Right on the beach

The room works if all you plan to do is sleep there and store your belongings. Don't book this place expecting to be comfortable. It was clean and had bare necessities but I wouldn't do anything more than sleep and shower here.

Simple budget hotel, close to beach

I chose this hotel to be close to the beach without paying beachfront prices. The rooms are dated and simple, but I found them to be clean and acceptably comfortable. The A\C unit was quiet and effective. The pool was nice and I enjoyed the breakfast. Staff were friendly and efficient; I met the dedicated owner, Esteban and his family. There aren't many quiet sleeping spots in this little beach town. This hotel sits adjacent to a restaurant with live music and the rather bawdy Cocal Hotel. I knew this before I came and was prepared with ear plugs. I slept fine. I'll stay here again.

Tiene una buena ubicación,cerca de la playa

La habitación estaba cerca de la calle, entraba mucho ruido. La habitación estaba descuidada, el techo le faltaba pintura, la cama estaba como hundida al final del colchón. Por el resto todo bien, tiene un acceso directo a la playa, la piscina era grande y agradable. Dicen que tiene restaurante, pero nunca lo vi abierto. Recomiendo este hotel por ubicación, pero es muy sencillo.
