Disliked: Cleanliness
This little hotel is not old - it’s ok, the restaurant is ok and the staff at the restaurant give great friendly service. There’s really nothing to do next to this little hotel and the biggest downside was that they insisted on playing loud loud music until 2 AM even when there was no one at the restaurant or near the pool it didn’t matter myself and others had to go complain several times consistently to get them to shut it off even around 2 AM. That was the only real negative part of my experience.

El lugar es muy bonito pero le falta mucho por crecer para comenzar la piscina se veía verde y sucia obviamente no le dan mantenimiento, pedí un cóctel de conchas q estaba en el menú pero no tenían 😕 , el wifi era muy malo la habitación era pequeña pero estaba bonita, la TV no servía y cuando hicimos el check out no había nadie cuando se supone que abren de 8am a 10pm le entregamos las llaves a una mesera. muy mala experiencia

El único inconveniente es que están construyendo la carretera y el acceso al hotel está confuso. Podrían detallar mejor la llegada al hotel en estos momentos. Por lo demás todo está muy bien.
