Great if you just want a affordable stay.

The place was decent for the price and once i got there i understood why it was so much cheaper than Las Americas, the hotel I usually stay. Positives: price, location close to airport, comfy beds Negatives: does not look like pictures online, pool.area always crowded and very small, complicated beach access, breakfast was horrible
