Below expectations
Cozumel is known for its snorkeling and our family enjoyed doing that right at the property. However, there were numerous issues with the rooms we had that were not addressed and resulted in a less than optimal experience.

El Cid is one of the best values in Cozumel
My wife and I moved to El Cid after spending seven days at Iberostar Cozumel. While Iberostar is a great resort, the rooms were terrible and the cost was ridiculous for what we received. El Cid had excellent service and great food. If you do not need a large resort, then El Cid is a tremendous value and you will not regret staying there. The one downer is that their check-in process is slow and inefficient.

Too Many Smokers and Maintence Issues
El Cid presents itself as a non-smoking establishment, yet ashtrays and smokers were abundant. While the restaurant staff was excellent, the front desk, particularly Alexis, displayed condescending and disrespectful behavior. We encountered daily maintenance issues with the toilet, which we ultimately resolved by running the shower. As frequent visitors to Cozumel who have stayed at various condos and resorts, we rank El Cid at the bottom of our list.

Great first week
We are here at El Cid for two weeks through RCI. We are on the 7th floor and have a studio room. We walk to Centro almost daily and back and put on about 10km a day. Great swimming area and snorkeling right in front of resort. Nice views from balcony.

Awful. Incredibly Dissappointed in everything.
What a scam. We booked our stay for our timeshare and the experience from the beginning was awful. We were told this was an all inclusive resort when we booked it (the website says it as well) but once we checked in and asked we were told it wasn't. That only El Cid Cieba members get all inclusive. We brought this up as an issue twice to the front desk/concierge and were told they can't and won't do anything about it. The hotel is more of a let down itself. The hotel you see pictured online is nothing like what you actually get. It's run down, dirty and filled with broken promises. Our first room was ground level with a shower that had a window that opened up into the hall way. Had someone open it from outside our room while I was in the shower. I asked to move rooms and they couldn't get us into another room until the next day with no regard to the concern of safety and comfortability. Finally got moved to another room on the 9th floor to only have the bathroom smell of mildew and sewage. Had to ask for the cleaners to come back. They did a good job but realized after that the ceiling in the bathroom was dripping water from the toilet above us. The ceiling was soft to the touch. They had someone "fix" it but it didn't solve any issues. All in all, the hotel stay was a complete disaster. Pool? Sucked. Beach? Non existent. Food? Below Sub par. Would never stay here again. Let alone any other El Cid de la Cieba affiliates and will actively go out of my way to tell others the same. Spent most of our time and money elsewhere unfortunately. Cozumel is a beautiful island but PLEASE don't bother booking your stay here. For the love of God, just don't. *** UPDATE*** It just keeps getting better, before we checked out we decided to pop our heads up into the ceiling part in which the leak was coming from since our friend is a handyman type guy and knows a thing or two about fixing things. Want to know how they "fixed" the leak? They laid down a towel... The smell that permeated from that open space was FOUL. I can't believe we even continued to stay in that room. What a extreme health hazard. Room # 1933. These generic responses from the google business manager clearly are crap because nothing is being done. I would love for a chance to speak to someone higher up in management but I can't get anyone to return a call or email.
