Hotel Alux is only a block from Ciudad Cancun's bus station, which is both its greatest strength and its greatest weakness. On the plus side, it is very easy for even a disoriented, exhausted, overburdened gringo to find at any hour of day or night, being conspicuous and on a main street. On the minus side, the noise from said... More

This hotel is quiet, comfortable and perfectly located for the bus station. No complaints! If you carry on past Hotel Alux and turn right when you reach Oxxo, there is a nice place to eat up that street on the right. Soup, main dish and a drink for 45pesos, decent sized portions and delicious! More

I stayed at the Hotel Aux on my way back from a summer swimming with the whale sharks in Holbox Mexico. Bottom line, I needed a place near the bus station/airport before I jetted back to the states, my flight was early and to try and get to the airport and do all the bs would be cutting it too... More

Have stayed at this hotel twice now, as it is really handy for Cancun bus station. Staff are friendly, the rooms are clean and comfortable with good air conditioning and wifi. Great price too. Recommended! More

A nice hotel in the centre of the city. Just one block from the bus station. There are good resturants, banks, internet stations and just about anything else you might want all within three blocks. The hotel could use a bit of paint and maintenance but it is clean and safe with deadbolt locks on the doors. It is not... More

We knew what we were getting into - a cheap hotel near the bus station, to crash after a flight and move on the next day. It delivered just that. It was sticky without any fans or aircon in the rooms; for the price that was okay, but on the way out of town we chose to spend more for... More

As I stated in my Mexico city review of the Hotel Riojas...this place is perfect for the non-preferential traveler...someone who just wants a centrally located, clean, safe, comfortable, and inexpensive place to stay - apart from the Hotel Zone - I am a Maya Archaeologist and have stayed here since 1993 and highly recommend it to those with similar attitudes....

Hello, We would like to thank you for taking the time to write a review about the hotel. Although all reviews are welcome and useful, It was encouraging to read yours. As a budget hotel, many times it is difficult to achieve a balance between the service we offer and the rate we charge. Again, We appreciate your input. More

Gross. Seriously the next day, I was covered in little red itchy bumps. My boyfriend didn't have a problem with this, but he is Mexican, and I can't be 100% sure it was bed bugs, but I'm pretty sure, since they appeared after sleeping at the Alux. The windows were like that blind kinda glass that cranks open - well,... More

It is widely known that bed bugs are a serious problem in todays hotel industry, they are transported from property to property by guests. After we read your review, we checked the whole property for these unpleasant visitors. Some of the things that we have done is to check the walls, beds, electric outlets, small holes in the walls, etc.... More

The only good thing I have to say about this place is its location (close to the bus station, downtown, and local transportation stops). From the outside , its kind of charming. But inside,its really old, and the rooms really suck. We only paid about 35 US a night, so I guess I got what I paid for . If... More

Right in the centre of Cancun. No massive infestations of gringo tourists. Just a few who stray off that crazy path of the resorts. It is very loud as it is right downtown. BUT it is a block away from the main bus terminal! Great location in terms of travelling to other destinations. THis stay was only for one night... More
