Seriously, save your money.!!

There is a perfect reason why there is not a picture of the front of the hotel. Horrible. The only nice thing is the courtyard restaurant area.I get there in the front desk, girl seem clueless. I know they don’t have parking but the ad says there’s parking $60 a day. She doesn’t even know where that’s at. I had to go find my own parking which I end up paying $90 for the whole day which is a block over at the AC hotel. There’s a refrigerator in the room. There’s no microwave doesn’t even say on the ad that there’s no microwaves how are you supposed to warm up food the front desk clueless girl says well you can ask the restaurant to warm up your food. How do I look asking a restaurant that sells and cooks food to warm up my outside food that sounds ridiculous. The bed was hard towards the middle and had coils poking through mattress, not in good condition. The ad said, blackout curtains. There are no curtains. They’re just blinds and allow the light to come through. There’s no way to cover the light from outside. They say noise cancellation they put my room right above the entrance to the restaurant and all I hear until 12 AM. Noise from the restaurant and music from across the way. The rooms were not noise, cancellation or baffling. I had to buy earplugs to block out the noise.

I loved how the hostel had scenery, and it was relaxing as soon as I walked in. I have no complaints. It was also nice of them to provide beach towels that I could replace. I definitely would come back. 10/10!

Great place to stay on low budget. Very nice, friendly and helpful stuff. 5 minutes to the beach, 3 minutes to coffee shop, market, bakery. 1 stayed in the private room, outdated but clean. The only minus, smell in the room, hard to describe but not nice.

The best part of this facility is its lovely internal territory and the bar. The pool is also available, but it was pretty dirty and I have never seen anybody swim there. The room, furniture, and bathroom are kinda stylish, but very old. Generally looks not very clean. If you don't have high expectations regarding the room, most likely you will enjoy the bar and the good location of this hotel.

We stayed in the room with a king bed and it did the job. The room was small and the bathroom was tight with no selves to put things on which was inconvenient. There is no place to get water and ice whenever you need it so we had to ask. What we appreciated about the place was the location.... it was all but a block away from the beach which that section of the beach was not crowded at all which we loved. There are stores and restaurants within walking distance as well. Overall location was great and we had a good stay!
