I really like the hotel, it's a bit in need of repair and refresh especially the roof top pool area.
But it wouldn't prevent me from staying there again.
Personal is lovely its located in a good area. Loved it

The place needs to be updated for sure. It’s nice because it’s right around the corner from the strip and walking distance of all the restaurants. We got our room upgraded when we got there but it wasn’t great. As soon as we walked in the room the smell of sewage pipes hits you. The curtains were torn lots of holes. The rain shower head most def needs to be changed. The water spits out everywhere but straight down. The tube in the room did not hold the water so a useless “hot tube” in the room. The bartender Danny was great super friendly very talkative! The whats up app is useless they take forever to answer to a message. This was my second time staying here and I def wouldn’t stay here again.
Let me preface by saying despite all the things that went wrong with the room, the staff at the front desk like Ros and the others were great and friendly and tried to do everything they could to help. The upper management however was lacking. I've never taken the time to write a review on a place but this was a sitcom level debacle - So here's what happened - I entered the beautiful room only to find a condom wrapper (yep, you read that right) on the floor by the bed, they did not have an equivalent room to stay in that night so I was offered a free Americano or Continental breakfast during my stay which I only used once because it was supposed to start at 8 am but in reality the kitchen only opened at 9:30 then there was no hot water in the room so I waited for that to be fixed, then there was no water pressure to fill the jacuzzi tub that is the highlight of the room so I waited for a maintenance guy to fix that and he told me apparently my room was literally the ONLY one with this issue, but at this point the hotel was full so I could not be moved rooms until the 3rd night THEN the safe died with my stuff inside so I waited for someone to open and replace the safe... finally I moved to an equivalent room on the third night (was only there for four nights). When asked for refund I was refused by management saying "we moved you rooms, you got breakfast". Not a great policy considering this was not just one thing. At least the staff were great.

The staff was very kind and helpful. The hot water situation could be better. I had a six day stay: two days the water was cold, two days it was luke warm, and the last two days it was much better, but not hot. The lights were off in the first floor hallway. Even though I reported it on the first night, they were never fixed. I also asked and was granted a room change due to a mold smell in my room.
I was very disapointed. I checked in, looked at the poor condition of the property and the dirty room , including the beds and knew I couldn't stay there. I most certainly couldn't have my girlfriend there. So I just took a shower - ha, no towels , and left and found another hotel. And, thet charged me an extra @ 35 dollars for absolutely nothing since I didn't even stay.
The only problem at the hotel was that even though I paid extra for an upgraded room with a jacuzzi, I couldn't use it because there was no hot water. Otherwise, I was satisfied, and the Be Playa hotel has been close to my heart for many years.
We booked this hotel for the jacuzzi tub and location. Location is ideal however we were there for 4 nights and had no hot water. Our room was nice and clean but the rooftop area around the pool was dirty and rundown. Absolutely a joke that this is advertised as a 4 star property.

Read reviews elsewhere first
Impressive photos, mediocre experience. I recommend looking at the reviews on other sites before staying here. The reviews on Hotels do not adequately represent the current property conditions and noise level. We were unable to sleep for our entire stay due to noise, either from the rooftop bar shaking the walls, or the surrounding hotel bars. The glass walls are beautiful, but do nothing to block noise. Everything is pretty rundown, moth eaten. No mattress cover and bottom sheet didn't cover.
It was amazing. Premium room and services for a fraction of the cost. The rooms were spacious and very clean. The staff very friendly.
Elevator wasn’t working and no parking, but for the location, the price, the decor and everything else, it was still a 10/10 for me

Disappointed
I have stayed here before over past 3 years 3 or 4 times .The maintenance and updates have suffered .First the elevator wasnt working ,and no one to help ,if i didnt expect an elevator,that is ok but had to carry 5 bags up the stairs ,thankfully only 1 flight for me .The silicone around shower floor was old and cracked and water leaked all over floor ,the toilet quit flushing within 30 minutes .The overall condition of the room needed attention .Bed was acceptable although also could use a new mattress soon .Rooftop bar had no food because of elevator (understandable).Service was good for what they have to work with .location is good .Probably wont stay there again .

The rooftop bar was never opened during my stay. The administration kept telling me the bartender should be there but it wasn’t.
