Across recent reviews, Posada Mariposa Boutique Hotel - 5th Avenue is praised for its central 5th Avenue location, friendly staff, and good value, while common drawbacks include nighttime noise, firm beds, and occasional maintenance quirks like weak showers.
Many guests find rooms clean and charming, though some report humidity smells, inconsistent Wi‑Fi, and water temperature swings. Breakfast is a simple continental option served via the adjacent Italian restaurant, seen as convenient but limited. It suits travelers who want easy access to 5th Avenue more than full-service amenities.

I booked this hotel suite for 5 nights & believe me, I got what I paid for.. the room was big but shower water pressure was horrible, both ceiling fans didn’t work, old TV & the bed was very firm. We also had a stack of mattresses outside our door the whole time. Noise outside of our room from the housekeepers talking loud in the morning. Continental breakfast consisted of just coffee, yogurt, fruit & bread anything else you had to pay extra at the restaurant outside of the hotel. There was no pool or jacuzzi at the hotel but it was on the main strip close to everything which was convenient but got boring quick, so I booked a hotel at another hotel nearby that was all inclusive & adults only so we could at least have a good time & I can have a nice shower. The staff didn’t seem to care, especially Ana. Maintenance tried to fix the shower head to get more pressure & sinks but the fans needed to be replaced. I was more disappointed about the shower pressure & fans to circulate the AC since the AC unit was on the other side of the room. Will not recommend this place.

The hotel was in the middle of 5th ave which is like Main street. You will have loud music until 2 am, but the windows drowned out most of it when they are closed. The rooms were cute, and the hotel had a nice atmosphere. The only down side is that the electricity only works when your key is in the room, which is an awesome idea. However, when you leave food in the fridge and then go out for the day you will come back to rotten food bc the electricity goes off when you take the key with you haha. front desk was kind and helpful, there are no phones in the rooms, but we asked if they could come knock on our door if we weren't out at 4 am, they were kind enough to agree. The final walk through was easy they just check to make sure you didn't damage anything. Beds are old and firm but clean and smelled nice, they had lots of pillows too! The hotel gave us robes and towels for the shower. They also give you blue towels to take out of the hotel and use at the beach in case you forgot your own and don't want to spend $30 USD for 1 towel at the shops. there's no parking, but we were able to find close parking nightly even during the 1st week of August.

The property was in a great location that is centrally located to the main playa del carmen area. restaurants, the beach, various bars. So much to do there also. Only negative for the hotel was there was no pool, but honestly the beach was so close to relax at that it didnt feel like a negative. I would definitely stay heere again for the price, location and cleanliness and staff.

Hotel front desk immediately made you feel welcome and explained everything well. Italian restaurant on ground floor provided a very good free continental breakfast. Coffee, juice, fruit/muesli bowl and toast jam. There is a fair amount of noise that comes into the room from the restaurant up until midnight, so take ear plugs and you won’t notice it.

Loved staying here! Right on 5th Avenue in the heart of Playa. Not on the beach but there are lots of places to get to the beach in minutes. The room was spotless and lovely. Bed was so comfortable. Sheets and comforter were the softest I’ve ever felt! We could hear a little of the street noise in the late evening but it shuts down and the hotel itself was very quiet. Front desk staff lovely and helpful. Thanks especially to Maria! Breakfast continental was included at the Italian restaurant on the corner which was good and convenient. Great if you want a quiet oasis after a day of fun in Playa!

A secret little oasis of peace and quiet on the main drag, where in some parts the thumping music from the clubs can keep you awake. Not here. Always perfectly quiet. Always spotlessly clean, friendly staff, reasonably priced.

Very reasonably priced. Very clean room and comfortable bed. I would have appreciated a blanket. What was available was something that resembled curtains instead of an actual blanket. I did encounter two very big cockroaches; one in the lobby and one in the hallway leading to my room. I notified the desk clerk, and when I returned later there was a man spraying insecticide. I appreciated that. It is a tourist area so there is quite a bit of loud music from local bands playing from about 8 PM to 1 AM every day. After that, it becomes very quiet. I just shut the windows and put earplugs in my ears. A free continental breakfast was included. One day, when I had finished my breakfast, the waiter asked me if he could get me anything else. I asked him for a little more coffee, and he said he would have to charge me 600 pesos! That's almost $6.00 U.S. dollars for a little splash of coffee which I found absurd and ridiculous.

