Where to stay in Playa during our adventure

[daystarmike]

My wife and I are lucky enough to be spending 18 days in the Riviera Maya from May 13th to the 31st. We have only stayed at AI's in the past, but have decided to split the trip into multiple lodging and pueblo destinations. We will be staying in Playa del Carmen from May 17th to the 20th and are looking at three really budget hotel options (so we can save our money for margaritas and tacos), but we are having a difficult time deciding between these three options:
Playa del Carmen Hotel by H&A
Club Yebo
Hotel Real del Mayab
There is only a $5 a night difference in price from highest to lowest (30-35 a night) so that really doesn't matter. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Mike

I agree with the other replies... We have stayed there for the past 4 years in Jan. & Feb..... never a problem and if you do-- usually Helge can fix it for you.

You can also rent a condo, a suite for $ 60 / night and dine on the 5 th
The condo is not very expensive in this season.

Palma Cocos has very reasonable pricing...calle 26 between 5th and 10th. Have stayed there several times.

Would that be Coco Rio or Las Palmas on 26th?

I am guessing that capricho7 meant Coco Rio as it is a hotel. I walked over and checked their rates last night. Rates now are from $79 to $99/night depending on the size room. With no pool I think those rates are a little high for this time of year.
Not sure about Las Palmas (condo) rates though.
