Our stay was amazing. The location view was incredible. We didn’t know the room didn’t have a refrigerator or ice until we arrived. We made do with a styrofoam cooler and bags of ice, but would had been nice to know. Hot water was not working. I asked but didn’t get a response but everything else was good. Responses on other needs were met fully. Not much happening in that area but looks like it once was. We would love to see it come up again. We loved the room itself also but the hotel could benefit by having a mini fridge/icemaker/microwave or coffee maker. Would be nice to find a way to use the balcony of that room as well where you can at least latch the windows to stay open. Again, we had a wonderful stay. These are just suggestions/improvements that could make the difference from good to excellent! One other issue we had 2 separate incidents where strangers walked into our room thinking it was theirs. Make sure to lock up! We don’t understand people making this mistake and happened twice with more than one person at a time. Other than that. We would still stay again. Shade upgrades would be helpful as well since it was a struggle to open & close. Couple of restaurants close by are were prey good as well.
Hermoso y muy confortable hotel frente al mar. Sería perfecto si pudieran solucionar el ruido constante del motor del agua que no te permite descansar adecuadamente en la noche.
I stayed here for 5 days during the summer. I loved that there is a beach walking distance from the place. Restaurant line the coast as you walk. The bed was so comfortable. Huge private bathroom with great lighting. You can listen to the ocean while you sleep. My only complaint would be that there is no mini fridge. Overall, I would recommend it if you are looking for a quiet place to stay.
The property is old, dirty, and run down. Bugs crawling all over the filthy stove and mold everywhere. Dirty bed sheets, towels and blankets. The guy that handles the booking was very remorseful and helpful. He did refund my money. However, don’t waste the money on this dump.
I enjoyed this place, very serene and relaxing. My one complaint, we didn’t realize this was located basically on top of a karaoke bar that goes well past midnight. The place is really nice and would come back!
