Worth it for the view
Couldnt check in, no office to enter, everything was behind a locked gate. Took another guest asking me if i needed help. Toilet didnt flush, tried to fix it, took lid off tank and the flush valve was held together with a safety pin. But they do have good views, and other guests were friendly. Saw sunrise and sunset from the hotel. Not much dining nearby. AC was coooold when i arrived.

Beach right across the street was a plus . The rooms was nice. The continental breakfast wasn’t good at all . The place also has a strong smell of cats and dogs .

This is a diamond in the rough, perfectly located between two beautiful beaches. Jamila was very helpful we arrived really early and she was able to get us into a nice room so we could go explore. Minutes from Main Street and the casino we only took an Uber one time to visit La Playita. Breakfast was decent the room was very clean. I will stay here again next time I visit.

I liked the proximity to both beaches (5 mins for one and across the street for the other). Good eateries in walking distance. The rooms need to be updated. The bathroom kept the smell of wet clothes in the duration of my stay, which I wasn’t a fan. Please get updated sheets; I’m sure the hotel makes enough to purchase new sheets vs having ones that are from the early 2000s. The bed was comfy though. Staff were all nice and welcoming 10/10 for them. The “continental” breakfast could use a HUGE upgrade. I don’t mind the dogs on the property, I actually like them, but clean up after them if they are to be there. Also, the sockets in my room were ALL extremely loose. I had to maneuver the cords to make sure my devices kept charged. Also, why is the property restaurant not opened as advertised.
