Everything was excellent
What a great property right off the beach. Great restaurants nearby. Air conditioner worked great. We could hear the waves all night long. Could see the ocean from our balcony

Pongo 3 estrellas porque enseguida de nuestro cuarto estaba construyendo otro cuarto nuevo. Nunca fueron para avisarnos que iba a pasar esto, entonces fue incómodo despertarse con sonidos de construcción, en un lugar donde se busca tranquilidad.
En general el hotel vale totalmente la pena, entiendo que lo sucedido conmigo es algo de una sola vez (espero), lo recomiendo muchisimo

Unfortunately, I had reserved a quiet room. But first of all there was building work done within the property which had noise all day. And at night it was very noisy with music bands. It was defenetly not a stay for a person that will like to rest!

Room had no curtains with bright lights from street shining in…. was in unsafe location for children, smelled Moldy and was right beside septic, very smelly. I would not recommend this hotel for the price they charge.

Reserved the total view room which was amazing, 100 stairs up. Sketchy stairs and ramps! Good food, nice folks. Fun international vibe. Perfect beach location.
Could not book direct on their web site, Hotels.com made it easy. They don't have quite the long list of rules sent before check in, thankfully

The posada has comfortable beds and it was very clean. The only problem we had was the wifi because we couldn’t access it from our room. We had to go to the lobby to be able to have a stable connection. It’s a good place to stay if u do not care for the wifi.

Do not recommend…. Cheaper places that are better
The walls had stains on them. The shower water pressure was not strong enough to take sand off our bodies. There was a leak in the bathroom sink.
The coffee maxhine & cups were dirty also.

Yes!
This place is fantastic. Right on the beach -- the location can't be beat. The restaurant has the best view in town. The wifi isn't reliable but mostly works. If you need to work from your room, I recommend getting a local sim card and using a hot spot. That's what I did for some zoom meetings.
The rooms are cleaned five times a week, and the towels and sheets are changed often -- which was great. The staff is super friendly, as well as the other guests.
There could be noise from the bars on the street at night and some mild construction noise during the day.
I highly recommend the place!
