We had a balcony, in February! The sunsets and rises were excellent, sounds of the ocean were as expected. We spent 3 nights at this hotel, first time here. Our room was clean and fresh, we had a great time tour around the town, looking forward to coming back !

This was a happening place back in the day. Now it is old and rundown. Smell smoke everywhere. Rooms very outdated. Leftover beer in the fridge. Sand in the bed.

Our room was infested with cockroaches that we found as soon as we walked in and turned on the lights, we turned around and walked out. We reported to the staff and asked if they would assist us finding new accommodations but they couldn’t have been bothered, though they were pleasant enough about offering us a refund (clearly this wasn’t the first time they’ve dealt with this)
