Pros:

La atención del personal, muy amable

Cons:

La ubicación, el hotel esta rodeado de casas abandonadas lo que ha provocado personas en situación de calle que estén circulando constantemente. En algunos de los cuartos faltaba mantenimiento como por ejemplo en el aire acondicionado y los lavamanos. Teniendo en cuenta que se alquilaron 5 cuartos algunos presentaban temas como ruido y otro no presentaron mayor inconveniente.

PESIMA INSTANCIA
Cons:

La atención del personal, desde la recepción hasta el personal de aseo; las habitaciones en desaseo, la puerta sin chapa, camas poco cómodas, demasiado ruido en la habitación, la instancia no fue la mejor, la ubicación del hotel no es recomendable para nada, el hotel no es lo mas idoneo.

Good
Pros:

Room with balcony, easy booking and check in, free coffee and close to the beach

Cons:

there was a lack of communication, I booked a triple room, yet got a double, still was charged the same price for all the time I stayed there. (upon talking about it I got a bit if a discount, but still was more than what they usually charge for a double)
it's close to a nightclub, so often loud and the AC sometimes didn't work.

Pros:

The lady at the front desk when I arrived was very nice, she walked me to my room and gave me some.advice for restaurants around the hotel.

Cons:

The location is not the greatest. Not safe to walk around even just to go across the street to eat I didnt feel safe. There is nothing much in the area.
