a decent stay

orange juice fresh juice comfy bed comfortable bed good location convenient location bar entertainment loud entertainment electrical sockets awkward sockets dark room poor lighting

the breakfast was quite enjoyable. fresh orange juice was available. the location worked well with a car, near a grocery store. the bed in the room was large and quite comfy. it definitely helped me rest.

the noise from the bar entertainment was noticeable. it continued late into the night. the room felt a bit dark due to the blue paint. i found only an extension lead for electrical sockets.

Comfortable Stay With Minor Hiccups

kind reception clean hotel fresh fruit multilingual staff

Ibrahim was very cute upon our arrival. He was kind. The hotel was very clean. The walk to the beach took about 15 minutes. Reginaldo served us great cocktails at the bar. Breakfast included fresh fruit and orange juice which I enjoyed. Susana gave us cookies when we checked out. All staff spoke many languages.

The room looked a bit worn and could use an update. The electrical sockets were an extension lead in an awkward place. We had no sockets next to the bed. The tree outside blocked most of the balcony view.

The staff was friendly. The breakfast had many options.

The room smelled bad, similar to dirty socks! The design inside felt dark with its navy blue carpet and walls. The pool looked smaller than the pictures showed.
