The office staff would constantly turn the air conditioning system off without telling us. The TV volume did not work, and office/cleaning crew would constantly want to count our room towels. On the positive side, the pool was kept to high standards and the pool staff was friendly so was the overnight office staff. I will not stay there again for sure!

Pros: nice place, clean, close to shopping places, nice wifi friendly, helpful staff. Cons: only one elevator on one isle, super hot and small, no fan in it. No water, tea, coffee maker, glasses, limited towels. Even when asked they wouldn't give you anything else. I can only give a 7/10😲

This hotel is in an excellent location to walk to both Playa Chahue and Playa Santa Cruz, and to walk to many restaurants and a large grocery store. Note that there is no elevator but the stairs are good exercise. Staff very friendly and helpful especially Omar, Lisette and Yolanda. Thank you for welcoming us so kindly!

Constant noise from kids in the pool all day. Not good for couples. But, yes, very affordable.

Location was perfect between a large supermarket across the street,a 10min. walk to the beach,and a 20min. walk into the heart of town. Maids would take all towels after cleaning the room in morning and bring clean ones after 4pm,so 0 towels until 4pm .Also you would have to ask, the aircond. to be turned back on if you came back to your room early,because they would turn off the power for the A/C during the Day.

Disliked: Staff & service

Little hospitality

First I asked to be in a room on a lower level as stairs are difficult I was told no because I booked with hotels.com. so after coming in the first day my room has no power so downstairs again. Then no wifi which was the case for the 3 nights. No bottled water or glasses. Loud voices carried throughout. Finally booked a tour was told English was spoken but 80% was Spanish and felt cheated out of information. Close to a beach further to find good coffee.

Comodo y sencillo

El hotel es sencillo, para el precio ofrece buen servicio y las instalaciones estan en buenas condiciones, las televisiones un poco viejas pero bueno casi no veo tv, creo que deberian agregar los refrigeradores esos pequeñitos que la mayoria de los hoteles tienen, la alberca estaba limpia. Se encuentra en una muy buena ubicacion cerca de la playa y el centro, los empleados son muy atentos, lo unico que no me gusto es que no cuentan con elevador y si te toca en el ultimo piso espero que tengas buena condicion fisico porque con las maletas se hace pesado el trayecto.
