We only stayed one night to do a biobay tour and this was the perfect location. The bunk beds were fun and although i was hesitant at first about the shared bathrooms, it worked out totally fine. Rooms had a/c and we slept well! Communication with the host was via text and very helpful and convenient. Would definitely stay here again!

Shared bathroom

The weather was beautiful. Great location. Just be prepared to share bathrooms with no hand soap in any of them. And using the bathroom someone was on the roof with a leaf blower and blow water and leafs all over me when I was using the bathroom.

Great value but main problem was mosquitos!

Great value overall but for such a tiny bunk room, I'm surprised with how many mosquitos were in there. Upon entering, we immediately noticed around 2 which after a bit of effort I was able to kill in a few minutes. But, the surprising thing is they kept coming back. It's almost like there's a hole somewhere that they were coming in from and there were perpetually 2 - 3 mosquitos in there. By the end of the first night I killed 6. Then the next morning I killed another 3. Luckily we had wearable head nets to better prevent mosquitos from biting us but I think I still had one bite on my ankle through the blanket. Maybe the doors can also be kept closed more during cleaning?

Very low-key. Very small. Grounds are more like a compound. Nothing fancy about this place but it served the exact purpose we wanted. Basically connected to Lazy Jacks Bar that has a decent menu and a solid mixed drink selection. I wouldn’t normally give this type of establishment 4-stars but taking into consideration the location, walkability, accessible parking and quiet grounds it seemed fitting. There wasn’t anything outstanding about this place but there also wasn’t anything wrong with it.

Motel Maybe

Understand that this is at best a motel and more like a hostel. It is not to the level of a motel 6 but the location is good. AC works well and the bed is fine but accommodations are commensurate with the 6 or 7 rating. There is a musty smell in the room and it could use some TLC. No hot water no matter how long I let it run.

Checkin process is all automated, with a lockbox for the room key. They DO have facilities to store your luggage if you arrive before checkin. It was very small but clean and for our short stay it was more than enough. If we had to stay longer I would probably choose elsewhere though

This is a beachfront area so funky beachy. The office was very attentive and made arrangements for guests to safely store luggage post check out. Our only issue was the a/c blew directly at the bed and was cold even when we raised the temperature.

Great place to stay. Room needed more hooks to hang things and would have been nice to have access to beach chairs and coolers.
