The room was clean. Great location. Pool area could have had a couple more umbrellas. It was very hot and there was only one umbrella set up. Other than that it was a good hotel. Breakfast was good as well.

This is a great hotel if you want to be near everything. Is only a couple of blocks from our favorite restaurant Ah Caramba. Couple blocks from the Malecon and market. Tons of restaurants in any direction and a public beach around the corner. The staff was always friendly
Our room was perfect, beds are comfortable. We had a street face balcony. It is noisy, but we thought it was funny and part of the charm.
The beach is just around the corner, great beach, beautiful views and water.

Great location at the Malecon, PV. Easy access to beautiful beache, bus, hikes, taxi, grocery store, theater and many small restaurants and bars. Breakfast and coffee on the top floor was OK. Friendly staff at the dining area and front desk. I would stay there again likely in the future.

I liked my stay, and I would come back, I just think some of your staff needs some retraining, the breakfast ladies were great, when I left. The front desk just said, that's all, not how was your stay, good morning, you need a taxi, come back, nothing. I think they could do better, having said that, I would probably go back.

We stayed for two nights in Feb, 2025. Very good stay, recommended for a nice central location, easy access to busses, and lots of street food, and restaurants. The breakfast was also very good, hot food, and coffee, we sat outside and enjoyed the morning sun while we ate. Staff were all very attentive to anything we needed.
