Loved this hotel and location! We had a room with a balcony with an ocean view and outdoor kitchen and it was perfect to watch the sunset and have a glass of wine. Great price for this hotel!
Great location and the staff was excellent. They accomodated my recent knee injury and my husband's need for a fridge by upgrading us to a first floor, larger room at no extra cost. We will stay there again next year

Great room overlooking the ocean, staff are very service oriented. The rooms require updates; specifically the bathrooms and internet was really poor, kept dropping constantly.
Great place, great location, proximity to everything was definitely the highlight.
The rooms, while basic in nature, were very clean and the staff made the stay extremely enjoyable. Even during the incident on the 22 March 2026 the staff still showed up and cared about everyone being safe. They definitely went above and beyond every day.
Everything about this hotel is excellent. Staff warm and welcoming, beautiful ocean views, location is great. Clean comfortable stay. Thoroughly enjoyed the stay and will definitely book this place again!
I stayed in a standard king room. The building itself is a bit older but still maintained very well. The main highlight of the hotel is its convenient location on the beach. The staff are very friendly and willing to share information on what to do in Puerto Vallarta. If noise bothers you, this may not be the best place since it is located next to several bars and clubs playing loud music.
very attentive staff, clean room, and very affordable rates right on the beach

The hotel staff at the front desk especially the manager were very helpful and courteous with our reservations. The maid service was also excellent. I would go there again!
Elevator broken the entire stay. Front staff were amazing and kind throughout the stay. 1st night was a horrible room on the basement floor with no view. We should get credit for the first night.
This is the 3rd or 4th time we have stayed in this hotel and we love it. The staff is always accommodating. The rooms are basic; but the beds are comfortable. Location can't be beat! I would highly recommend this hotel. The rooms facing the ocean are worth the extra $$.
The room was just a mountain side standard room (nothing special) but I knew this going in. But it was always cleaned very, very well by the friendly house keeping staff! The entire hotel staff was very friendly, let us use a refrigerator in our room and was responsive to questions and needs that we had. Our trip had to be unexpectedly extended due to the cartel attacks in the city and the hotel staff was very gracious and even offered a discount for the additional days. I was most appreciative and would not expect that to occur in the USA! It was a great location and I would definitely stay at this property again!
