“Too Much Bass Drum for Sleep”

Best Western Cancun Clipper Club

Jul 8, 2008

Before traveling to Cancun, I read other reviews on this hotel with a bit of skecpticism; however, after having been there, my advice is "Believe It." We had three rooms, three baths, and a kitchenette. The AC was too cold in one room (controls didn't work) and not cold enough in another room. One shower had only cold water. Only one out of four burners worked on the stove.
The last couple of days we were there, the water was sporadically on and off. We lost hot water our last morning, while preparing to leave on the plane.
My worst experience by far, however, were the bass-drum sounds and vibrations from a night club that penentrated our walls. We would be blasted out of sleep at different times of the night or early morning, sometimes at 12:00 a.m. or 3:00 a.m. other times at 5:00 a.m. This would last anywhere from an hour to several hours. Once it started, there was no sleeping.
As others have said, grounds were well kept and most staff was helpful, but in spite of this I strongly advise that you find another place to stay.

“enjoyed my experience”

Best Western Cancun Clipper Club

Jul 5, 2008

the price is very economical when compared to other hotels in the area. Obviously the clipper club is a little older and it isn't near as fancy or as appealing when compared to some of the other hotels in the area. It is a condo/apt type hotel. but you have to look at it for what it is. The pool is nice, they have a nice bar at the pool and their restaurant made real mexican food. They have a store on the property and also had a local travel agent as well. You have to try a night cruise it was a blast. We had a nice view of the strip and the lagoon. Like I said it is older. And you don't have luxurious feelings when staying here. So if you are that type you may want to stay away. The one thing I'll say is that I've stayed at a more upscale hotel in cancun and went the all-inclusive rout and I didn't have near as much fun as I had at the clipper club. the location is wonderful. You can easily walk to great restaurants, shopping centers of all types, and the beach. The room also has the feel that you are in a different country. I really enjoyed my experiences at the clipper and would return if I go back to cancun. It is my personal opinion that cancun is a much better experience if you don't go all inclusive staying at an upscale hotel property throughout your entire stay. You've gotta try the mexican taco restaurants as well. they are heavenly....nothing like a real mexican taco and a dos equis. I'll end by saying if you are making your selection based on the luxurious comforts that a hotel room provides...you will be disappointed. If you are about location and getting to experience the real cancun, mexico....then this is a wonderful choice. the only complaint that I have is that the property doesn't have direct beach access. but as I said it is walking distance.

1/2 found this review helpful

The food was good, location great and that is where my positive remarks end. We stayed there for 5 days and had to be moved twice due to non-working ac and an ant infestation. There was mold growing in the bathroom and in the ceiling of the room. After we were given a room with working ac we realized that there was mold in the ac as well. I had a terrible allergic reaction to all of the mold and end up with a respiratory (sp) infection. We were in town for a party that was in the heart of town and the location of this hotel was perfect in terms of the party but in the end I would have rather paid the $8 for the cab instead of the medical co-pay and prescription costs. Adding insult to injury right down the road were several good resorts, RIU, Dreams, Fiesta Americana... that were all inclusive and not priced very bad. After you add the cost of food and drinks to what we paid to stay here we were only a few dollars away from what our friends were paying at those all-inclusive resorts.

“Quiet Hotel...In the Middle of the Action...Bed Bugs INCLUDED!”

The location of this hotel is great! Its quiet peaceful. It has a very nice pool and the rooms are ok. Please beware the sofa beds aren't what we consider a sofa bed (the fold out type)...they are a matress on raised cement...not very comfy. My boyfriend and I brought (because of what we read on TripAdvisor) with us an Areo Matress which worked wonders. In our room we has a few creatures the first that we found were red fire ants that came up through the drain in the sink, a pet lizard and when we got home my friend went to the doctor and discovered that they were bitten by bed bugs. Yes Bed Bugs! Thankfully this will be the 1st and last time that I ever come back to this hotel! Consider yourself warned!

Location! Location! Location! For spring breakers is great!! Price is great, not expensive at all. You can walk everywhere from there Cocobongo, TGIFriday, Starbucks, etc... its right around the corner. I suggest you go there if you don't have any money but want to have the spring break Cancun experience. (Also you can get a day pass for like $20 dollars in fiesta Americana) beautiful hotel and it comes with a $15 dollar food or drink rebate.

Best western is horrible. 2nd day there they stole one of our cell phones and perfume. If you're young, you're invisible to the employees at the hotel. (You will get no respect!!). Also if they give you a price in something, confirm it!! Because they will change it like 3 times. Also if possible learn some Spanish because they will take advantage of you!!!
