The hotel is in the quieter side of Samara, yet close to the beach and to restaurants. It has a casual atmosphere. The weekly market is directly behind the hotel, a grocery store is a block away and there’s a great soda(Mister Warners) and seafood restaurant (Malibu) less than a 2 minute walk away.

This is a lovely inexpensive place to stay in Samara. It is only a block away from the beach and close to everything, but quiet and safe. Breakfast is included, which is convenient. Ryan was very helpful in answering all our questions and finding information for us.

Would stay here again
The staff were very friendly. We enjoyed the free tea and coffee and the breakfast was filling. The air conditioning in the room chilled.it quickly. Only concern was that the building work on it started early in the morning. From an 8 year old: I loved the pool so much.

Excellent value. Staff very friendly and helpful. Apologetic for construction to repair apparent storm damage. Will definitely be coming back to stay again for a longer stretch. Very close to beach and downtown.
