We arrived and they told us there were no blankets in the whole hotel. It was late at night and they simply had NO BLANKETS. The place was SO LOUD that our bed was jumping from the noise of Señor Frogs across the street. They then refused to give us refund. NEVER BOOK THIS ROOM

We liked that it was near all the shops and restaurants but didn't like the poor sanitation in this hotel. The noise of loud music is very annoying.

No phone in the room. Was given a room on 5th floor but there was no elevator. Even for a small thing, had to go down 64 steps to communicate-that also with great difficulty. Later on, realized they communicate thru WhatsApp. Toilet flush was not working properly despite them sending someone to repair. No tissue box in the room and they asked to use toilet paper instead. Ocean view room is a sham-You have to look at some dirty/weird rooftops before you can see ocean. Some staff were really nice. For breakfast, we had to go to their sister hotel which was a 2 minute walk but they had very limited option and anything other than the item that day had to be paid-And language? Biggest problem. Had to use google translator with most of the staff. Won't stay again here.
