This place is really made mostly for Mexican families like a previous review mentioned. If you are coming from the states this is not your best option! Most bartenders & food service staff were rude! Food wasn’t pleasing, pool was dirty (didn’t seem like it got filtered & there was a water leak on the roof in our room (maybe AC unit problems)! Stayed here 4 nights & definitely wouldn’t book here again!

old hotel, makes Super 8 look good

Pros: beach access
Cons: everything - rooms, amenities, food
Location: right on beach and across from great restaurants and shops
Requested 2 rooms next to each other because traveling with kids - did not get it. Asked for 2 rooms with 2 beds each, did not get it. Only had 1 outlet in the room, loud music until midnight right outside window - no water (sink, shower, toilet - had to request it turned on) - kids rooms could not control temp. Food was OK, but bland.

Great beach location.

Overall a good experience. Hotel was a little dated but very clean. Great value for families traveling with children. Only complaint I would state was that our room delivery was delayed from 300pm until about 500pm because of the amount of traffic.
