Breakfast choice limited but fine. Staff very helpful. Felt like a Costa Rica hotel, not a big chain, but still had what we needed - good aircon in room, swimming pool, comfortable bed, plenty of hot water, close to beach and lots of restaurants.

Abhijit

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
The location is good just minutes away from the beach. However the area is very crowded with cars parked on the way to the beach. The room that was assigned to us had some leaks from the toilet and the A/c vents. The staff changed the room after we complained which was good. Also let us check out late with minimal charges. However the residents who uses the pool plays loud music with no care for other residents. The management should look into this. The faucets and showers need to be changed as they seem outdated and loose.
