Really loved the pool and ocean views along with listening to the waves.
Pros:

The pool area was wonderful with easy access to the beach. Our room was not facing the water but it was clean and comfortable despite not having natural light outside of the bathroom. The seating at near the pool and in the bar/restaurant was very comfortable. Wifi worked well in the pool area.

Cons:

The Wifi did not work in our room. Drinking water was not provided as we have experienced in all the other El Salvador hotels we have stayed in (this is our 6th this month). The bar sold water bottles but only the smaller less economical size. It would be nice if the hotel provided a means to refill bottles even if they charge a bit ($.25) for the refill.

Great location and value for the money
Pros:

Nice little place with pleasant staff. Nice pool and view. Easy to Uber for $3 into El Tunco. Great mile long beach to walk on. Shower has a garden in it.

Cons:

Shower only has one temperature water but I think that is fairly normal in El Salvador. Not uncomfortable but you definitely dont spend time relaxing there.

Solo la vista vale la pena
Pros:

La vista y la playa

Cons:

El acceso al lugar, no hay buena atención, la recepcionista que me entrego la llave tenía cara de pocos amigos, como que el trabajo le causaba molestia. Había que estar llamando repetidas veces al personal porque no estaban muy atentos o estaban entretenidos en el celular.
