Room was clean, staff were friendly. Amazing access to the beach and great views of the ocean. This area of town is quieter, which is nice.
Clean well situated, def budget hotel. Had to check out an iron and hair dryer for an hour. Breakfast restaurant is a joke, really unorganized, food is meh. But it will keep you going, nice little mex cafe around the corner. I d stay again but bring a hair dryer and washcloths! Nothing provided unless you asked.

Liked: Cleanliness
The toilet seats are off soft plastic so you sink when you seat. They are not very clear on how to use your breakfast pass. The kitchen and staff crew are not very friendly. The room cleaning service very good
