This is a great location with a short walk to the beach. Great pool, towels, AC and walking distance to restaurants, night life, shops, etc. very safe. The only complaint is that it’s so hidden we couldn’t get to it easily. We were charged parking by the lot next door for making a wrong turn. It has a green gate and under construction also the water from the shower/ bathroom isn’t heated very well and salty if that matters to you. Otherwise a great stay.

Perfect location. We booked this place as a last minute option as everything was sold out or pricey for our budget, but it was clean and the air conditioning was excellent. I highly recommend it for the budget travelers.

Lady at the front desk stated My card got declined and asked me to pay her in cash. It was all a lie because when I told her I had no cash she proceeded to process my payment with the same card it was “declined” and payment went through with no issues. While getting my information she kept telling me about how easy it was just to pay her with cash. Very awkward moment and definitely something fishy was going on. Next time will consider other options before this one.
