Great..amazing..comfy.. and affordable
Pros:

The room was the cheapest I can find at SPI..check in time online said 4pm..I call and reception said no..that I can go in as early as 11am.. the washer and dryer worked great..and for 1.50.. usual hotels are 3.00 and takes 2 dryers to dry..here with 1 was more than enough..bedsheets and pillows smelled clean..desinfected.. extra towels..rooms super clean.. spacy..comfy..tv was huge.. nice pool clean.. beds clean and comfy..I will definitely go back.. I arrived to SPI online pics shows hotel color pink..but it has been renovated..and it's super nice.. I am a mom..and am always extra careful..this exceeded my expectations..oh and 7 min away walking from an beach access point
