The place wasnt bad but definitely not what was advertised in pictures. Not 100% clean and nothing but not extremely dirty. Shower was broken and took long for water to turn hot. No windows felt like a prison kind of.

My spouse and I spent three days here. While the location is great—close to the beach and several restaurants—we were disappointed by a few things. The towels had an unpleasant smell, and there was a lot of noise from the hallway; we could hear every step, and people were shouting during the night. It affected the quality of our stay. We asked to extend our stay by just one hour, but were told it would cost an additional $50. There was also no place to store our luggage after check-out, so we gave up on the idea.

Para comenzar, tienen dos conplejos que se llaman igual. El GPS nos dejó en el segundo complejo. Entramos con la clave, pero el apartamento que reservamos se identifica con letra. Al llamar al contacto de reservación no respondian. Mi pareja comenzó a dar vueltas por los apartamentos incluyendo el primer complejo y asi pudo encontrar la reservación. Llamamos a otros números, escribimos por la app y tampoco respondian. Como a la media hora nos informan que era otro complejo, pero ya lo habiamos encontrado. Las fotos que muestran en la app son de otro complejo mucho mas lindo, no del que nos quedamos. Uno de los televisores no tenia control. Los receptaculos no tenian corriente, solo multiplug de la cocina. Y habia una gotera del techo en el area del comedor. Por lo demas estuvo bien. Buena cama, aire, buen baño. Cerca de todo en Isla Verde. Si tiene parking aunque la app dice que no. En general estuvo bastante bien, solo esos detalles.

We had a really disappointing experience at this place. We tried calling the host for over 3 hours and never got a response, which left us stuck without access. When we finally got in, the space was dirty and clearly not prepared for a new guest. The showerhead was also hanging and barely attached, which made using it very uncomfortable and unsafe. Overall, poor communication and lack of basic maintenance really ruined the stay.

Las instalaciones sucias, faltas de atención y mantenimiento. Nadie sabía donde estaba mi habitación. Después de 8 llamadas, me respondieron que ellos estaban en “Bali” y que no sabían qué habitación me tocaba. Después de mas de 3 horas nos tuvimos que ir y quedarnos en otro hotel. NO RECOMIENDO A NADIE QUEDARSE AQUI!!!!
