On arrival, the staff greeted us nicely and assisted with our baggage. Unfortunately the check in staff was unpleasant at the desk. We were told the room wouldnt be ready for 1 hour, eventually another staff member came by and took us up to our room as they were just finishing the floor. Yes the hotel is old and dated, but the room matched the photos and we expected it to be a bit dated. The location is amazing, easily accessible to everything. The beach is nice, however the beach chairs are not comfortable as are the pool chairs, but again it is a budget hotel. Towels are provided each day and returned by the end of the day for no charge. The pool worked well for us, some days was busier than others but overall we enjoyed it. We ended up getting a Jr suite with our booking, so we were lucky to have a fridge. We had talked to some other guests who didn't have a fridge but they were able to find a Styrofoam cooler and ice for their drinks. We didnt eat at the restaurant, and heard from other guests to avoid it. In a pinch it might be an okay option to eat. We would definitely stay again if we are in PVR

Firstly, I would like to acknowledge Noemi at the front desk for being kind and accommodating. The bell boys were eager to help. There is a younger man at the front desk that was curt and rude. The maids were sweet and kind. The resort itself is dated and could use a refresh. Our shower drain was completely broken off and we had to be careful that we didn’t step into the hole. The beach chairs are OLD and UNCOMFORTABLE. Where are the loungers. When I’m at the beach, like to lay down not sit in a SAGGY chair. If there’s one reason why I wouldn’t come back and to this resort is because of those beach chairs. All in all I give this Hotel a 3/10

We stayed for 10 days. Ask for Fernando, he is excellent he remembers what you are drinking and checks on you (pool/beach). Housekeeping came by approximately same time everyday and cleaned the room, left a work of art with the towels....Just know you can use Uber down there it is cheaper than the taxis. We love it!!!!!

It is a beautiful property, very clean every day. Employees are nice to work with and helpful with answers. Love the pool and bar area. I wish they used fabric softener on the shower towels, and i wish there were more than one outlet in the Jr. Suite. Some outlets by the bed would be nice for phone and alarms in the morning. Beautiful views from this property too.

The Tropicana had a wonderful beach area and wonderful service. The rooms and hotel grounds were very clean. The only downside would be that the elevators ding really loudly and woke me up in the mornings. It would also be nice if you could get food service (especially morning coffee) to your room.

We requested a room change to double beds (from one king) and the front desk was very accommodating despite the property being sold out. In particular Victor was extremely helpful and professional in meeting our needs. This property is a gem. Location is unbeatable on the beach. 2 large pools. Rooms are not in the most up to date condition, but maintained well and very reasonably priced compared to the neighboring hotels.

The internet did not work most of our stay there. High speed internet was advertised but not available. The exterior building was run down and not in good repair. I wouldn't book this if you need internet for work or other reason. The one good thing about this hotel is that it is close to the downtown area and near good restaurants.

Very well located right on the beach, friendly staff, great pool and restaurant area. Please be aware there is NO parking in the hotel. They claim to have parking but there is never room, they want a tip to give you access to a spot "just happen to open" if you give them a tip, and getting in and out of the 'lot' is impossible due to the tight set up. Because the hotel is located in a very small street, street parking is generally not available either. Best parking is a few blocks away.

Two stars: one for a place to sleep, one for air conditioning (a noisy portable wall unit). Otherwise, nothing to recommend about this place. Dirty walls, water spots on ceiling, crumbling grout, mold around the shower, ancient appliances, super thin walls. Location is excellent, however - right on the beach. Which is good, because you won’t want to spend any unnecessary moment in your room.
