Avoid at all costs
Do not stay here under any circumstances. No wi fi. No hot water. Beds are rock hard. Air con unit is so loud it made me jump every time it turned on. Stains all over bathroom. This place has clearly not had a cent invested in it in decades. Sleeping under a bridge is preferable to this place.

El personal es excelente, desde recepción , los empleados de el restaurante (barra) el joven que mantiene limpio los alrededores, en fin todos. Es un lugar acogedor q cuenta con dos piscinas (una para los niños pequeños y otra para los adultos y jovenes) cancha de baloncesto y volleyball. Le hace falta cariño al edificio como tal , el area de la piscina esta disponible hasta las 12media noche q es muy bueno.

El hotel necesita una renovación urgentemente. Los baños carecen de limpieza y están muy deteriorados. Camas, gaveteros, etc necesitan renovación también. Habían cucarachas y arañas por el cuarto.

The room smelled musty. Shower was dirty and the water was not draining from the tub. Broken room window. The pool was cloudy. The hotel looked VERY abandoned. This place has potential BUT it has been very neglected and it shows.

DO NOT Stay here !! The rooms were disgusting ! The sheets looked like there were not cleaned and just placed on the bed full of stains . The toliet bowl was filthy and the place was full of spiderwebs . The place is over run by a bunch of stray dogs. The place is in some sort of abandoned property. It’s horrible . I couldn’t stay the night and I left. The security guard said he was in charge and told me he couldn’t do anything except give me another room. The pool was cloudy and probably the stray dogs bathe there . Avoid at all cost. Run down , shady place.

Al llegar al hotel se ve peligroso por la noche porque no hay iluminación. hicimos el check in nos dieron dos cuartos que estaban ocupados por otros huéspedes. El tercer cuartos que nos dieron estaba sucio y al segundo día de la estadía llegamos al cuarto y estaba inundado por filtraciones en el área del baño así que nos mudan a una cuarta habitación y para colmo esa misma noche se fue el agua y no llegó hasta la 1 am del otro día. Es una pena porque el hotel está ubicado en un área bonita pero lamentablemente el hotel es muy viejo, no lo mantienen y el servicio de los empleados fue terrible.

This is a run down cheap motel not a hotel. Pool area was dirty. The beach is not within walking distance as advertised. Also there’s no fridge or microwave in the rooms. No ice vending machine. This is by far the worst place I’ve been & did not feel save at all.
