Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Man musste nur über die kleine Straße gehen und war direkt am Strand. Tolle Lage, wir hatten sogar ein Zimmer mit Meerblick. Direkt gegenüber war ein Club, da kann es auch mal bis in den frühen Morgen lauter werden - aber das hat uns das Hotel von Anfang gesagt, also super Kommunikation. Das Personal war auch sehr freundlich.

Great property, beautiful room and view, excellent staff and breakfast. We were nervous about noise levels as it is across bars and a hostel is right behind, but had no issues at all. Just make sure the balcony doors are closed and AC is on :)

Beautiful, comfortable, helpful

Alfredo and Nelly were super helpful. They arranged rides to and from the airport and to all the activities we wanted. They helped find out cost, reserve trips with guides, coordinate timetables and figure out what we wanted. The rooms were clean and super comfortable and we watched a beautiful beach sunset from our patio daily. The included breakfast was Nicaraguan standard fair: fresh, simple, and delicious. It was lout throughout the weekend with its proximity to nightclubs, but it wasn’t too bad. We slept great while we were there.

Great location. Attentive staff. Amazing breakfast! However, reading the reviews prior regard noise was definitely helpful. It’s noisy! Earplugs are a must. But the location was very central so perfect for walking/adventuring around town.

Liked: Staff & service
I recently stayed at this hotel and had a mixed experience. The noise from Club Arribas between 11 PM and 3 AM was brutal; the earplugs provided at check-in hinted at the issue. Additionally, I noticed some stained linen sheets and curtains, but despite these drawbacks, Room 7 was a beautiful choice, especially with its spacious terrace.

Lost a diamond ring set. - perdí un par d Anillos

I lost a diamond ring set. I was going to proposed to my girlfriend and when I look for the rings they’re were missing. I called management to file a complaint and they told the housekeeper that cleaned the room has gone to vacation. They said they were going to ask her whenever she gets back. No bueno.
