Older property and our room looked updated with the exception of the bathroom. Rusted toilet paper holder, toilet smelled like backed up sewer. Mirror and vanity really old. We loved the view of the ocean/beach from the balcony. We had a ocean view studio and it was very small, but the view made up for it. Floor was tiled and seemed/felt dirty, so did not want to walk barefoot in the room. The bed was comfortable and linens were good. Quiet place and overall we enjoyed our stay. We did not use the pool or game room.

Don Pancho is in a great location with easy access to the beach. We were upgraded to a 3 bedroom apartment which had recently been renovated and it was spacious, clean and had everything we needed. The staff were lovely and acted quickly to fix a blocked vanity.

The location, direct on the beach so great views. Also relaxing at the pool was great. We only had a small studio but that was very nicely decorated. You can see that a lot of effort has been put in to make it all look beautiful and some areas they are still working on but that didnt impact our stay.
