Amazing views, ancient toilet seat
Pros:

The location right on the beach and the views from the balcony. The bartender was super nice. Beds were comfortable. The price was way too high for this place.

Cons:

Big quantities of rust, wet floors due to rainstorms and no good drainage. There was mold on the ceiling of our room , check in was long. Not efficient. Came to check out yesterday at 10:00 am, desk empty, lights off. I think for more than $300 a night, there are other cleaner guest houses and hotels. The place really needs renovation

Cons:

Para entrar tienes que entrar por unas puertas, que estaban cerradas, porque es una urbanización privada y no te avisan de ello.
Solo había wifi en el restaurante, y no llegaba nada a la habitación,
La habitación muy vieja, tenía una puerta que conectaba con otra habitación y se escuchaba todo.
La ducha no salió agua caliente

It was on the beach

Cons:

Very basic facilities, restaurant was closed, they didn’t even have coffee in the lobby for customers, the front desk young man was friendly, but the older woman was not. This place is not worth the remoteness trouble to get to

Agradable y cómodo.
Pros:

La mánager fue muy atenta, la habitación y el baño eran más grandes de lo esperado y tenía ventanas a diferencia de lo que se ve en las fotos cosa que me alegró.

Cons:

Cuando fui a hacker el check-in la recepcionista intentó estafarme pidiendome el IBAN y el código de seguridad de la tarjeta de crédito. Por suerte no nací ayer y no lo permití y entonces fue que sacó el datáfono.

Pros:

This hotel was perfect! We flew to Puerto Rico for the Bad Bunny concert. The hotel was cute, it had a Moroccan vibe to it! Comfy bed, good water pressure in the shower. We liked the small kitchenette… perfect!!! Marlene was sweet and helpful. Great location with lots of eating options. Ocean park beach within walking distance.
