In general we had a good stay. Locatios is good. Bed was very comfortable, however, the duvet did not have a cover. This is not hygienic at all. Also, only one towel per person is available. This means that you have to dry your whole body, from face to feet with a single towel. They were changed daily. We found very helpful that we were able to leave our suitcases at the hotel after checkout. Also, one towel x the swimming pool is provided which is great. The swimming pool and its whole area is not clean. Breakfast is buffet but not to our taste. I think that they should reduce the amount of bread and introduce croissant, proper coffee made from espresso machine, proper bread. The air conditioner in the room was working but the temperature could not be regulated. Settings did not work and it was either too cold with the air on or too hot with no air. There was a hair dryer in the toilet which was good and a small fridge and tv in the room. Wifi available in the room even if automatic connection is not. Curtains were heavy and allowed a nice sleep in the morning. Plenty of hangers in the closet.

Location of property was excellent. Check-in was horrible it took and hour before we received a key to the room.
I like the fact that was ocean view. I don’t like the noise and lock of noise insulation in windows. The staff wasn’t accommodating at all. The pool area was poor
No hot water in shower, internet very slow. New building being built next to hotel, lots of construction noises, terrible view. Feeling like being in a prison. Cheap furniture. Very musky order inside the room
The only good thing about this hotel is its location. Otherwise, for the price you are paying, it’s too expensive for what it is.

The location itself is worth the price. However, if you dont like noise and people drinking until late avoid this spot. The pool is small and not all that. Food was average at best. Some staff members are really cool, others not as much. I do t like that their doors seem flimsy and unsecure and the safe box is really small.
In summary if your there for partying, drinking, the beach and dont need anything special, this is the place to go. If you want quality in your stay and less crowds, avoid this spot.

Perfect hotel location. Breakfast buffet from 7am to 10am. Bar has happy hour. I enjoyed myself in this hotel.
Pros
- View from the room is amazing
- Clean
- Nice breakfast
Cons
- Service at the breakfast needs to be improved. It takes sometimes more than 30 minutes just to get your order
- The hotel advertised that there is a nice pool but there is no pool due to the effects caused by Hurricane Iota. It was not communicated during booking but hotels.com tried its best to accommodate me better.
Excellent room service and the Breakfast was always fresh and good.

The location of the hotel is very good as well as their breakfast. The bad thing is they do not attend the complains such as I had problems with the air conditioning and TV of the room and it took them 3 days to finally send someone, and they did it because I had to stand in front of them until they do so. In other room the phone didn't work and they never care to send someone to help, even though we spoke with the person they have to attend complains.
The installations are a little old, specially in bathrooms. Also very important is they never mentioned that the rooms didn't have hot water and only you get it if you get a special room.
Internet it’s kind of slow..towel service not enough
Breakfast it’s really good and it’s located in a great area.
I would come back again to this place.
San Andres is an amazing place to visit. I pick this hotel because I wanted to be on the beach. The hotel is old and one day the sewer odor was terrible. I paid for an Ocean view room which are more expensive and when I complained about the odor they wanted to give me a room with a worst view. The hotel is not directly in front of the beach because there is rock and a cement area where people take pictures. You have a short walk to go to the beach. But for the price I paid it should have had nothing but pristine beach in front.
location is the only thing this place has, checked in, got to the rooms and promptly left

Location was good, some of the pictures on website dont look like they should. Some of the rooms look out dated. Also I found out that a standard room does not come with hot water, you have to get a superior room. Had to change rooms. The second room and tiny nats flying around. Had to change rooms again. Finally got a room that was good because they will not give refunds. You have to buy some kind of insurance and i think I know why. Pool area needs work, paint, rails are rusted, there was scafolding in pool area, upper bar roof falling apart and low that you can hit your head on it. Some of the staff were great but hotel needs work.
