You pay for what you get, pretty inexpensive place BUT if youre planning to satay longer than a weekend, this is not the place, there was a dead bug when i arrived in my room, the sliding door to the balcony didn't work, the water on the shower was yellow, the bed was too hard imo, ac didnt work, tried to call the staff to address the ac but they didn't pick up, elevator buttons dont work. Its an ok place to stay for a weekend if you plan on exploring instead of saying at the hotel but definitely not a place to stay and rest.

We have stayed here about 5 times. The rooms aren’t 5 star but have always been keep up. Last night we got the room definitely in need of restoration. It was on the back side and really rough. I booked online to confirm we would find room as was a holiday weekend. They said at checkout that the good rooms were full. Recommend looking at room prior to payment if possible.

Expedia definitely needs to be updated with proper photos, this place is old and worn down, our room was nasty, black mold on the walls, ceiling, and in the tile grout, floors felt nasty and sticky and left our feet black after walking barefoot in our room after just being there for the first few minutes! The bedding was paper thin and we asked for more blankets and our request was ignored over and over, never got them. The pool was decent as well as the AC, the only postives I have for it and being across the beach was nice but I did not feel clean staying here!
