Nice big rooms and a great place to stay
Pros:

Nice place, big rooms, pool is big enough to do some strokes.

Beach is a 10 min walk.

Enjoyed my stay, will visit again.

Cons:

The road and the bar at the edge of town can be loud. Earplugs are mandatory.

It’s a rocky beach and the waves up here can be dangerous for swimming.

Schönes Hotel für Partypeople
Pros:

Das Hotel hat eine wirklich bezaubernde und sehr schön gestaltete Außenanlage. Auch das Essen und die Getränke im Hotel sind sehr gut, und abends wird das Ambiente durch tolle Livemusik abgerundet.Die Zimmer selbst (wir hatten das Familienappartement) sind eher einfach, aber zweckmäßig eingerichtet. Auch die integrierte Küche ist sehr einfach gehalten, erfüllt aber im großen und ganzen ihren Zweck. Ein großer Minuspunkt ist jedoch die Lautstärke im Familienzimmer: Die Straße ist hier deutlich und störend hörbar. Das liegt vor allem daran, dass die kleinen Küchenfenster direkt zur Straße hinzeigen und den Schall kaum abhalten. Die anderen Zimmer sind anders geschnitten (nur im Bad sind Fenster zur Straße), wodurch hier die Lautstärke vermutlich weniger groß ist.
Zudem befindet sich direkt nebenan eine Bar, in der jeden Tag lautstark Party gefeiert wird.

Cons:

Wer auf der Suche nach Party, Nachtleben und Feiern ist, ist hier genau richtig und wird eine tolle Zeit haben. Wer jedoch Ruhe, Erholung oder einen tiefen Schlaf sucht, sollte sich definitiv eine andere Unterkunft suchen. Schade um das eigentlich schöne Hotel.

Awful accommodation: mice, mold and noise
Pros:

The only thing we liked was the pool. And tbe barkeeper was very friendly, he completely understood why we checkied out after one night!

Cons:

Terrible hotel. We had booked four nights but left after just one. Upon arrival, they even tried to charge us again for half of the stay, despite the fact that everything had already been paid for.

The room smelled strongly of mold and was downright filthy: dust, hair, and dead insects everywhere. There was blood on the towels. The shower produced only a tiny trickle of water, not enough to take a proper shower. The refrigerator was leaking. There were mouse droppings on the floor and actual mice in the room. On top of that, there was excessive noise from the neighboring bar until well after midnight.

Booking.com was unable to resolve the issue and sided with the property, resulting in only minimal compensation.

Descanso
Pros:

La atención del personal y las habitaciones están renovadas

Cons:

Que por olvido dejé una cuenta de US$37 en consumo sin pagar y luego de haber salido del lugar me la cargaron sin previo aviso a mi tarjeta de crédito. Eso me preocupa, no por el cobro, sino porque me podrían realizar cargos sin mi autorización. Creo que eso no debería ocurrir
