    Clean rooms, right on the beach, housekeeping staff very friendly. Big fridge with freezer microwave, stove top, spacious room. No coffee maker in room, but front desk has coffee between 7 am and 8 pm.

    The room definitely needed to be deep cleaned.

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Nothing it was not clean there was literal bugs on the floor! Looks like downstairs rooms don’t get cleaned and have stained sheets, smell like mould and there are a ton of bugs all over the floor in the corners. My room has a broken lock on it as well. I needed a downstairs room it did not feel safe with this broken lock.

    This place is run by foreigners. There is no coffee maker. There is no side table lamps. There is no hairdryer. Furthermore, they don't tell you even where to get coffee. You have to figure that out on your own. The only plus side to this place is it is close to the ocean, and you do have access to it. By the way, the beds are hard as brickbat. Out of all the places i've stayed, I would give this place a one I had a five stars

    Only thing I hated was the thin sheet

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Nothing The room had mold mildew wet floors flies the TV cut off at midnight the beds were s*** the room was filthy they do not clean very well

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Overall, I had a pleasant stay here. My only complaint was the check in time took WAY too long and it was really hot outside. I ended up waiting in the heat for almost an hour.

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    For the price, the location was decent & the room was decent for the price as well. But for the price it’s not a bad place to stay the night. The guy at the front didn’t stand up to greet you. Can do better with cleaning, strands of hair throughout bathroom & shower. Also no REAL blanket on the bed, just a “sheet” on top of the flat sheet.

    Roaches everywhere probably the worst experience I ever had definitely would take them off the list

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    It was clean and close to everything. Just the parking little tight on 07/04/26 weekend.

    All

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Disgusting. Huge dead . Dead smashed bug on wall. Floors were black after wiping with a towel. Bed was slept in. Absolutely probably the worst hotel I’ve ever been at.

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Woke up to people screaming about a domestic violence and then 7 cops show up to arrest the woman

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    The room was very clean. Bed was comfortable. The best part was the access to the beach.
