Our take

Hotel Blue Star Cancún is a budget boutique option in the heart of downtown. It's not luxury, but for its price it offers good service, free parking and even a jacuzzi in some rooms. Its location near Mercado 28 is ideal for trying authentic local food. You're far from the beach, but buses take you to the Hotel Zone in 15-20 minutes. For practical travelers who prioritize price and a central location, it delivers very well.
