Ac and shower was great after a long week in the islands . Staff very nice . They sent out my laundry great price . Pool was a nice addition. Only reason not 5 stars is because elevator was broke and carrying luggage to floor 3 was hot and hard. Location is great food and fun and beach right there

Nice street view from balcony (but I think only two apartments with balcony so maybe I got lucky). Breakfast is purposely cooked for you and good quality, so not unlimited buffet. Central, lots to do nearby, near restaurants, transport, beach, gym, shops. Cooler and fridge in room was surprisingly good. Secure building because no visitors allowed and reception very small. Very noisy area nearly all night/morning, no blackout blinds, no “do not disturb/clean” tag for door, none of the staff speak basic level of English. Overall, you get what you pay for (so don’t compare to Hilton or Caribe down the road) and if you don’t mind the night noise and speak a little Spanish then a good choice for travelling on a budget and I would return but most probably bring something to temporarily blackout windows.

This hotel has its pros and cons: Pros: -If you're seeking an affordable place within a short walking distance to the beach, this hotel is an excellent choice. Boca Grande beach is just a 3-5 minute walk away. -The neighborhood is safe and offers convenient access to amenities like banks, shops, and restaurants. It's also easy to find transportation to the city center within 10-20 minutes. Cons: - While they provide daily room cleaning, the sheets won't be changed unless you specifically request it. - The air conditioning doesn't have an automatic shut-off, leading to uncomfortably cold nights, especially since there are no comforters. - Curiously, they keep tight control over the towels, as if they're afraid they'll be stolen. Your towels often disappear as soon as you step out. - The hotel enforces numerous rules, giving the impression of being confined in a restrictive environment such as a jail. For each visitor you have, there's a charge of 70,000 COB before they're allowed to enter your room. This policy applies even if it's just a brief 1-hour massage, which can become quite costly if you have many friends visiting. Additionally, the staff's attitude towards visitors can be quite impolite. - Complimentary bottled water is not provided. - The breakfast experience is quite underwhelming and minimal. However, considering the price you pay, it's acceptable. In conclusion, I would not choose to stay there again. Best of luck in your decision-making.

Look elsewhere
The bedsheets feel like sand paper, there's no comforter. The shower was freezing cold. The elevator and TV weren't working. I had to commit to a specific time for breakfast when I checked in but still ended up waiting 20 min for my breakfast to be served. Overall, the location is great but the place is run down.

Owner needs to restock towels and bed linens
Owner needs to restock with new bath towels. Towels look like they have not been replaced for about 5 years. Towels they currently have on stock or use show stains of unknown liquids. Seems that owner has not replaced bed linens either. Have noticed that after room is made housekeeping use the same linens as the night before and not replace with new clean linens.
