Disliked: Cleanliness
I have stayed at this hotel before with no problems but last night was horrible because it wasn’t until late last night that I discovered that I was in the roach motel. It was so horrible, I called the office and nobody answered. So I sent a text message, again no response. I will not be back for awhile , hopefully they will fix the problem and exterminate.

Place is a little run down but nice location. Access to the beach across the road was the best part of the trip. Staff could barely speak English and had to call a translator to finish our stay. They were very nice people and the rooms were nice, just a little dirty.

Value for the price

It has so much potential to be great! The hotel was very fun down, But it’s the value for the price. Staff was friendly and we had everything we needed for an overnight stay.

The staff was wonderful and friendly. The room was small but clean and comfortable. Beach access was not close, but there was a beach view from the room.

The price was right. However, the saying is true that you get what you pay for. Parking was no problem and you can see the beach from the window. After the noise stopped around midnight (sounded like furniture was being moved) but we never looked. We fell asleep. Actually got a good night sleep. A/C worked very well. The main thing is it’s not kept up. Things that get broken just stay that way, I guess. No towel or toilet paper bars, bathroom door knob was very loose and just needed tightened, cabinet under the sink had water damage so was screwed shut, soap holder in shower was broken. Sheets and floors were clean and we were very thankful for that!

This place is terrible, mysterious, and looks like a crime scene. Please do not go there or make any booking. They steal my money and never return or give me a room. Someone should take serious action against them and shut down this fraud and scam, which is completely ongoing here.
