Great Stay with Wonderful Highlights Our Expedia booking turned out great! The airport staff was super helpful, arranging taxis and even letting us grab waters and snacks before heading to our accommodations. Though the gated entrance was a bit hidden, our room was clean, clutter-free, and cozy. The bed was very comfy, and while the thin windows allowed some traffic noise, it was mostly quiet at night. There was a faint smell of bug spray and a few bugs, but it didn’t detract from the overall experience. Our host, Jesus, was fantastic, providing fresh towels and passes to a lively, luxurious beach club that was truly a highlight. We also loved the rooftop area with a small, clean pool, perfect for relaxing. The property felt safe, with plenty of shops, dining, and entertainment within walking distance. While the TV didn’t work, the Wi-Fi was reliable, and the affordable price made it all worthwhile. We’d absolutely stay here again!

All I want to say is the buzzer is not working and my phone wasn’t working, so I couldn’t call the number to get into the property. It’s important to take care of the basics; don’t make your guests wait in the rain.

Pésima experiencia. La habitación que nos tocó olía a humedad, había comida echada a perder en el frigobar, las toallas húmedas, en recepción no había nadie, nos mandaron la llave con otra persona ajena al hotel. El teléfono que ponen en la entrada para cualquier cosa, contesta una agencia de viajes y no te resuelve nada referente a este hotel. Termine solicitando la cancelación

Don't do it.

Hard to find, and no check in concierge. As I was waiting, a local couple came out pretty drunk and it was clear what they were just finished doing. Thoroughly disgusted with this place.

The apartment is older. Which is fine. But it really was not clean. There was someone else’s food in the fridge as well as used shampoo and used soap in the shower. The shower has soap scum up the walls. The bed sheets were clean and that’s the only reason we stayed.
