Nice hotel right in the beach. Beautiful view and warm lovely pool. Served us a light breakfast every day. Most importantly was its great location just a couple of blocks from Malecon bay.
Clean well situated, def budget hotel. Had to check out an iron and hair dryer for an hour. Breakfast restaurant is a joke, really unorganized, food is meh. But it will keep you going, nice little mex cafe around the corner. I d stay again but bring a hair dryer and washcloths! Nothing provided unless you asked.

Liked: Cleanliness
The toilet seats are off soft plastic so you sink when you seat. They are not very clear on how to use your breakfast pass. The kitchen and staff crew are not very friendly. The room cleaning service very good
Here’s a polished rewrite of your review:

The room and all common areas were very clean, and the staff was excellent. The location is great—close to many restaurants and just a few blocks from the Malecón. The beach area is a bit rocky, but the pool definitely makes up for it. The restaurant prices were reasonable, and it’s a good spot for food to relax by the pool. Overall, no complaints at all about this hotel.
Room was very clean. Close to the Malecón within walking distance. Good breakfast.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Staff were nice, the room was small and very dark. The "breakfast included" was a small portion of a fruit, and a bun. We had to ask for jam, it was not offered.
Our room had a nice balcony with ocean and pool views. The hotel is pretty dated but the beds were comfy and the room was big. The only thing was a lack of plug in outlets in the room.

Liked: Property conditions & facilities
Staff were courteous but not outgoing or super friendly. Due to a booking error with Expedia, we had to pay extra for our kids as there was no option to choose number of people in the room at time of booking. Room was all we needed but very basic. Location and view from the balcony however, was spectacular! Walking distance to everything you need in old PV.
