Trust me when I say that this is not somewhere you want to stay. There were so many bad things about this accommodation that we just had to laugh about it, otherwise we would cry. The day staff was helpful when we first arrived and neither the fan nor AC nor TV worked in our room. She tried to help, but was not successful in fixing the problem. We stuck out the lack of AC in the extreme heat for 2 nights as there were no alternative rooms apparently, but we got no sleep because the room was stifling, plus no one in this hotel respects quiet hours and will happily be having loud conversations in the hallway for long periods of time in the middle of the night. To get a room change, we had to really fight and not take no for an answer from the night staff who seemed to be unwilling to help in any situation because it might make her actually lift a finger and do her job. Once we did get moved to a room on the same level as reception, we did finally have AC, but every night this lady was either talking loudly on the phone to her mates, or had friends at the front desk talking and laughing loudly from midnight to early hours of the morning. To then make this experience even more "exciting", the water went out for over 48hrs, the pool was a damn murky and dirty disgrace, the "breakfast provided" was literally sliced apple with maple syrup and a sprinkle of granola every day, and both rooms we had plus our friends in another room all had little bits of blood on the bedsheets.

basic hotel with good roof terrace

A couple of km north of the main commercial area, hotel had nice roof pool and a simple breakfast. There were a few parking spots. My room was very basic and somewhat dark (window looked on to a corridor). Price was fair for PDC --- plus a good taco place opposite.

Got a room on the 1st floor, with no blind except a transparent one! Everyone could see in the room, people on the street and people living in the apartment on the other side of the street! Room also had a humidity smell hidden with lot of perfume to hide it. We did ask to move to another room but we've been told there is no other available. We did ask to cancel and leave but again, not possible so we left. Very bad experience

The staff was VERY Friendly!! I feel bad that I can't give 5 stars, but wanted to give people an accurate idea of what you will be getting here. 1st- Hotel IS clean! Staff is friendly & helpful. Room was huge. Overall pleased with that. BUT- Very limited "amenities". Not even an ice machine. Only 1 chair in our room. Breakfast was white bread & a toaster, butter & a jelly, coffee or water. Getting a blanket and towels was like asking for gold. Never got an extra pillow. Only 1 trash can in the room (in bath) Overall it was decent place to base our trip from, we only slept there. But it is not a resort that you'd want to lounge around at. Neighborhood was a little sketchy too, although nothing bad ever happened to us or rental car. If you're used to staying at a 4 or 5 star resort, you will probably be disappointed. If not, it's not bad for the money!

This hotel should not be offered as a three star hotel. We left after the second night and booked another hotel that was about 100 times better and it was also rated three stars. This was an awful place - dirty and noisy

I was shocked when we got dropped off here. We are a couple in our early 60s. We were given a room on the ground floor with no lock on the window in a very rough neighborhood. Dogs were barking and people were drinking right on the street in the middle of the day, The window in our room had a sheet to cover it. There was no hot water. At all. The sink faucet was broken. Shower head sprayed left and right but not straight down. We asked for a pillow. They said they had none. We asked for a blanket. We were shown a picture of a broken washing machine and were told we could not get a towel or a blanket. We asked to move and they said there were no other rooms. We left after the first night in fear of our safety and because we couldn’t sleep due to all of the noise. The door in the lobby scrapes across a metal threshold when opened and closed. It was a nightmare! Do NOT stay here. You have been warned!!
