BEWARE: This is not a HOTEL This is a very small MOTEL, beyond the Industrial Zone, beyond the outskirts of town. Very Spartan, no hot water in the sink in the room and only hot water out of the very primitive shower in the very primitive "bathroom." The front desk is only open when someone arrives. The tiny restaurant is OK but expensive. The room rate is OUTRAGEOUS on Orbitz! This property should not be on Orbitz! The Immigration officer and the taxi driver both did not believe me that I had a reservation here!!!

Lovely property, very helpful staff. Very close to the Walmart and the main bus stop leading to many beaches and towns, yet a wonderfully quiet street. Delicious Casado dinners onsite to purchase and an easy ride to the airport, just ask the staff and they arrange it. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Highly recommend for the price point!

Electrical box and wires in shower is dangerous. Other than that, hotel is nice. Neighborhood seems questionable, but we had no issues. Ultimately this hotel was a great value though.

The room was small but clean and cosy and suited three adults for our overnight stay. The staff were accommodating and helped us order Pizza for delivery to the hotel. It was pretty noisy at night but that was only because it was extremely windy at night. Breakfast in the morning was very good. All in all it was a brief but lovely stay. It was close to the airport for our flight in the morning.
