Great value and enjoyed my stay, would recommend! Pros: the location is good, maybe 10 minutes to the beach/5th ave, 2 blocks to Mega, 6 to Walmart. Good, well priced restaurants. The staff were all friendly and exceptional at keeping things clean. Cons: Electricity was down for 1 day, as a planned outage but it was okay, I just escaped for the day, however the elevator remained out of service the following day which was painful (6 floors up). I enjoyed the kitchen but it would be nice to have some basics like oil, salt and pepper, plastic cups for the pool. The hallways and elevator do not have AC so it gets very hot as they are not ventilated. Overall, great value for the price.

The hotel was perfect. Very clean and new Close to everything. The public beach was less then 10 min walk. Lots of restaurants to choose from. Mega mart and wal mart really close. Roof top garden was awesome. I will never go to a all inclusive again.

El hotel muy bueno, en nuestro caso en particular, el baño necesita mantenimiento de pintura y algunas veces se siente un olor a cañería muy desagradable. Tuvimos problema con el internet el primer día. Lo demás todo súper bien.

Firstly someone went through my stored luggage in their “secured” area and stole my Bluetooth speaker and didn’t even bother zipping my luggage back up all the way. No checkin instructions or how to connect Wifi - drunk noisy guests going in and out of rooms and yelling in stairways at 12-3am

Good Value

Loved the location of Sofia and the pool. We stayed two nights. For longer stays I'd want a bit more spaceand amenities. It can be noisy in the hotel and outside, but that's typical. All in all, a good value.

The condo was conveniently located near many restaurants and grocery stores. The staff was very helpful. The only challenge is that it can be very loud at times. The noise from other rooms echoed so bring ear plugs to get a good nights sleep.

I would rate this properly an overall 7/10. You practically get what you pay for. I’m going to write this review based on pros and cons. First the pros; the rooftop pool is really nice, the rooms are really nice LOOKING, the staff are kind, the location is great. Now the cons; the walls are thin and you can hear your neighbors and they’re also doing construction next door, the “Jacuzzi” is not a jacuzzi but instead a small pool that’s the same temperature as the normal pool, the first floor elevator area is extremely hot, THE BED AND PILLOWS ARE UNCOMFORTABLE. Overall 7/10.

The hotel is centrally located. Close to a big supermarket, which is nice to do some cooking in the room. The beach is about a 10 to 15 minute walk. And lots of restaurants close by. My only negative part is that you didn’t clean your room till later in the day.

More detail to cleaning

There was long dark hair all over the room, quite disturbing. There was a cook top but no pots, one glass, 2 dirty forks, no spoons (tough to eat our yogurt in the morning). There was just sheets, no comforter. First impressions where it was a pretty room, but we were very disappointed with the cleanliness.

Cute property friendly staff

Perfect location I’d you want to be within walking distance of 5th Ave. located by two night clubs so it’s loud at night. Staff was extremely helpful, friendly and efficient. Pay parking outside 10 pesos/ hr until 10pm. Decent complimentary breakfast in lobby. Gated entrance. Front desk always open. Spacious rooms comfortable beds. Common areas. Property a bit dated and a little loud at night otherwise would give it a 5 star. Thank you
