Good for the price

The hotel had free indoor garage parking .. a total plus. The internet was sufficient. 24/7 reception. Nobody spoke any English, but that was ok too. Hot water was good. Overall, a good value for the money. The rooms had good air conditioning. The neighbourhood wasn't safe but looked a bit sketchy after darkness.

Love it

Everything was way more nice and clean then I expected. I will tell everyone to stay there if they are in the area. The fresh cut up fruit with granola and honey was a plus.

Excellent clean hotel with friendly staff.

This was a nice clean hotel close to restaurants, stores including large grocery store, etc. Well equipped rooms with A/C, TV, etc. Clean functional bathroom, plenty hot water. Safe and secure location. It is within walking distance of the ADO bus station but it is a far walk. Would take taxi if have luggage. Taxi was 50 pesos.

Nice cheap hotel, not ideal location

The hotel was very clean, and well equipped with an excellent staff. Two problems: first the hot water took a while to work after turning on the water, and second the location is not ideal, but they can call you a taxi that picks you up so if your not wanted to go explore its a good place.

Hotel was really nice. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. Small complimentary breakfast was unexpected and appreciated. As other reviews say the rooms had no window/view of outside but we weren't bothered by this. Location wasn't the best, but only a short walk to the bus station and touristy restaurants. Fantastic value for money.
