Great no frills and affordable

Bikini Beach is our favorite place to stay in PCB. More bang for your buck and right on the beach, easy access. The pool is clean and checked every day by maintenance. Everything is clean and maintained. Bring your own hangars if you need to hang items. The Tiki Bar has great drinks you can take to the pool or beach.

What I can say it the staff is friendly and check-in was easy. The cleanliness wasn’t that great but it was decent, I brought my Clorox and Lysol wipes and did my own cleaning. But I love the fact it’s right off the beach and we were close to everything. The location was and is everything

First of all the view of the beach and water is beautiful. I kept this in my mind as I noticed the dirty carpet, outdated fixtures and white cabinets looking as if a dog chewed at the edges. The room was drab. Keep in mind I kept thinking of the beautiful view and easy access to the beach. On the downside there was a new Samsung TV, with an old remote and new remote. There were no instructions and I had to use the antenna to watch TV. I ask for assistance and received help only to find out that they did not know how to use the TV accessories either. NO cable NO internet to the TV. Whenever I ask for something the staff was snarky. I saw the manager several times and she was not friendly, she appeared to have an attitude that it was beneath her to speak to me. There were two refrigerators in the room without freezers, I put food in the refrigerator and the food froze, To my knowledge there was no way to adjust the temperature on either little fridge. I'm not sure if they were freezers or refridgerators. Keep in mine the Tiki bar bartenders were very friendly and the swings were relaxing. I choose this hotel because I wanted a surreal relaxing vacation. However I felt depressed in the dark gloomy room with old dirty curtains and a musty smell that only worsened as I laid in the bed to relax.

It was horrible! The room we first got was so bad we had to get another room. The second room was almost just as bad . Room service was never offered and when I did ask for fresh towels the maid looked at me with disgust and handed me a trash bag to put my dirty towels in. Horrible experience!
