Adequate and worth what I paid for it
Pros:

Room was adequate and worth what I paid for it. However, the windows faced the airport and there was quite a bit of noise as the airplanes took off.

Pros:

We didn’t receive the room we booked! The room was a mess and damage to the bathroom faucet. We were not given the wi-fi password and no other information given about options!

Pros:

Great location, close to the beach and restaurants. However, the hotel itself needs an urgent upgrade, especially the rooms. We stayed for two nights and it was fine since we mainly needed a place to sleep.

Pros:

The room was fine for the price, it had a pool which was cool. There were also nice dining options in the property. The bathroom was extremely narrow and difficult to navigate but again for the price it was fine. I’m a pinch, I’d consider staying here again.

Pros:

We came from New York for night to see a concert. If it would have been longer than one night we would have changed hotels immediately. The rooms were outdated and very dirty. Beds were uncomfortable and the room was not cleaned. There were things the prior guest left in our room. We didn’t sleep or fully lay on the bed because the beds looked unchanged. We found hair in the sheets. The toilet had hair on the bowl and looked dirty as well. The walls are paper thin and you hear everything outside. I requested a blow dryer and was told they broke. The staff were very friendly.

Resuelve para estadías cortas de emergencia
Pros:

Es un hotel pequeño y sencillo,pero muy bien ubicado.El servicio fue bueno durante check- in y check- out.Tiene estacionamiento,con un costo accesible,pero el cupo es limitado,por lo que debe llegar temprano.Para una corta estadía es perfecto,porque resuelve.Si no le gusta los ruidos,sepa que escucharás aviones constantemente,por la cercanía al aereopuerto y también tiene la avenida principal muy cerca.
