Reviews
The room was very comfortable and very nicely decorated..We were upgraded to a larger room, which was a nice surprise! Exceptionally clean and so was the bathroom. The staff were very helpful and friendly, in particular Angel. They spoke English and coped with our very limited Spanish!
The location is perfect for access to town and the beach. We very much recommend this hotel and will definitely be returning.
The only downside was the absence of a disposable toothbrush, which could be an unpleasant surprise if you don’t bring your own.
We were upgraded so I cannot say much about our real room. The one which was given to us was crazy big...
