Lovely property, very helpful staff. Very close to the Walmart and the main bus stop leading to many beaches and towns, yet a wonderfully quiet street. Delicious Casado dinners onsite to purchase and an easy ride to the airport, just ask the staff and they arrange it. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Highly recommend for the price point!

Good Value

Electrical box and wires in shower is dangerous. Other than that, hotel is nice. Neighborhood seems questionable, but we had no issues. Ultimately this hotel was a great value though.

The room was small but clean and cosy and suited three adults for our overnight stay. The staff were accommodating and helped us order Pizza for delivery to the hotel. It was pretty noisy at night but that was only because it was extremely windy at night. Breakfast in the morning was very good. All in all it was a brief but lovely stay. It was close to the airport for our flight in the morning.

Close to airport

A good place to stay if all you need is a room. No amenities close by and cafe was not open at all. Close to the airport and has a shuttle service you can pay for.

Unfortunately, myself and another customer were overbooked into the hotel. However, the gentleman at the reception was extremely helpful in helping us both to find rooms at another location and getting us to the site. Because of the his efforts, I am just thinking of this as a vacation adventure, something a little unusual.

The hotel is located in a residential neighborhood with a nearby bar/lounge. The bar played loud music until midnight so we could hear the thumping which was not conducive to sleep. The bathroom was tiny and the electrical panel is located IN the shower above the shower curtain which did not look safe. Luckily, we were there only 1 night and opted not to use the shower.
