My wife and I prepaid for an 8 night stay at Marcela and left after 2 nights to move to a different hotel and different part of town. Positives: friendly staff, large room more like an apartment than a hotel room, outstanding views of the city (we booked the top floor suite), reasonable kitchen. Negatives: Way too many steps to get down to the beach and food shopping, you must be in very good shape and willing to climb - we found it too inconvenient as I had a sore back, laundry worked but made loud noises and sounded like it was on its last legs, shower drain did not clear so water was a few inches deep by end of shower, communication with staff only through WhatsApp not ideal, noisy environment around the hotel while we were there, hotel pool excessively crowded. Overall nice large room and a great view, but because of location and lack of amenities we decided to go somewhere else

Ok not great. Pictures better than reality.

The hotel is ok. We actually came on this trip to see if we wanted to stay here for Thanksgiving and are choosing another property instead. It is just not very polished, the pictures are definitely better than the reality. There were some noise issues as well as the rooms are all connecting rooms and the space underneath the door is quite a large gap as well as the doors being thin. One night the noise from a neighbor property was like a night club from about 3am to 5am. There was also an issue with the keys one day and they texted us - which was great but we had to leave dinner and uber back to the hotel because otherwise there would be no attendant on property and no way for us to get the new keys. Luckily our dinner wasn’t too far away. I wouldn’t say that we would refuse to stay here again but just think there are better options.
