The hotel is downtown Cancun, Avda Tulum. The Bus Station is a few blocks away and there are a few nice restaurants near by (Rolandi and La Veranda).
Make sure you know where you are going since locals (incl. taxis) won´t know. You can walk from the bus station, but it´s a bit scaring at night: you´ll have to cross a few very busy roads and there'll be people of all kinds around.
If you haven´t changed your mind by then, you´ll find the hall at the hotel quite comforting, sleek, nice music but only a big seating buddah to welcome you. It took a few minutes for someone to realize we needed to check in. Then we found that the real reception is in the hotel next door (they are the same hotel, but they aren't...) and the little reception desk at the Sens hotel is desserted 90% of the time.
The room was big and nicely decorated in a minimalistic style. However, it seemed as they had finished decorating it a few minutes before we checked in. The bathroom had a funky wall but having a bath was a nightmare. I felt like cleaning the floor since, although there was no hair or anything, a screen of dust was covering everything (as if the builders had just left the room).
Furniture was good looking but low quality, bed was fine, air conditioning was noisy and not very powerful.
In general, you could see this use to be a pretty cheap hotel that someone has taken over and tried to "upmarket it". It didn't work for me, i felt like i wanted to spend as much time as possible outside the hotel.
The restaurant and bed lounge are very chic (specaill the bed lounge, great deco) but expensive (for Mexico) and food was just average. Swimming pool fine, but again, nothing special.
So, probably a very good option if you are on a budget, but i don´t see the point on staying downtown Cancun.
