Our room was beautiful. Breakfast was a typical Salvadoran breakfast. The coffee was amazing. Although we didn't speak Spanish, we were able to communicate with staff through Google Translate. The staff were all very patient and kind.

This place is so-so. The photos make it look better than it actually is. It’s a bit far from the beach, but close to the main trucks and cars route. There’s a church close by, so you can hear people singing at night for a couple of hours—not too bad, though. The breakfast is okay, nothing out of the ordinary. The staff are not very friendly; they just do their job. I don’t think I would stay here again. I would give it a 5 out of 10.

Loved this hotel it’s a cute cozy place to stay. The rooms were clean with very nice decorations. Definitely recommend to stay at this place. If you don’t care to drive Uber is very cheap to get to the restaurant strip of surf city.
