Booked it on a whim as i needed a place to stay for an evening very last minute. Woman at checkin was so upbeat and nice. Facility was older but extremely clean and well maintained which i honestly prefer to the marble walled resorts. Located on a super pretty beach, plenty pf amenities/food within walking distance.
