwave are available in some rooms. Rooms are generally small but practical for a short stay focused on exploring the area rather than spending extended time in the room.

The property does not offer its own restaurant or bar, so all meals must be sourced outside. The location on 5th Avenue provides immediate access to a wide range of dining choices within a 2-3 minute walk, including La Fisheria, Los Aguachiles Calle 34, Yaxche, Sushi Club, Ah Carbon, La Vaca Gaucha, and Los del Norte, all within 0.5 km. The in-room kitchenette in the apartment allows for some self-catering, but most rooms rely on the surrounding area for all food and drink.

The hotel offers free Wi-Fi in public areas, though connection can be inconsistent. Reception is available 24 hours for check-in, security and luggage storage, which is practical for late arrivals or exploring after checkout. Additional services include a tour desk, fax/photocopying (free), and a trouser press (free). Security is provided by 24-hour staff, CCTV in common areas and outside, smoke alarms, fire extinguishers, key access and a security alarm. There is no on-site parking, no pets allowed, and smoking is restricted to designated areas.
