just as i expected from other reviewers, this was a basic, convienent place to stay by the bus station. nothing special, but it did serve our purpose. my family and i (4 adults) stayed there as a "layover" from cozumel to isla holbox. reservation was quick and easy via email. appreciated the "honor" system of them holding your reservation without deposit until the designated arrival time (which you can designate yourself, arriving anytime up to 6pm). we didn't spend much time in our room, so it was okay. bathroom was reasonably clean. try out "don javier" eatery a few blocks away if you go - good, cheap mexican food (sopes, salbutes, empanadas, etc) and huge bottles of fresh squeezed delicious juices - pina colada, was our favorite.

Stayed here again for one night this week, for the second time. Basically this confirmed my previous experience, that this is a tired looking yet clean and comfortable property, offering good value in a convenient downtown location. Once again the hotel responded promptly and clearly to my emails, and provided what they advertise.

I stayed in Alux Cancun with a friend for four nights in February 2008. It was nothing special, but good value for money.
Both the room and the bathroom were clean and nice. The beds were comfortable and the room was quiet. The only minus was that we only had a tiny window, so the room was dark. But if you only need a place to sleep, this is it!
Some of the staff speaks some English, but not all of them.

This review is for the Hotel Alux in Playa del Carmen, not Cancun.

Alux is an excellent budget choice. We were there the week between Christmas and New Years for 7 nights. All the other hotels in town had raised their rates substantially. Alux was $55 per night. Great location, very friendly staff (no English spoken), very clean, comfy bed, cable TV, charming decor including brightly painted walls and mexican tile throughout the room. The overall atmosphere was very fresh and clean. There are no frills, but we were impressed with the value and comfort.

In downtown Cancun, there are many places to stay near the bus station. Hotel Alux is my favorite. Medium-low price ($30. single), clean, friendly service. Somewhat old, but new mattresses and magnetic locks within the last year. TV and AC. The main drawback is the stairs, for this hotel goes up, not out. Location, convenience, price, and service make it my favorite in downtown Cancun.
