We had a nice stay overall, mainly because of the beach, where we spent about 95% of our time. The beach itself is naturally beautiful and has a lot of potential. We only used the pool a couple of times, but it was very clearly well maintained and clean. Most guests seemed to spend their time there, which may explain why the pool area is in better condition. The pool is also a shared space with a neighboring hotel, and it appears to be well managed. Unfortunately, the room was very underwhelming. It felt old, worn, and extremely humid, which caused a persistent musty smell—especially on rainy days. Although housekeeping did clean regularly, the issues were clearly related to the condition of the room rather than cleanliness. Rusty kitchen appliances (including the toaster) and outdated fixtures made the space feel neglected. The beach, while beautiful, could benefit from much better upkeep. There was a noticeable amount of seaweed, dirt, cigarette butts, and other debris, and it didn’t seem like it was being cleaned or maintained regularly. We still had a pleasant time thanks to the location, but the experience could be significantly improved with updated rooms and better beach maintenance. With more attention to these areas, this property could be much nicer.

Disliked: Cleanliness
First, our morning began on a less-than-ideal note, arriving at 4:45 am to a front desk reluctant to accommodate a late check-out. Worn hallways with a musty scent set the tone, while amenities were lacking - a non-functional sink, scant hot water, and grimy shower doors. Thin, paper-like blankets offered little comfort against the chill .

The staff was amazing, shout out to Carlos, Yashira and Sabrina! The hotel itself needs a bit of work per se. The microwave fell apart in my hand when I went in the room. The shower was wet after I checked in, there were tiny bugs in the shower curtain and the bedroom drawers were old and dirty on the inside. The counter tops were dusty and had some debree and the ceiling should be checked because I saw a lot of water filtration in the hallways. The carpets with water stains were dead giveaways. The closet in my bedroom closed but it was broken and out of place and the safe had a giant cut out hole on the side. The air conditioning works well and the room is small but comfortable. The curtains have to be tied with a hair clip because they didn’t close fully. Overall I think this place needs some work. But overall for the beach access and location provided it’s debatable whether the price fits or not. It’s up to you honestly, I’m my honest opinion I don’t think I’ll book here again. But staff wise everyone was great.

Room was clean, beach was nice. Location was nice. Power was off for, "Maintenance" for 6 hours. The staff handled it appropriately. Place was all Id expect for a 3 star, a blend of dated furniture blended with 4 star amenities. Worth the price.
