Great service at the counter but the AC in Room #222 was loud. I asked to switch my room but they said that they are fully booked. I can understand that and I know that the employee would give me one if they had it. They were trying. So I gave a 4-star instead if a usual 3-star for malfunctioning AC on a hot island

We stayed on the last night of our Puerto Rico trip to be near the airport and our rental car return. The property is older and well worn, the pool was below our room and filled with noisy kids having fun and making noise til after midnight. It was okay for the price and our particular needs for the one night.

Misleading rooms!!! Looks NOTHING like the photos. It’s dirty, everything is outdated. Parking was a hassle, Elevator doesn’t work. There was squished bugs all over the room… I can adjust in any setting, I had a great time and everyone was very friendly. The only thing I don’t appreciate is the misleading photos. Update your pictures so we know what we are getting into! The rooms look nothing like the photos at all. On a positive note, the employees were very kind and friendly. I felt safe. Pool was great. Location was great.
