Look for another hotel.

We did not stay. When we arrived to the hotel, we found out that there was no air conditioner. There was also something deceiving in its pictures in internet. There is a photo where it gives the impression of being a building, a whole building, but actually it is only the secondo floor. Without any hesitation, I don't recommend it. We did not get any refund for the advance payment. The should say that there is no air conditioner.

Clean, comfortable, not far from the beach

We were offered a room upgrade andwere very pleased overall with our accommodations. The paid parking is secure, but it is tricky getting in and out (you need to check in first, and then park the car, and there's no good "temporary" parking to make all this happen). Otherwise, a great stay. Helpful staff, clean and well appointed rooms. Don't let the "hostal" in the name scare you off.

Sucio , mi esposa realizó el reclamo a la llegada, lo único que solicité fue de inicio que me presenté a la primera noche y que no me había gustado el Hotel por lo que solicitaba que la segunda noche no la consideraran. La actitud del personal fue que por política no podían ya cambiarlo… Dentro de todo agradezco que no hayan considerado la segunda noche. Me hospedé en otro hotel a mejor precio y excelente .

Excellent value for money. Very clean, beds very comfortable, rooms spacious and staff very helpful and friendly, especially Monica who looked up information for us which was really useful for what we were looking for. We ended up parking at the hotel as parking was at a premium around about the hotel area and at least it was in a secure, lit up area underground, which could only be accessed by hotel residents who had booked parking and residents of the building
