Very good but it needs maintenance
Pros:

The room was a big, clean and comfortable. It had a microwave and a fridge. The bathroom looked recently renovated. The restaurant was incredible! Lots of food and delicious. The hotel is beachfront with chairs and hammocks.

Cons:

The pool looks old and definitely needs maintenance. It looks old and kind if dirty. It's weird because the rest of the hotel is the opposite. Also, when you park, yo can see the main entrance, also lacking care and maintenance.
There wasn't a hairdryer in the room.

Pros:

L emplacement
La literie

Cons:

Par rapport aux photos l’hôtel a bien vieillit de l extérieur. Les chambres sont correctes malgré les murs avec des vitres qui donnent sur le couloir avec la lumière qui rentre dans les chambres ! À côté de l’hôtel il y’a un bar qui met la musique forte le soir
La piscine est st petite par rapport aux photos et pas très bien entretenue

Propre, intime magnifique
Pros:

Les chambres étaient exceptionnelles. Les lits hyper confortable. On est directement sur la plage et elle est tres propre. Par contre la nourriture était très cher et pas toujours très bon. J'y est mangé le pire Mahi de ma vie! Mais les déjeuner sont excellent. La plage est belle et tranquille. Le personnel est relativement bien mais certain serveur manque de courtoisie.
Somme toute je recommande

Cons:

La présence de chien et de chats ne m'ont personnellement pas déranger mais certain avait l'air de ne pas apprécier

Pros:

Located right on the beach and about a 35-minute drive from Liberia airport. No breakfast, but complimentary coffee. Rooms are clean and comfortable with WiFi and air conditioning.

Cons:

Transport to LIR arranged through the front desk seemed quite expensive at $70USD with only cash accepted and the driver had no change although front desk assured me that he would have some. With only 3 people riding and light luggage, I asked for a car--and they arranged a large shuttle and said it was the same price. It felt excessive.