For what I paid I absolutely expected much less. The staff was serviced based and very helpful. My room was kept extremely clean. I wasn't expecting the Ritz Carlton at the rate I paid with whom I work with I was just expecting a good place to stay that was clean and convenient. I was impressed by the cleanliness of the property for being an older hotel and the service was excellent. I will be staying there again soon. My office is just down the street and when I come back for a visit I now have a very inexpensive place to stay.

I really enjoyed UNIC awesome property! I only had couple of "dings' about it: When I first arrived I noticed the handle of my room's entrance almost falling off, JULIO the employee who showed me to my room took note about it but maintanence never took care of it for whole stay!! The second "ding" was at check out, I ate some street food and got kinda sick from it (not major) I appproach the manager ANA if I could check out bit later (just 30 minutes tops) and she sarcasticly replyed that based on the circuntances that I was going thru she would be nice enought to allow me 5 (five) minutes after check out . . . 5 (five) minutes, really!!! NO JOKE To top it off, she thought I was not around anymore and made a really bad comment to the trainee: "yeah, make sure these people don't get away with crap!" . . . Awesome training I guess?!? She also mentioned to that new employee hat this was not even her property, that she was covering for somebody else but, her main location was in a different place. Sorry. Property? AWESOME ☆☆☆☆☆ Employees (not all) ? REALLY BAD ☆

Great staff, small hotel with comfortable rooms, great for the price and very good spot near 5th av where everything happens. The only thing I didn't like, but isn't the hotels fault, is the noise, the party and live music from the bars downstairs feels like it was inside the bedroom, that's only till 1:30am, but then at 7am they start the music in the restaurant inside the hotel and the noise wake you up again. Everything else was great to be honest.

This is a good hotel on 5th avenue. If you want to see everything on 5th ave, be prepared to walk! It was not that noisy at night to where I couldn't sleep. We stayed here to do nearby excursions so we basically only slept. The hotel is small but good enough for what we needed it for. The receptionist was VERY helpful, I wish I got her name but she was probably around 40-50 years old, slim with glasses. She helped us with pricing of tours & directions on how to avoid the super expensive taxis they offer nearby. The breakfast was basic but they offer a discount if you get other items. Please note the breakfast is not onsite, its a couple steps from the hotel - not a long walk! Overall it was good for the price we paid for 3 rooms.

Me hospedé en la habitación Mosaico. La recomiendo altamente muy bonita. Se siente moderna limpia y con estilo. Quedé muy satisfecho. Puedes tener descuento para la cena en el restaurante Italiano a un lado y desayuno continental gratis en el mismo lugar.. a media cuadra de la 5a Avenida y cerca de la playa.

Hotel front desk immediately made you feel welcome and explained everything well. Italian restaurant on ground floor provided a very good free continental breakfast. Coffee, juice, fruit/muesli bowl and toast jam. There is a fair amount of noise that comes into the room from the restaurant up until midnight, so take ear plugs and you won’t notice it.

Very reasonably priced. Very clean room and comfortable bed. I would have appreciated a blanket. What was available was something that resembled curtains instead of an actual blanket. I did encounter two very big cockroaches; one in the lobby and one in the hallway leading to my room. I notified the desk clerk, and when I returned later there was a man spraying insecticide. I appreciated that. It is a tourist area so there is quite a bit of loud music from local bands playing from about 8 PM to 1 AM every day. After that, it becomes very quiet. I just shut the windows and put earplugs in my ears. A free continental breakfast was included. One day, when I had finished my breakfast, the waiter asked me if he could get me anything else. I asked him for a little more coffee, and he said he would have to charge me 600 pesos! That's almost $6.00 U.S. dollars for a little splash of coffee which I found absurd and ridiculous.

The room was clean and staff courteous. Very centrally located however noise is an issue. If you want peace and quiet I would not suggest a stay here. The local bars have live music which is very nice but very loud. Room linens also need to be upgraded to include a real blanket. The temps were unusually low for the area when I visited but there was literally only a sheet on the bed. VERY cold at night.
