Surprisingly clean for a place by the beach. Not perfect but good for what it’s worth. The staff who works the desk is very nice and helpful. Not very much I can critique

Me gustaron las instalaciones, el personal muy amable, tuve problemas con mi reservación ya que se había marcado otra habitación que yo no había solicitado al momento de realizar la reservación y el joven Richard me solucionó muy bien y eficazmente.! Mi estadía muy bien
